Solution Overview

Problem

Developing contextually intelligent apparatus is challenging due to inadequate manual labeling of geographic data and the requirement for large datasets for training deep neural networks, which often are not available.

Innovation Solution

The system employs pretrained deep learning models, adapts them for target domains through transfer learning, and combines outputs to provide ensemble labels for image data, addressing the limitations of manual labeling and dataset size with a crowd-assisted approach.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual labeling of geographic data is used, then human expertise can be applied, but the labeling process becomes inadequate due to the sheer number of locations and limited accuracy

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelabeling accuracyVSAvoidlabeling throughput
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses pretrained deep learning models trained on large source domain datasets to generate labels for target domain locations. Instead of manually labeling each location, the system copies labeling patterns and features from the source domain models to automatically generate labels for target locations, achieving both high accuracy and high throughput

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs domain adaptation by adjusting model parameters when transitioning from source domain to target domain. The deep learning models are fine-tuned with target domain data, changing their parameters to better fit the specific characteristics of target locations while maintaining the benefits of pretraining on large datasets

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If deep neural networks are trained on very large datasets, then model accuracy improves, but suitable datasets of sufficient size are often not available for many applications

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel accuracyVSAvoiddataset size
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent pretrains deep learning models on large source domain datasets before deploying them to the target domain. This preliminary training action allows the models to learn general features and patterns from abundant source data, which can then be adapted to target domains with limited data availability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The deep learning models are designed to be universal across multiple domains. By training on diverse source domain data and implementing domain adaptation mechanisms, the models can function effectively in multiple target domains, reducing the need for separate large datasets for each application

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Measurement precision

If pretrained deep learning models are adapted for target domains through transfer learning, then labeling accuracy for target domains improves, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetarget domain labeling accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the labeling process into distinct phases: pretraining on source domain, domain adaptation for target domain, and ensemble combination. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently while maintaining overall system manageability and clarity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Reliability

If multiple pretrained deep learning models are used to provide ensemble outputs, then labeling reliability improves, but computational resources and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelabeling reliabilityVSAvoidcomputational energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses an ensemble of pretrained models but applies selective adaptation - not all models are fully adapted to the target domain. Some models retain their source domain training while others undergo partial adaptation, reducing computational overhead while maintaining reliability through diverse model predictions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

An apparatus for contextual execution comprises a processor, and a memory containing instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to receive, from a user terminal, a control input associated with an intent, obtain location data associated with a location of the user terminal, and determine a scored set of execution options associated with the control input. Further, the instructions, when executed by the processor cause the apparatus to obtain a contextual label associated with the location data, the label determined based on the application of one or more adapted pretrained deep learning models to the location data.
