Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If multiple neural networks are used to analyze different types of remote sensing data, then analysis accuracy is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically selects which neural network to use based on the characteristics of the input remote sensing data. The metadata analysis module examines data properties (sensor type, geographic region, data format) and automatically chooses the most appropriate pre-trained neural network from the plurality of available networks, making the system adaptable rather than static
Solution Approach 2:
A metadata analysis module acts as an intermediary between the raw remote sensing data and the neural networks. This module generates metadata describing the data characteristics and uses this information to select the appropriate neural network, serving as a mediator that simplifies the interface between diverse data types and multiple specialized networks
2Productivity
If remote sensing data is processed without preprocessing and metadata generation, then processing speed is improved, but information extraction accuracy deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by generating metadata and analyzing data characteristics before the actual neural network processing occurs. The metadata generation step prepares information about the remote sensing data (sensor type, spatial resolution, spectral bands, geographic location) in advance, enabling informed selection of the appropriate neural network and improving subsequent analysis accuracy without significantly impacting overall processing time
