Abstract
Nowadays, firms are constantly looking for methodological approaches that help them to decrease the time needed for the innovation process. Among these approaches, it is worth mentioning the TRIZ-based frameworks such as the Inventive Design Methodology (IDM), where the Problem Graph method is used to formulate a problem. However, the application of IDM is time-consuming due to the construction of a complete map to clarify a problem situation. Therefore, the Inverse Problem Graph (IPG) method has been introduced within the IDM framework to enhance its agility. Nevertheless, the manual gathering of essential information, including parameters and concepts, requires effort and time. This paper integrates the neural network doc2vec and machine learning algorithms as Artificial Intelligence methods into a graphical method inspired by the IPG process. This integration can facilitate and accelerate the development of inventive solutions by extracting parameters and concepts in the inventive design process. The method has been applied to develop a new lattice structure solution in the material field.
