Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If extensive driving data is collected to improve driving event recognition accuracy, then the recognition rate improves, but the cost and time for data collection increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving event recognition accuracyVSAvoiddata collection time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-training multiple specialized models (object detection model, trajectory prediction model, event determination model) offline before actual driving event recognition. This allows the system to have ready-to-use recognition capabilities without needing to collect and process extensive data in real-time, thus improving recognition accuracy while reducing data collection time and costs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates simplified copies or representations of complex driving scenarios through trained models. Instead of collecting and storing vast amounts of raw driving data, the system uses trained models that capture the essential patterns and relationships, enabling accurate event recognition with minimal data collection requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Measurement precision

If multiple trained models are used to analyze video sequences and determine driving events, then the recognition rate and accuracy improve, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving event recognition accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex driving event recognition task into multiple specialized sub-tasks, each handled by a dedicated model: object detection model for identifying objects, trajectory prediction model for predicting movement paths, and event determination model for final event classification. This segmentation improves accuracy for each specific task while making the overall system more manageable and interpretable despite the multiple components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses a multi-functional architecture where trained models process various types of input data (video sequences, object locations, trajectory information) and can determine multiple types of driving events (pedestrian crossing, vehicle collision, object falling). This universal approach allows a single system to handle diverse recognition tasks, improving overall accuracy without proportionally increasing complexity.

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

3Speed

If real-time analysis of video sequences is performed to detect driving events, then the timeliness of event detection improves, but the computational resources and processing time required increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary processing by pre-training models offline and preparing prediction frameworks before real-time operation. During actual driving, the pre-trained models can quickly process video sequences and determine events without requiring extensive real-time computation, thus achieving fast event detection while reducing real-time energy consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
