Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If existing prediction models are used for advertising campaigns, then historical data can be utilized for forecasting, but accurate long-term forecasting for new and cold advertising opportunity data is not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary dimensionality reduction on metadata to create compressed representations before prediction. By pre-processing metadata into lower-dimensional embeddings, the system prepares the data structure in advance to enable accurate predictions for new campaigns without requiring historical performance data, thus resolving the contradiction between forecasting accuracy and applicability to cold data.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter representation by transforming high-dimensional metadata into lower-dimensional embeddings through dimensionality reduction. This parameter transformation allows the prediction model to work effectively with new and cold advertising opportunities by capturing essential characteristics in a compressed form, achieving both accuracy and adaptability.
2Quantity of substance
If temporal data based methods are used, then some historical advertising opportunity data can be processed, but at least a few days of historical data are required which limits effectiveness for new campaigns
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts essential characteristics from metadata through dimensionality reduction, separating the key predictive features from the full metadata set. This extraction allows the system to generate accurate predictions using only metadata without requiring historical advertising opportunity data, eliminating the minimum data duration requirement and enabling immediate effectiveness for new campaigns.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces metadata embeddings as an intermediary between the raw metadata and the prediction model. These embeddings serve as a mediator that captures the essential information needed for prediction without requiring historical data, thus bridging the gap between data availability and prediction effectiveness for new campaigns.
3Adaptability or versatility
If metadata and dimensionality reduction are used, then predictions can be made without historical data, but a machine learning model for embedding generation is required
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies dimensionality reduction to transform metadata from high-dimensional space to lower-dimensional embedding space. This dimensional transformation enables the system to make predictions for cold data by capturing essential patterns in a compressed representation, achieving high adaptability while managing model complexity through efficient dimensionality reduction techniques.
