Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional database integration methods are used to perform cross-row and cross-column similarity determinations, then the integration operations can be completed, but the computational efficiency is low and the processing time is excessive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical database integration methods with an attention-based encoder-decoder machine learning model. The model uses neural network components (encoder sub-model, vertical self-attention sub-models, and decoder sub-models) to automatically learn and determine cross-row and cross-column similarities, substituting manual or algorithmic similarity computation with intelligent machine learning-based determination, thereby significantly improving computational efficiency and reducing processing time.
2Reliability
If detailed similarity determination operations are performed for database integration, then the reliability of integration is improved, but the device complexity and computational resources required increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the database integration task into distinct functional components: an encoder sub-model that processes input data, multiple vertical self-attention sub-models that handle different aspects of similarity determination, and decoder sub-models that generate output representations. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific aspects of the integration task, improving overall reliability while making the complex system more manageable and interpretable.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a multi-dimensional attention mechanism that operates across different dimensions of the data (cross-row and cross-column dimensions). By adding this dimensional perspective, the model can capture complex relationships between database elements more effectively, enhancing integration reliability without proportionally increasing system complexity.
