Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems for incorporating new code into existing applications are inefficient as they do not infer the success of incorporation until after resource consumption, leading to failed attempts and lack the ability to identify actionable changes to enhance incorporation likelihood.

Innovation Solution

A classification system using a machine learning model, specifically histogram-based gradient boosting classifiers, processes code data to generate incorporation metrics, allowing for pre-emptive intervention and actionable changes such as dividing new code into smaller sets to improve incorporation success.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional systems attempt to incorporate new code into existing applications, then new functionality can be added, but resource consumption occurs before failure detection, leading to inefficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecode incorporation efficiencyVSAvoidresource consumption in failed attempts
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of new code using machine learning models before actual incorporation into the application. The classifier evaluates code metrics and predicts incorporation success probability in advance, allowing the system to identify potentially failed incorporations before consuming significant resources, thus preventing wasted computational effort on doomed attempts

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where historical code incorporation outcomes are fed back into the machine learning model to continuously improve prediction accuracy. By analyzing patterns from past successful and failed incorporations, the system refines its ability to predict future outcomes, enabling better pre-emptive decisions about which code incorporations to proceed with or reject

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If conventional systems review and analyze new code based on various criteria, then incorporation quality can be maintained, but the process lacks the ability to identify actionable changes to enhance success likelihood

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveincorporation success rateVSAvoidlack of actionable insights for improvement
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The machine learning model provides feedback not only on predicted success probability but also on specific code metrics and characteristics that influenced the prediction. This feedback loop identifies actionable insights such as code complexity thresholds, metric ranges, or specific code patterns that correlate with successful incorporations, enabling developers to make targeted improvements before submission

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary classification layer between code submission and incorporation decision. This intermediary analyzer evaluates code against learned patterns from historical data and provides bridging information that connects raw code metrics to incorporation outcomes, translating technical code characteristics into actionable guidance for improvement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

In implementations of systems for classifying incorporation metrics, a computing device implements a classification system to receive code data describing information associated with a set of new code defining new functionality for an application. The set of new code is to be incorporated into a set of existing code defining existing functionality of the application. The classification system processes the code data using a machine learning model trained on training data to generate classifications of incorporation metrics for sets of new code defining new functionalities to be incorporated into sets of existing code defining existing functionalities. A classification of an incorporation metric for the set of new code is output using the machine learning model based on processing the code data. The classification system generates an indication of the classification of the incorporation metric for the set of new code for display in a user interface.
