Solution Overview

Problem

Current artificial intellect systems rely on pre-defined knowledge bases and rules, limiting their adaptability and predictability, and self-education methods only fill statistical data without altering existing rules, making them inefficient in dynamic environments.

Innovation Solution

A system that processes sensor information from various streams, including audio, video, and temperature data, to generate commands for executive organs, adapting to the environment by correlating information units and optimizing command sequences through a trial-and-error method, using meta-control channels and data compression to manage large volumes of data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If pre-defined knowledge bases and rules are used, then system predictability is improved, but system adaptability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem predictabilityVSAvoidsystem adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic rule generation where the system transitions from static pre-defined rules to dynamically generated rules based on environmental feedback. The cognitive system continuously adapts its rule set through trial-and-error learning, allowing rules to be created, modified, or deleted based on their effectiveness in achieving target states, thus resolving the contradiction between predictability and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs self-education by automatically generating and refining its own knowledge base without external intervention. Through the trial-and-error method, the system evaluates its own performance and autonomously adjusts its rule set, enabling it to maintain predictability through structured learning while simultaneously improving adaptability to new environments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Quantity of substance

If self-education methods fill statistical data, then system knowledge is improved, but rule alteration capability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem knowledgeVSAvoidrule alteration capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the system evaluates the results of executing commands against target states and uses this feedback to generate new rules or modify existing ones. The trial-and-error process continuously refines the rule set based on performance feedback, allowing the system to expand its knowledge base while simultaneously developing rule alteration capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary cognitive layer that processes statistical data and translates it into actionable rules. This intermediary system analyzes patterns in the data and generates rules that bridge the gap between raw statistical knowledge and executable commands, enabling both knowledge accumulation and rule creation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If trial-and-error method is used for adaptation, then system adaptability is improved, but system complexity deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem adaptabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the complex adaptation process into distinct modular components: perception modules for input processing, cognitive modules for rule generation and evaluation, and execution modules for command implementation. This segmentation allows the trial-and-error method to be applied in a structured manner, improving adaptability while managing complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system manages complexity by adjusting parameters such as the number of trial iterations, confidence thresholds for rule adoption, and priority levels for different rules. By controlling these parameters, the system can tune the balance between adaptability and complexity, preventing runaway complexity while maintaining effective learning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Loss of information

If large volumes of sensor data are processed, then system perception capability is improved, but data management efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperception capabilityVSAvoiddata management efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the essential features and relevant information from large volumes of sensor data rather than processing all raw data. The cognitive system identifies and extracts key characteristics needed for rule generation and decision-making, discarding redundant information, thus improving perception capability while maintaining data management efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary processing and filtering of sensor data before main analysis, pre-organizing information into structured formats that facilitate efficient rule generation. By preparing data in advance through feature extraction and relevance filtering, the system reduces the computational burden of subsequent processing while maintaining comprehensive perception.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

An adaptive cognitive method has been revealed where each distinguishable information unit, entering a given input channel, receives a unique label /identifier/ which serves as a center for the dynamic building of a structure for the presentation of knowledge on the respective information unit. A basic marker for the analysis of the correlation between the separate information units is the time quantum which is recorded—for each change—in the data base. The time quantum is the number of the shortest periods of time for the system, which have so far passed.
