Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If original video data is stored in the storage device, then data quality is maintained, but storage space is excessively consumed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestorage spaceVSAvoiddata quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a compressed copy of the original video data through neural network inference. The computing device generates inference video data from base data and event tables, which are derived from the original video. This inferred version retains essential information while occupying significantly less storage space, effectively replacing the need to store the complete original video data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts only the critical information from the original video data into base data and event tables. By separating and extracting only the necessary features and temporal information, the system reduces storage requirements while maintaining data quality for the purposes of computational storage operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Productivity

If multimedia data is stored without efficient management, then data accessibility is maintained, but system performance deteriorates due to storage space constraints

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem performanceVSAvoidstorage space utilization
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary processing of video data by generating base data and event tables before storage. The neural network model pre-processes the original video data into a compressed representation that can be efficiently stored and accessed later, preparing the data in advance to avoid performance issues during actual storage operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the data representation parameters by transforming original video data into a different format consisting of base data and event tables. This parameter transformation reduces the data size and improves storage efficiency while maintaining accessibility and system performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
