Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If machine learning models are continuously trained to handle data distribution shifts, then model performance and adaptability improve, but computational resources and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by continuously monitoring model performance metrics and data distribution characteristics in advance, before actual retraining is needed. This allows the system to identify when retraining is necessary and when the current model suffices, avoiding unnecessary computational resources while maintaining adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms that continuously evaluate model performance against data distribution shifts. By using performance metrics and distribution statistics as feedback, the system can dynamically decide whether retraining is needed, optimizing the balance between model adaptability and computational resource consumption.
2Use of energy by moving object
If manual monitoring of model performance is used to determine retraining needs, then computational resources are saved, but time consumption and operational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically monitoring its own performance metrics and data distribution characteristics without requiring manual intervention. The automated evaluation system continuously assesses model performance and triggers retraining decisions autonomously, eliminating time-consuming manual monitoring while optimizing computational resource usage.
Solution Approach 2:
The system replaces manual mechanical monitoring processes with automated electronic evaluation mechanisms. By substituting human-based performance assessment with automated algorithms that continuously evaluate model metrics and data distributions, the system eliminates time consumption associated with manual checks while maintaining efficient computational resource management.
3Reliability
If all machine learning models in a workflow are retrained simultaneously, then overall system accuracy improves, but device complexity and operational difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies segmentation by evaluating and retraining individual machine learning models independently based on their specific performance metrics and data distribution characteristics. Rather than treating all models as a monolithic unit, the system segments the retraining process to focus only on models that actually need updates, reducing operational complexity while maintaining overall workflow accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements local quality by applying different retraining strategies to different models based on their individual performance characteristics and data distribution shifts. Each model is evaluated and managed according to its specific requirements, allowing selective retraining that improves accuracy without uniformly increasing complexity across the entire workflow.
