Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional wavefront analysis methods are used, then the system is simple, but the identification accuracy is low due to limited information from wavefront appearance
Solution Approach 1:
The wavefront data is segmented into multiple components: intensity information, phase information, and curvature information. Each component is processed separately by dedicated neural network branches, allowing comprehensive analysis while maintaining manageable complexity through modular architecture
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from analyzing only the 2D appearance of wavefronts to incorporating 3D phase information and curvature data. This dimensional expansion provides additional features for identification, improving accuracy from limited visual information
2Adaptability or versatility
If complete and high-quality samples are required for accurate identification, then identification accuracy is high, but the system cannot handle incomplete, damaged, or flawed samples
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs attention mechanisms that provide feedback loops, allowing the neural network to iteratively refine its analysis of wavefront features. This enables the model to compensate for missing or damaged information by re-weighting and re-analyzing available features
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameters being analyzed from simple intensity values to multiple derived parameters including phase, curvature, and their combinations. This parameter transformation allows the system to extract meaningful information even from incomplete or flawed wavefront data
3Measurement precision
If only intensity information from wavefronts is used, then the processing is simple, but insufficient information is available for accurate object identification
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple information sources (intensity, phase, curvature) into a unified neural network architecture. These different types of information are combined in the feature fusion layers, creating a comprehensive representation that improves identification accuracy
Solution Approach 2:
Phase information and curvature information serve as intermediaries that bridge the gap between raw wavefront data and object identification. These intermediate representations transform the raw data into more discriminative features for classification
