Solution Overview

Problem

Current tools for selecting machine learning models lack the ability to customize the presentation of options based on user familiarity, leading to suboptimal selections due to unclear metrics and lack of understanding of the models' logic behind predictions.

Innovation Solution

A system that determines a user's familiarity level with machine learning models, generates a graphical overview tailored to that level, and allows for interactive clarification and refinement of the presentation based on user input, creating a familiarity profile to provide a customized and enhanced evaluation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If automated model selection tools are used to simplify the process, then ease of operation is improved, but measurement precision deteriorates because users lack understanding of the metrics and model logic

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of model selectionVSAvoidaccuracy of model evaluation
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary evaluation system that sits between the automated model selection tool and the user. This intermediary provides detailed explanations of model metrics, performance measurements, and selection criteria, translating complex automated outputs into understandable information that helps users make accurate evaluations while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms that provide users with explanatory information about model performance metrics and selection rationale. This feedback loop allows users to understand the basis of automated recommendations, improving their comprehension and evaluation accuracy without adding operational complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If detailed information about all model metrics is provided, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases making the tool harder to use

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of model evaluationVSAvoidcomplexity of evaluation tool
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic information presentation system that adapts the level of detail and complexity based on user interactions, preferences, and demonstrated knowledge. The evaluation tool dynamically adjusts which metrics are displayed and how much explanatory information is provided, maintaining measurement precision while optimizing for usability at different stages of user engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple candidate models are evaluated and presented, then adaptability is improved giving users more options, but loss of information increases due to overwhelming complexity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevariety of model optionsVSAvoidclarity of model comparison
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the evaluation of multiple candidate models into organized groups or categories based on model type, performance characteristics, or applicability to specific use cases. This segmentation presents diverse model options in a structured manner that maintains adaptability while preventing information overload by breaking down the complexity into manageable segments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
