Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If semi-supervised learning is used with unlabeled data, then labeling cost is reduced, but learning performance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary dimensionality reduction and clustering analysis on the data distribution before actual learning. This preliminary action generates a data distribution diagram that predicts learning performance in advance, allowing users to understand the impact of using unlabeled data before committing to the learning process
Solution Approach 2:
A data distribution diagram serves as an intermediary between the raw data and the learning process. This diagram visualizes cluster overlaps and data distribution characteristics, mediating the decision-making process about whether to use labeled or unlabeled data, thus resolving the contradiction between labeling cost and performance
2Reliability
If all data is labeled for supervised learning, then learning performance is improved, but labeling burden increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary dimensionality reduction and clustering analysis on the data distribution before actual learning. This preliminary action generates a data distribution diagram that predicts learning performance in advance, allowing users to understand the impact of using unlabeled data before committing to the learning process
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of requiring complete labeling of all data, the system allows partial labeling and uses the data distribution diagram to predict whether this partial action will achieve satisfactory performance. This eliminates the need for excessive labeling while maintaining acceptable performance levels
3Measurement precision
If dimensionality reduction is performed to generate data distribution diagram, then learning performance prediction capability is improved, but processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the essential features needed for performance prediction through dimensionality reduction. By transforming high-dimensional data into a lower-dimensional space that preserves cluster structure and distribution characteristics, it extracts the minimum necessary information for accurate prediction without unnecessary complexity
