Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems for detecting transient events in mortgage applications suffer from overinflation of submitted loan applications due to redundant data, leading to inaccurate performance metric calculations and inefficient processing, which affects strategic business decisions and data management.

Innovation Solution

A transient event detection system that organizes node data into groupings based on shared attributes, processes these groupings using a node grouping processing scheme, and identifies transient events, thereby reducing processing burdens and improving data accuracy.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional systems process all submitted loan applications individually, then each application receives full processing attention, but processing time and computational resources increase significantly due to redundant data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing efficiencyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system merges multiple loan application data records that represent the same transient event into a single processed unit by identifying shared attributes (applicant ID, property address, loan amount). This consolidation eliminates redundant processing of identical events while maintaining comprehensive analysis, directly resolving the contradiction between individual processing attention and processing efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If the system stores and processes all loan application data without filtering, then data completeness is maintained, but memory requirements and processing burden increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata accuracyVSAvoiddata volume
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts and removes redundant duplicate records from the loan application dataset by comparing shared attributes across records. This extraction process eliminates unnecessary data copies while preserving the complete set of unique transient events, thereby reducing data volume and processing burden while maintaining data accuracy and reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Measurement precision

If conventional systems calculate performance metrics using all submitted applications including duplicates, then comprehensive metric coverage is achieved, but metric accuracy decreases due to overinflation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemetric accuracyVSAvoidmetric distortion
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system converts the harmful effect of redundant data (which causes metric overinflation and distortion) into a benefit by using the redundancy as an identification marker for transient events. By detecting records with identical shared attributes, the system identifies and consolidates duplicates, transforming what was previously a source of error into a mechanism for improving metric accuracy and eliminating distortion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)

AI summary

A device includes processing circuitry configured to receive node data including attributes from at least one computing device, organize the node data into one or more node groupings, wherein each node grouping includes nodes of the node data having one or more shared attributes, determine a node grouping processing scheme based on one or more transient event detection priorities, and detect, in response to executing the node grouping processing scheme for each of the one or more node groupings, one or more transient event occurrences within the one or more node groupings.
