Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If machine learning models are applied to compressed videos, then processing speed and resource efficiency are improved, but prediction accuracy deteriorates due to compression artifacts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing speedVSAvoidprediction accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies deblocking filtering as a preliminary action before machine learning processing. The filter removes compression artifacts from the video data in advance, so that when the ML model processes the filtered data, it achieves both high processing speed (by working on compressed data) and high prediction accuracy (by eliminating artifact interference)

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Quantity of substance

If video compression is applied to reduce data size, then transmission and storage efficiency are improved, but image quality deteriorates due to introduced artifacts

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sizeVSAvoidimage quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and removes the harmful compression artifacts from the compressed video data through deblocking filtering. This allows the system to maintain the benefits of compressed data (small size for efficient transmission and storage) while eliminating the quality-degrading artifacts, thus preserving image quality without requiring uncompressed data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

Methods and systems are disclosed for applying machine learning models to compressed videos. The system receives a video, depicting an object, that has previously been compressed using one or more video compression processes. The system analyzes, using one or more machine learning models, the video that has previously been compressed to generate a prediction corresponding to the object depicted in the video, with one or more artifacts resulting from application of the one or more machine learning models to the video that has been previously compressed being absent from the prediction. The system generates a visual output based on the prediction in which the one or more artifacts are absent.
