Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional single-modality data processing is used, then data management is simple, but data completeness and accuracy deteriorate when data is missing or erroneous
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple data modalities (audio, video, text) into a unified processing framework. Cross-modal machine learning models integrate these different modalities to互相 supplement each other, allowing the system to reconstruct missing or erroneous data by leveraging relationships across modalities, thereby improving data completeness without requiring separate processing systems for each modality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces cross-modal machine learning models as intermediary components that mediate between different data modalities. These models learn and exploit the relationships between modalities (e.g., between audio and video, or between text and video), enabling the system to infer missing information from available modalities while maintaining manageable processing complexity through standardized intermediary processing steps.
2Loss of information
If all multimodal data is stored and transmitted, then data completeness is maintained, but storage requirements and transmission bandwidth increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and stores only the essential calibration points and relationship information from complete multimodal datasets. Instead of storing all raw data, the system identifies key reference points that capture the essential cross-modal relationships, allowing for efficient storage and reconstruction of complete data when needed, thereby reducing data volume while maintaining data integrity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary analysis to identify calibration points and establish cross-modal relationships before actual data storage or transmission. By pre-processing the data to extract essential relationships and calibration information, the system reduces the amount of data that needs to be stored or transmitted while ensuring that complete information can be reconstructed when required, thus preventing information loss with reduced data volume.
3Productivity
If cross-modal analysis is performed to identify relationships between modalities, then data compression efficiency improves, but computational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the cross-modal analysis process into distinct stages: calibration point identification, relationship learning, and compression application. This segmentation allows the system to perform complex cross-modal analysis only when needed for calibration and relationship establishment, then apply these pre-computed relationships for efficient compression, thereby improving compression efficiency while managing computational complexity through divided processing steps.

AI summary
Aspects relate to analyzing multimodal datasets using one or more cross-modal machine learning models. The machine learning models are operable to generate analysis data related to the different data modalities. The analysis data can be used to identify related portions of data in the different modalities. Once these relationships between the different modalities of a data are identified, the relationships can be leveraged to perform various different processes. For example, a first portion of data having a first modality can be used to reconstruct missing or erroneous data from a second modality. The relationship between content stored in the different modalities can further be leveraged to perform compression on multimodal data sets.
