Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If existing semantic-based approaches (e.g., RDF) are used, then semantic structure and meaning can be represented, but significant manual effort is required and the system does not adapt to usage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to usageVSAvoidmanual effort required
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables semantic-based approaches to automatically adapt to usage through self-learning mechanisms. The neural network automatically generates communications and adapts to user interactions without requiring significant manual programming or configuration, allowing the system to serve itself in terms of adaptation and learning from usage patterns

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback loops where usage information is automatically fed back into the neural network to refine and update semantic representations. This continuous feedback mechanism enables the system to adapt to changing usage patterns and improve its semantic understanding automatically over time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If existing semantic-based systems are used, then structured communication can be achieved, but they lack self-awareness, imagination, introspection, and creative communication capabilities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecreative communication capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical or rule-based semantic systems with a neural network-based system. This substitution enables the system to achieve creative communication, self-awareness, and imagination by using neural computations rather than explicit programming, allowing for metaphorical constructs and witty responses that emerge from the network's learned patterns

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system embeds multiple levels of processing within the neural network architecture, where semantic representations are nested within larger patterns of neural activity. This nested structure allows the system to handle complex creative tasks by organizing computations hierarchically, with lower levels handling basic semantic processing and higher levels enabling creativity and self-awareness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Productivity

If manual programming of semantic rules is used, then communication can be structured and controlled, but the system cannot automatically adapt or learn from usage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautomatic adaptation speedVSAvoidsystem configuration effort
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary learning and adaptation during training phases, where the neural network pre-processes semantic relationships and usage patterns before actual operation. This preliminary action enables the system to automatically adapt to new usage scenarios without requiring manual reconfiguration, as the learning infrastructure is already in place and can process new information autonomously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

An iterative attention-based neural network training and processing method and system iteratively applies a focus of attention of a trained neural network on syntactical elements and generates probabilities associated with representations of the syntactical elements, which in turn inform a subsequent focus of attention of the neural network, resulting in updated probabilities. The updated probabilities are then applied to generate syntactical elements for delivery to a user. The user may respond to the delivered syntactical elements, providing additional training information to the trained neural network.
