Solution Overview

Problem

The challenge in video advertising is predicting the effectiveness of video advertisements, as factors like increasing diversity, competition, cultural changes, and technological innovation make it difficult for advertisers to determine the best strategies for their campaigns, leading to potential inefficiencies in video advertising investments.

Innovation Solution

A predictive video advertising effectiveness analysis system that uses a computing environment to analyze video data, identify attributes, correlate them with past ads, and estimate the effectiveness of new ads based on metrics like click-through rates, brand recall, and other measures, providing insights for improving ad performance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If video advertising production is increased to meet diverse consumer needs, then advertising coverage and consumer engagement are improved, but production time and cost increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising coverageVSAvoidproduction time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of video advertisements before they are fully produced or deployed. By analyzing attributes such as visual content, audio elements, and structure in advance, the system predicts effectiveness metrics like click-through rates and brand recall, allowing advertisers to optimize ads before full production completion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates a digital model or copy of the video advertisement that can be analyzed independently. This digital representation allows for repeated analysis, comparison with similar ads, and prediction of performance without requiring physical production changes, thus saving time while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Adaptability or versatility

If video advertising production is increased to meet diverse consumer needs, then advertising coverage and consumer engagement are improved, but production cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising coverageVSAvoidproduction cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service analysis where the video advertisement analyzes itself by automatically extracting attributes and predicting effectiveness. This eliminates the need for expensive manual analysis by advertising agencies, allowing advertisers to evaluate their own ads using automated computational methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical analysis processes with automated computational systems. Instead of requiring human analysts to review each advertisement detail, the system uses computer-based attribute extraction and prediction algorithms, significantly reducing labor costs while maintaining comprehensive analysis capability.

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

3Measurement precision

If manual analysis of video ads is performed to determine effectiveness, then measurement precision is improved, but time consumption and operational complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffectiveness measurementVSAvoidoperational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The video advertisement system performs self-analysis by automatically extracting its own attributes such as visual content, audio elements, and structural characteristics. This self-service approach eliminates the need for complex manual analysis operations while maintaining precise measurement of effectiveness metrics through automated computational methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces complex manual analysis operations with automated computational algorithms that efficiently extract and analyze advertisement attributes. This substitution simplifies the operational process while maintaining high measurement precision through systematic computer-based evaluation of visual and audio characteristics.

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

AI summary

Effectiveness of video content is predicted using an automated or semi-automated analysis process operating on a computer. Video content is analyzed using image and audio data processing to assign a collection of attributes to a video ad. The collection of attributes is correlated to a historical effectiveness (e.g., click-thru rate) of past video ads in the same or similar attribute space to obtain predicted ad effectiveness. Differences between the collection of attributes and historical attribute spaces of greater effectiveness may also be determined and reported in the form of suggestions for improving the effectiveness of the ad.
