Solution Overview

Problem

Machine learning models, particularly large language models (LLMs), are prone to inaccuracies and hallucinations when lacking sufficient context, leading to unreliable element extraction and mapping, which can cause errors in broader systems relying on these models.

Innovation Solution

A system using multiple machine learning models, including an entropy detection engine and an external inference engine, to determine and mitigate high entropy elements by flagging uncertain elements and performing probabilistic mapping to input parameters, ensuring accurate extraction and mapping.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a single machine learning model is used for element extraction and mapping, then the system is simple and easy to operate, but the reliability and accuracy deteriorate due to hallucinations and insufficient context

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereliability of element extraction and mappingVSAvoidcomplexity of machine learning system
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the machine learning system into multiple specialized models: an entropy detection engine that identifies uncertain elements, and external inference engines that handle high-entropy elements. This segmentation allows each model to specialize in specific tasks, improving overall reliability while managing complexity through functional decomposition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The entropy detection engine acts as an intermediary between the query processing and final mapping. It detects high-entropy elements and routes them to appropriate external inference engines, preventing direct processing by models that would otherwise hallucinate or produce inaccurate results.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If multiple machine learning models are used to detect and process high entropy elements, then the accuracy and reliability improve, but the computational resources and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of element extraction and mappingVSAvoidcomputational resources required
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies multiple models selectively rather than universally. The entropy detection engine identifies only high-entropy elements that require additional processing, allowing partial application of external inference engines only where needed, thus reducing overall computational overhead while maintaining precision for critical elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

Different parts of the query are processed with different levels of computational resources. High-entropy elements receive intensive processing from external inference engines, while low-entropy elements are handled by simpler models, optimizing resource allocation based on local needs of each query component.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Manufacturing precision

If high entropy elements are processed with multiple models and probabilistic mapping, then the accuracy improves, but the processing time and complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of element mapping to input parametersVSAvoidprocessing time for element extraction and mapping
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The entropy detection engine performs preliminary analysis to identify high-entropy elements before they are processed by external inference engines. This preliminary action allows the system to prepare and route only the necessary elements for intensive processing, reducing overall processing time by avoiding unnecessary computation on low-entropy elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies complex probabilistic mapping only to high-entropy elements identified by the entropy detection engine, rather than processing all elements uniformly. This partial application of intensive processing methods reduces total processing time while maintaining high precision for the most uncertain and critical mappings.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
