Solution Overview

Problem

The lack of standardized metrics across platforms for evaluating web content performance makes it challenging to compare and identify high-performing content, hindering effective generation and reproduction of engaging web content.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a scored content generator that calculates performance scores for web content items, pages, and websites based on empirical algorithms using metadata and metrics such as likes, shares, and views, and applies filtering techniques to identify top-scoring content for user reference.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If non-standardized metrics are used across different platforms, then each platform can maintain its own evaluation system, but comparing and identifying high-performing content becomes challenging

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveplatform evaluation flexibilityVSAvoidcontent performance comparability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms various platform-specific metrics (likes, shares, comments, views) into a unified standardized score through parameter transformation. The system normalizes different metric types and weights them according to platform characteristics, converting heterogeneous data into a comparable standardized performance indicator that resolves the contradiction between platform flexibility and comparability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive metrics are collected to accurately evaluate content performance, then scoring accuracy improves, but data processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent performance scoring accuracyVSAvoiddata processing system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the content evaluation process into distinct modular components: data collection module, metric normalization module, weighting module, and score calculation module. Each component handles a specific aspect of the evaluation, processing metrics independently before integration. This segmentation reduces overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive evaluation accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces intermediary normalization factors and weighting coefficients that mediate between raw platform metrics and final performance scores. These intermediaries standardize diverse metrics (likes, shares, comments) into a unified scale, simplifying the aggregation process while preserving the nuanced information from comprehensive data collection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If filtering is applied to exclude certain content items, then scoring efficiency improves, but potential high-performing content may be missed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent scoring efficiencyVSAvoidcontent selection accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a multi-stage filtering approach where initial broad filtering excludes obviously irrelevant content, followed by progressive refinement stages. This partial action strategy processes only a subset of content at each stage, improving efficiency while the cumulative effect of multiple filtering passes ensures high-performing content is retained through appropriate threshold adjustments at each level.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

A method includes retrieving, by executing a scored content generator, a web content collection. The web content collection includes first metadata associated with the web content collection as a whole, content items, and second metadata associated with the content items. The second metadata also includes metrics characterizing (i) the content items and (ii) at least a portion of the web content collection. Executing a scored content generator, and based on the metrics, a content item performance score is calculated for each of the retrieved content items. Each content item performance score characterizes a level of user interaction with the content items. Data encapsulating the content item performance scores is provided to a first computing system.
