1Manufacturing precision
If manual trial and error is used to determine network structure, then appropriate structure can be found, but the process is time-consuming and laborious
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements automatic network structure determination through a training method that uses a determination unit to automatically select optimal network structures based on training data, eliminating the need for manual trial and error. The system self-adjusts the network structure during the training process, making the structure determination automated and efficient.

If gradient descent method is used for training, then network weights and biases can be obtained, but the method is prone to local minima and slow convergence
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the traditional gradient descent mechanical optimization method with a neural network training method that uses forward propagation and backpropagation algorithms. This substitution allows the network to learn optimal parameters through data-driven training rather than relying on gradient-based mechanical optimization, thereby avoiding local minima issues and improving convergence reliability.
