Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If lossy compression techniques are used to reduce data size, then storage efficiency and bandwidth utilization are improved, but data accuracy and information completeness deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sizeVSAvoiddata accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

A neural network upsampler is introduced as an intermediary component between the lossy compression decoder and the final data usage. This neural network processes the decompressed data and recovers lost information by learning the mapping between compressed and original data distributions, thereby mediating the information loss caused by compression

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameters of the decompressed data by applying neural network-based upsampling transformations. The neural network learns optimal parameter transformations to reconstruct high-frequency components and restore data characteristics that were lost during compression, effectively changing the data parameters back toward their original state

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If high-frequency financial data is compressed for efficient storage and transmission, then productivity and resource utilization are improved, but measurement precision and analysis accuracy deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The neural network upsampler performs preliminary restoration of data quality before the data is used for financial analysis. By pre-processing the decompressed data through the neural network, the system recovers measurement precision in advance, ensuring that subsequent analytical operations work with accurate data while maintaining the efficiency benefits of compression

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where the neural network upsampler continuously processes decompressed data and uses learned patterns to restore integrity. The neural network learns from training data the relationship between compressed and original states, providing feedback-based correction that maintains reliability while allowing lossy compression to reduce storage complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
