Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems face challenges in accurately and efficiently selecting relevant media from large data sets, often resulting in inaccurate or time-consuming processes due to the lack of effective methods for analyzing and ranking media content based on facial recognition attributes.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a ranking module, storage element, transcription module, word recognition module, and facial analysis module that transcribes recordings, counts recognized words, performs facial analysis, and weights results based on facial recognition attributes to select and rank recordings, incorporating filters and additional analyses for improved relevance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional media selection systems are used, then the selection process is simple, but the accuracy of selected content is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of selected contentVSAvoidcomplexity of selection system
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments media analysis into multiple independent modules: audio transcription module, text analysis module, facial recognition module, and weighting module. Each module processes specific aspects separately and contributes to the overall ranking, enabling high accuracy without overwhelming system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces multiple parameters for media evaluation including word count, facial expression scores, emotional states, and their corresponding weights. By changing from single-parameter to multi-parameter evaluation, the system achieves higher selection accuracy while maintaining manageable complexity through modular implementation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive media analysis is performed, then selection accuracy improves, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveselection accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary transcription of audio to text and pre-processing of video frames before the actual analysis. By preparing data in advance, the system reduces real-time processing requirements while maintaining comprehensive analysis accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements selective analysis by applying different levels of processing to different media segments. Not all frames or transcribed text receive full analysis - the system processes only relevant portions based on initial filtering, reducing overall processing time while maintaining accuracy for key content

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Measurement precision

If facial recognition attributes are analyzed, then content relevance improves, but power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent relevanceVSAvoidpower consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs facial recognition analysis periodically rather than continuously, analyzing facial attributes at specific intervals or triggered by certain conditions. This approach maintains content relevance through regular updates while significantly reducing power consumption compared to continuous analysis

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies partial facial analysis by focusing only on key facial attributes relevant to the specific context rather than analyzing all possible facial features. This selective approach maintains content relevance while reducing the computational power required

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

Techniques are disclosed relating to selecting and/or ranking from among multiple recordings based on determining facial attributes associated with detected words. For example, each recording may be transcribed and analyzed to determine whether the recordings include words in one or more sets of words. Facial analysis may be performed during intervals in the recordings corresponding to recognized words. Counts of the recognized words may be weighted based on detected facial attributes. In various embodiments, disclosed techniques may facilitate accurate selection of relevant media from large data sets.
