Apply TRIZ cross-domain analogical reasoning to find solutions from adjacent fields. Use when conventional approaches stall.
Apply Altshuller's Theory of Inventive Problem Solving to find solutions from adjacent fields.
| Depth | Fields | Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| light | 1 | Contradiction only |
| medium | 2 | Contradiction + field mapping |
| deep | 3 | Full matrix + principles |
| maximum | 5 | Distant fields + full TRIZ |
