Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a joint embedding space method is used to map data from different domains, then the relationship between data can be represented, but the training process requires considerable time and computational resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to represent relationship between different domain dataVSAvoidtraining time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs dataset correction before neural network training by generating a prediction matrix, identifying mislabeled data, and correcting errors in advance. This preliminary correction action reduces training time by preventing the neural network from learning incorrect patterns, directly addressing the time loss issue while maintaining the joint embedding space's ability to represent cross-domain relationships.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs self-correction of the dataset by automatically identifying mislabeled data through the prediction matrix and correcting errors without external intervention. This self-service mechanism improves training efficiency by eliminating the need for manual dataset verification while preserving the adaptability of the joint embedding space for cross-domain data mapping.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If dataset correction is performed separately from neural network training, then data errors can be identified, but the overall training efficacy is reduced due to sequential processing

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges dataset correction and neural network training into a unified simultaneous processing framework. The correction module and training module operate concurrently, sharing computational resources and data flows. This merging eliminates the sequential bottleneck, improving training efficacy while maintaining high accuracy in identifying and correcting data errors through the prediction matrix mechanism.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system maintains continuous useful action by having the correction module continuously identify and correct errors while the training module continuously learns from the corrected data in real-time. This continuous parallel processing eliminates idle time between correction and training phases, maximizing productivity while preserving measurement precision through ongoing error detection and correction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Ease of manufacture

If mislabeled data is not corrected, then the dataset can be used as-is, but classification accuracy deteriorates due to training on erroneous data

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically detects and corrects mislabeled data through the prediction matrix generated during simultaneous training, enabling self-correction without manual intervention. This maintains dataset usability by preserving the automated processing workflow while significantly improving classification accuracy by eliminating errors that would otherwise deteriorate model performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The prediction matrix provides feedback on data labeling quality by comparing predicted labels with actual labels, identifying mislabeled instances. This feedback mechanism enables continuous improvement of dataset quality during training, maintaining ease of manufacture through automated processing while enhancing reliability by correcting errors that would reduce classification accuracy.
