Solution Overview

Problem

Current weather simulation systems fail to accurately account for correlations between historical weather data and significant events, leading to inaccurate and inefficient predictions, as they do not integrate real-time data from internet-based sources like social media, which can cause and effect weather conditions.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that generate weather simulations by creating a knowledge graph based on real-time events and environmental data, using machine learning models to associate and cluster events with geographic areas, reducing the computational resources required for data processing and improving prediction accuracy.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If current weather simulation systems use only historical climate data, then the system complexity is low, but the prediction accuracy deteriorates because they cannot account for correlations with significant real-time events

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges historical climate data with real-time data from multiple internet-based sources (social media, news outlets, blogs) into a unified weather simulation system. This combination allows the system to account for correlations between historical patterns and significant real-time events, thereby improving prediction accuracy while managing complexity through integrated data processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces machine learning models as intermediaries that automatically process and correlate data from diverse sources. These models serve as mediators between raw data and prediction outputs, handling the complexity of correlating historical climate data with significant real-time events without requiring manual system configuration, thus improving accuracy while containing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If the system integrates multiple data feeds from internet-based sources, then the prediction accuracy improves, but the computational resources required increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimulation precisionVSAvoidcomputational resources
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by using machine learning models to pre-process and filter data from multiple internet-based sources before full analysis. The system identifies and prioritizes significant events in advance, correlating them with historical climate data only when relevant, thereby reducing the overall computational burden while maintaining simulation precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts processing parameters based on the significance and relevance of real-time events. The machine learning models modify data processing intensity and depth according to event importance, allocating computational resources efficiently to maintain high simulation precision while optimizing resource usage by focusing intensive processing only on significant correlations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Loss of information

If the system processes all environmental data without filtering, then no information is lost, but the processing time and computational load increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata completenessVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by filtering environmental data based on relevance to specific geographic areas and significant events. Rather than uniformly processing all data, the system selectively processes data locally relevant to each prediction context, maintaining data completeness for important information while reducing processing time by excluding irrelevant data points.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements partial action by processing only the subset of environmental data that is most relevant to current weather conditions and significant events. The machine learning models identify and process critical data elements while skipping redundant information, thereby reducing processing time while maintaining sufficient data completeness for accurate predictions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
