Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If random matching process is used for video connection requests, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but the matching accuracy and user experience deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesimplicity of matching processVSAvoidmatching accuracy

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces user portrait parameters (interests, demographics, behavior patterns) and matching thresholds to transform the random matching process into a parameter-based filtering system. The server compares portrait parameters against threshold values to determine compatibility, thereby improving matching accuracy while maintaining system simplicity through automated parameter comparison.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces user portrait information as an intermediary element between the matching request and the connection decision. Instead of direct random pairing, the system uses portrait parameters as a mediator to evaluate compatibility before establishing connections, improving matching quality without significantly increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If user portrait information matching with thresholds is implemented, then the matching accuracy and user experience improve, but the system complexity and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvematching accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements partial matching by comparing only key portrait parameters against thresholds rather than analyzing all possible user attributes. This selective approach achieves sufficient matching accuracy while avoiding the computational overhead of comprehensive analysis, balancing precision with system complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the matching process into distinct stages: portrait parameter extraction, threshold comparison, and connection decision. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently and simplifies the overall system architecture by breaking down the complex matching task into manageable modular operations.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

3Reliability

If comprehensive user portrait matching is performed, then the user experience and connection quality improve, but the processing time and resource consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveconnection qualityVSAvoidmatching processing time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-establishing user portrait profiles and setting matching thresholds before the actual connection request is processed. This advance preparation allows the matching process to quickly compare pre-computed parameters against predefined criteria, significantly reducing real-time processing time while maintaining comprehensive matching quality.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a threshold-based filtering mechanism that allows the system to quickly skip incompatible matches by comparing portrait parameters against minimum thresholds. When parameters fall below thresholds, the system rapidly eliminates those candidates without performing detailed analysis, thereby reducing overall processing time while ensuring connection quality through threshold enforcement.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #21Skipping (Rushing through)
