Innovation Solution

A display method that involves acquiring content, extracting target terms using a term extraction rule, acquiring annotation information for these terms, and displaying both the content and the annotation information, thereby enhancing understanding and accuracy in natural language processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If existing natural language processing technology is used, then the processing speed is fast, but the accuracy of specialized industry terms is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveterm recognition accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the content processing into distinct stages: general NLP processing and specialized term processing. The term extraction module identifies potential terms, the term determination module verifies them against professional knowledge bases, and the annotation module adds explanations. This segmentation allows the system to apply complex term processing only where needed, improving accuracy without proportionally increasing overall system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces professional knowledge bases as intermediaries between the general NLP system and specialized term processing. These knowledge bases contain pre-stored industry terminology and definitions, acting as a mediator that enables accurate term recognition without requiring the entire system to be redesigned for each professional domain.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If manual term annotation is performed, then the accuracy of annotation information is high, but the processing efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveterm processing efficiencyVSAvoidannotation accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-service through automated term extraction and annotation generation. The term extraction module automatically identifies potential terms from content, the term determination module automatically verifies them using professional knowledge bases, and the annotation module automatically generates explanations. This automation eliminates the need for manual annotation while maintaining high accuracy through systematic verification processes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the term determination module continuously verifies extracted terms against professional knowledge bases and adjusts term identification based on verification results. This feedback loop ensures high annotation accuracy by comparing automated extractions against established professional terminology, correcting errors without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If general natural language processing is used, then the system is simple, but it cannot meet requirements of different professional fields

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprofessional field adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal term processing system that can handle multiple professional fields through a common architecture. The professional knowledge bases are designed to store terminology from various domains (medical, legal, technical, etc.), and the term extraction and determination modules can process terms from any domain by querying the appropriate knowledge base sections, making the system multi-functional without requiring separate systems for each field.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-building professional knowledge bases containing industry terminology and definitions before actual content processing. These knowledge bases are constructed in advance with curated professional terms, allowing the system to quickly adapt to different professional fields by querying pre-prepared knowledge structures rather than learning terms on-the-fly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
