Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If machine learning is used to determine ground surface variations, then the presence or absence of variations can be determined, but the factors contributing to height variations cannot be identified
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the geospatial information into multiple types (e.g., terrain data, land use data, vegetation data, soil data) and analyzes each type separately to identify specific factors contributing to height variations. This segmentation allows the system to not only detect variations but also attribute them to specific causal factors.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from binary classification (presence/absence of variation) to multi-dimensional analysis by incorporating multiple types of geospatial information dimensions. This enables the system to identify both the presence of variations and the underlying factors by analyzing data across multiple informational dimensions simultaneously.
2Loss of information
If multiple types of geospatial information are extracted and analyzed, then factors contributing to height variations can be identified, but the complexity of the analysis system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a unified machine learning framework that can process multiple types of geospatial information (terrain, land use, vegetation, soil) through a single determination model. This multi-functional approach allows the system to identify various contributing factors without requiring separate specialized systems for each data type, thereby managing complexity while achieving comprehensive factor analysis.
3Loss of information
If geospatial information is extracted from multiple data sources, then comprehensive factor analysis is enabled, but the processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary extraction and preprocessing of geospatial information from multiple data sources before feeding it into the machine learning model. By preparing and organizing the data in advance, the system reduces computational burden during the actual analysis phase, thereby decreasing overall processing time while maintaining comprehensive factor analysis capability.
