Solution Overview

Problem

Current clothing customization methods are insufficient in meeting user requirements as they primarily offer limited options for fabric selection and washing effects, lacking an online platform for personalized customization.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a terminal device and a server that allows users to select fabrics and display corresponding washing effects, using a washing prediction model to generate customized clothing orders based on fabric attributes and user selections.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If clothing customization is done with few options, then the customization process is simple, but it is insufficient in meeting users' customization requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomization optionsVSAvoidcustomization system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The customization system is segmented into multiple independent modules: fabric selection module, washing method selection module, washing effect prediction module, and order generation module. Each module handles a specific aspect of customization, allowing users to access diverse customization options through a structured, manageable interface that doesn't overwhelm users despite the complexity of available choices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

A washing effect prediction model acts as an intermediary between fabric selection and final customization display. The model automatically predicts washing effects based on fabric attributes, bridging the gap between user fabric choices and the resulting customized clothing appearance, thereby enabling extensive customization options without requiring users to manually configure complex parameters

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If multiple washing effects are predicted and displayed, then user experience is enhanced, but data processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoiddata processing
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-training a washing effect prediction model with extensive fabric-washing data before actual use. The model is pre-configured with knowledge of how different fabrics respond to various washing methods, enabling it to quickly predict washing effects during user interaction without requiring complex real-time calculations, thus enhancing user experience while managing data processing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses a trained prediction model that copies learned patterns from training data to predict washing effects. Instead of processing raw fabric attribute data through complex algorithms during user interaction, the system applies the copied knowledge from the trained model to generate washing effect predictions, simplifying real-time data processing while maintaining high user experience quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an order generation method, a data processing method, a device, a system, and a storage medium. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, first, a terminal device displays an order page; and then, after a selection operation is performed on at least one to-be-selected fabric, at least one washing effect corresponding to the selected fabric is acquired using a washing prediction model and displayed; and finally, a selection operation is performed on the at least one washing effect; a customized clothing order for the selected fabric is generated according to the selected washing effect. In this way, users may select fabrics via a terminal device, and a washing effect corresponding to a selected fabric may be directly displayed for the users' selection, thus achieving on-line clothing customization and enhancing user experience.
