Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods for building and maintaining machine learning models that process dynamic data are inadequate due to difficulties in obtaining high-quality training data, which are time-consuming and expensive, and require frequent model replacements as data quality and distribution change over time.

Innovation Solution

An adaptive oracle-trained learning framework that leverages an oracle (such as a crowd) for automatic generation of high-quality training data, monitors model performance, and uses active learning to incrementally adapt the model to changing data conditions, reducing the need for frequent model replacements.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional methods are used to obtain high-quality training data, then data quality is improved, but time consumption and cost increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata qualityVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system employs active learning where the model automatically selects and queries data from an oracle source without requiring manual curation. The active learning algorithm autonomously determines which data points need labeling and prioritizes them based on their informational value, enabling the system to self-manage the data collection process and reduce time investment while maintaining high data quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The framework implements a feedback loop where the trained model's performance is continuously monitored and used to guide future data collection. The system queries an oracle for labeled data based on the model's current state and uses this feedback to iteratively improve the model, creating a self-adjusting system that optimizes data quality over time without requiring manual intervention

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If traditional methods are used to obtain high-quality training data, then data quality is improved, but cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata qualityVSAvoidcost
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The active learning system automatically manages the expensive oracle data collection process by selecting only the most valuable data points that will maximally improve the model. This self-service approach eliminates the need for manual data curation and ensures that resources are spent only on data that provides the highest return on investment for model improvement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of collecting all possible training data, the active learning algorithm selectively queries only the necessary subset of data points from the oracle that will provide maximum informational value. This partial action approach reduces the total cost of data acquisition while maintaining sufficient data quality for effective model training

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Adaptability or versatility

If models are frequently replaced to adapt to changing data, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to changing dataVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements dynamic adaptability by continuously updating the training data set and model parameters in response to changing data distributions. Rather than replacing entire models, the framework dynamically adjusts the training data composition and retrain models incrementally, allowing the system to adapt to changing conditions while maintaining model continuity and reducing overall system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The active learning system performs preliminary data selection and preparation before model training, proactively identifying and querying the most valuable data points from the oracle in advance. This preliminary action ensures that high-quality training data is ready when needed, enabling faster model adaptation without requiring complex retraining procedures or complete model replacements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Manufacturing precision

If manual expert involvement is used for model maintenance, then manufacturing precision is improved, but device complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel maintenance precisionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The framework implements self-service model maintenance through automated active learning algorithms that continuously monitor model performance and automatically query the oracle for corrective data. The system self-adjusts training data composition and retrain models without requiring expert intervention, maintaining high precision in model maintenance while eliminating the complexity associated with manual expert involvement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system establishes automated feedback mechanisms that continuously monitor model performance metrics and trigger data queries to the oracle when degradation is detected. This automated feedback loop maintains manufacturing precision by continuously correcting model errors without requiring human experts to analyze performance and manually adjust training data, thereby reducing system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

In general, embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for an adaptive oracle-trained learning framework for automatically building and maintaining models that are developed using machine learning algorithms. In embodiments, the framework leverages at least one oracle (e.g., a crowd) for automatic generation of high-quality training data to use in deriving a model. Once a model is trained, the framework monitors the performance of the model and, in embodiments, leverages active learning and the oracle to generate feedback about the changing data for modifying training data sets while maintaining data quality to enable incremental adaptation of the model.
