Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data-communications systems face challenges in efficiently configuring virtual assistants to improve interactions with clients based on analysis of digital voice data and text-based messages, particularly in identifying keywords and sentiments to enhance customer service and call routing.

Innovation Solution

A data-communications server system that captures and analyzes digital voice data to identify keywords and sentiments, correlates them with text-based messages, and configures virtual assistants to provide dynamic responses tailored to client-specific criteria, using processing circuitry to enhance interaction quality and routing decisions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If virtual assistants are configured using traditional methods, then setup is simple, but they cannot provide context-aware responses based on analyzed conversation data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontext-aware response capabilityVSAvoidconfiguration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of digital voice data and text-based messages to extract keywords and sentiments before configuring the virtual assistant. This pre-processing enables the assistant to be pre-configured with context-aware responses based on actual conversation patterns, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system analyzes conversation data and uses this feedback to automatically configure virtual assistant responses. By continuously learning from actual client interactions and adjusting assistant configurations accordingly, the system achieves context-awareness without requiring complex manual setup, thus resolving the technical contradiction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If conversation data is analyzed to identify keywords and sentiments, then virtual assistant responses become more accurate, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvekeyword and sentiment identification accuracyVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential information (keywords and sentiments) from the conversation data rather than processing the entire dataset. By taking out only the critical features needed for accurate response generation, the system achieves high measurement precision while minimizing processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The keyword and sentiment analysis is performed as a preliminary action during data collection, so that when the virtual assistant needs to respond, the analysis is already complete. This pre-extraction of meaningful features eliminates the need for time-consuming real-time analysis, resolving the contradiction between accuracy and processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If virtual assistants are customized for each client, then service quality improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveclient-specific customization capabilityVSAvoidsystem configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service customization by automatically analyzing client-specific conversation data and configuring virtual assistant responses without requiring manual intervention. The system serves itself by extracting client-specific patterns and autonomously adjusting configurations, thereby achieving high adaptability while keeping operational complexity low.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Client-specific customization is performed as a preliminary action during the data analysis phase. The system pre-configures client-specific responses based on analyzed conversation patterns before actual interactions occur. This advance preparation enables personalized service quality while avoiding complex real-time configuration, resolving the contradiction between customization capability and system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

In one example, a server system interfaces with a plurality of remotely-situated client entities to provide data communications services. The system uses processing circuitry for: accessing an archive of digital voice data indicative of transcribed audio conversations respectively involving different client stations participating in data communications; correlating a text-based message received by a virtual assistant and associated with one of the different client entities, with at least one intent or at least one topic associated with the archived digital voice data; and automatically configuring the virtual assistant, based on the text-based message being correlated and via the data-processing computer circuitry, to address or otherwise process the received text-based message.
