User Attribute Prediction via Behavioral Fuzzy Logic
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to determine users' attributes for those who do not provide them, hindering personalized experiences such as targeted advertising and recommendations.
Innovation Solution
A model is developed to predict user attributes based on their behaviors using fuzzy logic, trained with sample data to generate probabilities for real users' attributes, which are then used to improve user experiences.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If users are required to explicitly provide their attributes during registration, then the accuracy of user attribute information is improved, but the ease of operation and user convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically infers user attributes by analyzing user behaviors such as browsing history, purchase patterns, and interaction data without requiring users to manually provide this information. The attribute inference engine processes behavioral data to generate attribute predictions, enabling the system to serve itself by extracting useful information from existing behavioral patterns rather than requiring explicit user input.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical process of manual attribute input with an automated computational system. Instead of users directly providing attribute information through forms or profiles, the system uses an attribute inference engine that processes behavioral data through algorithms to automatically determine user attributes, substituting manual information provision with automated computational inference.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a model is built to predict user attributes from behavior data, then the ability to determine attributes for non-registered users is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the attribute determination process into distinct functional modules: a data collection module that gathers behavioral information, an attribute inference engine that processes this data using trained models, and an application module that uses the inferred attributes. This segmentation allows the complex attribute prediction functionality to be implemented as a separate, manageable component that can be integrated into existing systems without overwhelming complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The attribute inference engine acts as an intermediary layer between raw behavioral data and application-level decisions. This intermediary component processes and transforms behavioral patterns into meaningful attribute predictions, shielding the rest of the system from the complexity of the underlying prediction algorithms while enabling versatile attribute determination across different applications.
Data Source
AI summary
A method, apparatus, system, article of manufacture, and computer readable storage medium provide the ability to predict and utilize a user's attributes. A sample user behavior and a sample user attribute are collected. A model is trained based on the sample user behavior and sample user attribute. Using the model, a probability of a predicted user attribute based on the sample user behavior is predicted. Using the model and the probability, the predicted user attribute is fuzzily determined based on a real user behavior. The predicted user attribute is used to improve a user's experience.
