Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If an AI/ML model is trained in a specific scenario and applied to other scenarios, then the model can be reused without retraining, but positioning accuracy drops significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel reusabilityVSAvoidpositioning accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic model updating mechanisms that allow the model to adapt to different scenarios. The system determines whether to update model parameters, update the entire model, or retrain based on scenario changes, making the model flexible and adaptable while maintaining positioning accuracy across diverse environments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes model parameters adaptively based on scenario requirements. By adjusting model parameters according to the specific scenario being applied to, the system maintains positioning accuracy while enabling model reuse across different contexts without complete retraining

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If model parameters and structure are updated to maintain accuracy in new scenarios, then positioning accuracy is preserved, but computational complexity and training requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepositioning accuracyVSAvoidmodel updating complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial updating by selectively updating only certain model parameters or components rather than the entire model. This partial action approach maintains positioning accuracy while reducing computational complexity and training requirements compared to complete model updates

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the model updating process into different levels: parameter updates, model structure updates, and complete retraining. This segmentation allows the system to choose the appropriate level of updating based on scenario requirements, reducing unnecessary computational complexity while maintaining accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Measurement precision

If a new model is trained based on sample sets in multiple scenarios, then positioning accuracy across different scenarios improves, but training time and data requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemulti-scenario positioning accuracyVSAvoidmodel training time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal model that can function across multiple scenarios by training on diverse sample sets. This multi-functional model reduces the need for scenario-specific models and their associated training times, as one model serves multiple purposes across different environments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary training on diverse sample sets covering multiple scenarios to create a robust base model. This preliminary action prepares the model to handle various scenarios without requiring extensive retraining later, reducing overall training time while maintaining multi-scenario positioning accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
