METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND SYSTEMS FOR GENERATING SOLUTIONS
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium having instructions for generating group solutions stored thereon, the instructions when executed by at least one processor causes the processor to:
- receive a plurality of solution statements from a plurality of users;
determine that two or more solution statements of the plurality of solution statements are positively and significantly correlated with each other; and
generate a group solution that includes the two or more solution statements determined to be positively and significantly correlated with each other.

Abstract
One feature pertains to a computer-readable storage medium having instructions for generating group solutions stored thereon, the instructions when executed by at least one processor causes the processor to receive a plurality of solution statements from a plurality of users, determine that two or more solution statements of the plurality of solution statements are positively and significantly correlated with each other, and generate a group solution that includes the two or more solution statements determined to be positively and significantly correlated with each other. The two or more solution statements having the positive and significant correlation tending to be included concurrently in the plurality of solution statements received from the plurality of users.

16. A server comprising:
-
a communication interface configured to communicate with a plurality of client devices; a processing circuit communicatively coupled to the communication interface, the processing circuit configured to; receive a plurality of solution statements from the plurality of client devices, wherein the plurality of solution statements received includes at least one solution statement from each of the client devices and one or more sets of solution statements from one or more of the client devices, the sets of solution statements each including two or more solution statements; determine that at least two solution statements of the plurality of solution statements are positively and significantly correlated with each other in that the at least two solution statements are included in at least one set of solution statements received; and generate a group solution that includes the at least two solution statements determined to be positively and significantly correlated with each other. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method of generating group solutions to a project, the method comprising:
-
(a) receiving a plurality of solution statements from a plurality of users; (b) identifying a most common solution statement from the plurality of solution statements; (c) inserting the most common solution statement identified in (b) into a primary group solution; (d) identifying a next most common solution statement from the plurality of solution statements that has not yet been inserted into the primary group solution and is positively and significantly correlated with all other solution statements of the primary group solution; (e) inserting the next most common solution statement identified in (d) into the primary group solution; and (f) repeating (d) and (e) until no next most common solution statement is identified, thereby generating the primary group solution. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25)
