QiFlow Methodology & Algorithm — Full Transparency

QiFlow Methodology & Algorithm

This page is QiFlow's public E-E-A-T record. Every conclusion in every report can be traced to a public algorithm or published source. Below is the full methodology for our core capabilities: floorplan feng shui, BaZi, and Flying Stars.

1. Algorithm Foundations

Floorplan Quick Diagnosis: classical Xuan Kong Flying Stars (Shen Zhureng, 1993) + Ba Zhai school + Wu Xing theory, combined with modern geometry detection (room orientation, missing corners, protrusions).

BaZi Analysis: traditional Zi Ping method for chart generation, blended with modern schools (Di Tian Sui, San Ming Tong Hui, Qiong Tong Bao Jian) for interpretation.

AI Interpretation: based on GPT / Claude / DeepSeek. Input is structured chart data + classic literature abstracts; output is formatted via the Five-Dimension template (Personality / Career / Wealth / Relationships / Health).

Image Recognition: ONNX-based computer vision model detects orientation, room layout, and missing-corner ratio from uploaded floorplan images.

Flying Stars Chart: auto-generated, including mountain / facing / period star combinations, with overlay recommendations.

3. Limitations (Read First)

1.QiFlow does NOT replace professional feng shui masters. Complex on-site assessments (multi-floor villas, commercial spaces, ancestral halls) require traditional masters.
2.AI Interpretation Boundaries: model output is based on training-data literature and public interpretation patterns, NOT absolute destiny. Use for daily decisions only.
3.Scientific Standing: traditional destiny studies are NOT modern science. QiFlow offers a culture-and-tools combo, and does NOT guarantee scientific falsifiability of conclusions.
4.Image Recognition Error: low-resolution uploads may yield 5%-10% error in orientation or missing-corner detection. Consider attaching a hand-drawn floor plan.
5.Major Decisions: for marriage, investment, relocation, please also consult professional destiny masters, counselors, and legal/financial advisors.

4. Continuous Update Mechanism

QiFlow algorithms and literature database are updated quarterly. Update records are public in docs/冷启动/30-调研索引与已装技能清单.md. Any user feedback (team@qiflow.io) is processed within 7 business days.
