Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems fail to effectively analyze and utilize purchase data to optimize user interfaces for increasing purchases by personalizing product recommendations based on customer purchasing patterns, leading to missed opportunities for vendors.

Innovation Solution

A system that collects and analyzes purchase data from various sources, including order data, user data, and social media data, to generate confidence scores and patterns, which are used to create rules for modifying user interfaces, such as pricing and product placement, to encourage specific purchases.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the system collects and analyzes purchase data from multiple sources to generate confidence scores and patterns, then the ability to personalize user interfaces and increase purchases is improved, but the system complexity and data processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex data analysis task into distinct components: collecting data from multiple sources (order data, user data, social media data), generating confidence scores for purchased goods, identifying purchase patterns, and creating personalized rules. Each segment handles a specific aspect of the overall personalization process, making the system more manageable despite its complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by collecting and analyzing purchase data in advance to generate confidence scores and identify patterns before the user actually makes a purchase. This preliminary analysis enables the system to pre-generate personalized rules and configure user interfaces optimally when the user returns, rather than analyzing data in real-time during the purchase decision moment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Measurement precision

If the system generates detailed confidence scores and purchase patterns to create personalized rules, then the accuracy of product recommendations is improved, but the computational resources and processing time required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs computationally intensive data analysis, confidence score generation, and pattern identification in advance during off-peak times. The results are stored as pre-generated rules that can be quickly applied when the user returns to the website or application, significantly reducing the processing time required at the moment of purchase decision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses confidence scores as a feedback mechanism to prioritize which patterns and rules to generate. By assigning confidence levels to different purchase patterns based on the quality and consistency of the underlying data, the system can focus computational resources on generating high-confidence recommendations that are most likely to be accurate and useful.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If the system modifies user interfaces based on identified patterns to promote specific items, then the purchase total is increased, but the ease of interface design and maintenance deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepurchase totalVSAvoidinterface design ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements dynamic user interfaces that automatically adjust based on the generated rules and identified patterns. Rather than requiring manual design of multiple static interface variants, the system dynamically configures the interface presentation (such as highlighting specific items, adjusting prices, or modifying layouts) based on the user's purchase history and the confidence scores associated with different recommendation patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables the user interface to self-configure based on the automatically generated rules. When a user returns to the website or application, the system autonomously applies the appropriate rules to modify the interface presentation without requiring manual intervention from designers or developers, making the interface adaptive while reducing design maintenance burden.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for user interface generation for transacting goods are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes receiving order data, user data, and other data. The method further includes determining, for a particular user, an order confidence score that corresponds to a likelihood that the particular user ordered a particular good from a particular vendor on a particular day. The method further includes receiving vendor-type mapping data. The method further includes determining a good-type confidence score that corresponds to the likelihood that the particular good or the particular vendor is associated with a particular type of good. The method further includes determining a composite confidence score. The method further includes storing the composite confidence score, data identifying the particular user, data identifying the particular type of good, and data identifying the particular date.
