Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional CKD detection methods are used, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but the detection precision and early identification capability are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical/manual CKD detection methods with an artificial intelligence system using recurrent neural networks and machine learning algorithms. This substitution enables automated processing of biomarker data (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity) and demographic information to generate probability risk scores, significantly improving detection precision while managing complexity through software-based solutions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an AI-based prediction model as an intermediary between raw biomarker data and CKD diagnosis. This intermediary process automatically analyzes multiple parameters (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity, demographic information) and generates probability risk scores, enhancing detection capability without requiring complex manual interpretation procedures.
2Reliability
If AI-based prediction models are implemented, then early detection capability is improved, but the ease of operation decreases due to complex data processing requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a self-service system where the AI model automatically processes biomarker data and demographic information without requiring manual intervention. The recurrent neural network autonomously generates probability risk scores from input data (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity), and the system automatically provides customized recommendations, reducing operational complexity despite enhanced detection reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary processing of biomarker data and demographic information before final diagnosis. The AI model pre-processes multiple parameters (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity) and generates probability risk scores in advance, making the detection process more reliable while automating operations to maintain ease of use.
3Measurement precision
If multiple biomarkers and demographic information are processed, then the detection accuracy increases, but the loss of time for data processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a recurrent neural network that continuously processes biomarker data and demographic information in an automated flow. The system maintains continuous useful action by automatically analyzing multiple parameters (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity, demographic information) and generating probability risk scores without interruption, improving assessment accuracy while minimizing processing time through uninterrupted automated operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary organization and preparation of biomarker data and demographic information before AI analysis. By pre-processing and structuring the data (creatinine, BUN, urine specific gravity, demographic information) in advance, the system enables faster and more accurate susceptibility assessment, reducing the time loss associated with processing multiple parameters.
