Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for training artificial intelligence models using synthetic data face challenges such as lower learning accuracy, information loss due to stride size, and increased storage requirements, making them less effective and more resource-intensive compared to using real data.

Innovation Solution

An electronic device is equipped with a learning module that includes a first generator for creating input vectors, a second generator for producing synthetic data, and a first learning model for analyzing this synthetic data. The device learns parameters from both generators based on output data, minimizes loss values, and optionally replaces convolutional layers with swing convolution layers to prevent information loss.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If virtual data is used for training AI networks, then learning operation is enabled when real data is unavailable due to security or cost issues, but learning accuracy deteriorates compared to using real data

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a discriminator network as an intermediary component that evaluates the authenticity of synthetic data and provides feedback to the generator. This mediator mechanism allows the system to improve synthetic data quality iteratively, bridging the gap between virtual data availability and learning accuracy requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a feedback loop where the discriminator network assesses synthetic data quality and returns signals to the generator for refinement. This feedback mechanism enables continuous improvement of synthetic data, allowing the system to achieve acceptable learning accuracy despite using virtual data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
