Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If behavior data is continuously updated to improve prediction accuracy, then prediction reliability is improved, but system complexity and data management burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameter of data freshness by comparing detection timestamps with current time to determine whether behavior data should be updated. This parameter-based approach allows automatic determination of update necessity without complex manual intervention, resolving the contradiction between maintaining accurate predictions and managing data update complexity.
2Reliability
If behavior prediction model is frequently updated to maintain accuracy, then prediction reliability is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-calculating and storing behavior data with detection results and timestamps before predictions are needed. When a prediction is required, the system can quickly retrieve and compare pre-processed data without performing complex calculations in real-time, thus maintaining accuracy while reducing processing time.
Solution Approach 2:
The behavior prediction system performs self-service by automatically determining whether updates are necessary through timestamp comparison and deviation detection, without requiring external intervention or complex decision-making processes. This automation reduces the time and computational resources needed for model updates.
3Measurement precision
If strict deviation thresholds are used to detect prediction errors, then measurement precision is improved, but false positive rate increases leading to unnecessary updates
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses parameter changes in the form of deviation thresholds that can be adjusted based on the specific prediction context. By allowing the threshold parameter to vary, the system can achieve precise deviation detection while minimizing false positives that would trigger unnecessary updates, thus resolving the contradiction between detection precision and update reliability.
