Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional user experience systems are inaccurate, inefficient, and inflexible in gathering and analyzing user feedback, as they often categorize user experiences broadly, miss specific aspects of user satisfaction, and are limited to known issues without identifying new problems.

Innovation Solution

The system utilizes a theme-classifying machine-learning model to generate theme classifications from unstructured text, associating these classifications with experience scores, and performing actions based on the analysis, thereby improving accuracy, efficiency, and flexibility in understanding user experiences.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional systems use surveys with defined questions to gather user experience information, then they can receive structured feedback, but they lose valuable user insights relating to discrete portions of the online transaction experience

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of user experience dataVSAvoidloss of specific aspect insights
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments user experience feedback into discrete themes and aspects using machine learning classification. Instead of treating user feedback as a single broad category, the system divides it into specific thematic segments (e.g., billing, customer service, product features) allowing precise analysis of discrete portions of the user experience while maintaining overall context.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical survey question system with an automated machine learning-based text analysis system. Natural language processing algorithms automatically classify and categorize unstructured user feedback, eliminating the need for predefined survey questions while extracting specific aspect information that would be lost in conventional approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Loss of information

If conventional systems direct users to successive graphical user interfaces to answer multiple questions, then they can gather detailed information, but they require tremendous time and computing resources to complete

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of user feedbackVSAvoidtime to complete survey
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple survey questions and feedback collection steps into a single unified process. By analyzing unstructured text feedback in one pass using machine learning, the system simultaneously extracts multiple information elements that would otherwise require separate questions, dramatically reducing completion time while maintaining information completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The machine learning system performs self-service analysis of user feedback without requiring users to navigate multiple interfaces or answer structured questions. The automated classification process independently extracts and categorizes information from unstructured text, eliminating the time-consuming manual survey completion process while gathering comprehensive feedback.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If conventional systems only ask questions about known issues, then they can gather feedback on existing problems, but they cannot identify additional issues or problems without expending additional time and computing resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility in identifying issuesVSAvoidtime and resources to identify new issues
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic feedback analysis system using machine learning that can adapt to identify both known and emerging issues. The classification model continuously learns from new data patterns, automatically adjusting to recognize novel problems without requiring predefined question structures, thereby maintaining flexibility while minimizing additional resource expenditure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary analysis of unstructured feedback text to identify potential new issues before they are formally categorized. By pre-processing and classifying all user feedback through machine learning, the system proactively detects emerging patterns and novel problems that would otherwise require additional survey iterations to discover.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
