Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If trial and error acquisitions are performed at different sampling frequencies and amounts of data to find optimal classification model parameters, then the classification model performance can be optimized, but the process becomes time-consuming and costly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by using simulated time-series signals to pre-assess the performance of test classification models with different acquisition parameters before actual acquisitions are performed. This allows the optimal sampling frequency and data amount to be determined in advance, avoiding time-consuming trial and error acquisitions.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates simulated time-series signals that copy the characteristics of real signals but can be generated rapidly without physical acquisition. These simulated signals are used to evaluate multiple classification model configurations, replacing the need for multiple actual signal acquisitions and significantly reducing the time and cost required for parameter optimization.
2Reliability
If multiple acquisitions are performed with different acquisition parameters to test classification model performance, then optimal parameters can be determined, but the cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses simulated time-series signals as copies of real signals to evaluate classification models. These simulated signals can be generated computationally without the energy cost of actual sensor acquisitions, processing, and storage, thereby determining optimal acquisition parameters at a fraction of the cost while maintaining the ability to assess model performance accurately.
Solution Approach 2:
By performing preliminary assessments using simulated signals and test classification models, the patent identifies the optimal acquisition parameters before committing resources to actual acquisitions. This preliminary action prevents wasteful spending on multiple costly acquisition campaigns with suboptimal parameters.
3Measurement precision
If larger amounts of data are acquired at higher sampling frequencies to improve classification model accuracy, then the model performance increases, but the energy consumption and memory occupation increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses simulated time-series signals to preliminarily determine the optimal sampling frequency and data amount required for achieving satisfactory classification accuracy. This allows the system to identify the minimum necessary acquisition parameters in advance, avoiding the energy waste associated with acquiring excessive data at unnecessarily high sampling rates.
