Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If semantic segmentation database is constructed to implement lane detection software, then lane detection capability is provided, but construction time and cost increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-processing camera images to generate semantic segmentation data before the actual lane detection operation. The system extracts lane pixels and generates semantic segmentation maps in advance, which are then stored as training data. This allows the deep learning model to be trained efficiently without requiring time-consuming manual annotation of every lane detection scenario.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating synthetic semantic segmentation data from camera images through automated pixel extraction and classification. Instead of manually annotating images or requiring complex database construction, the system automatically copies and transforms raw camera data into structured semantic segmentation labels, significantly reducing construction time and cost while maintaining data quality for model training.
2Reliability
If semantic segmentation database is constructed to implement lane detection software, then lane detection capability is provided, but construction cost increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling the system to automatically generate its own training data from camera images without external intervention. The lane detection system extracts lane pixels, classifies them into semantic categories, and generates segmentation labels autonomously. This self-service approach eliminates the need for expensive manual annotation services or complex database construction processes, significantly reducing overall system development cost.

3Productivity
If lane detection is performed based on semantic segmentation data, then lane detection software can operate, but detection errors occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by implementing a verification mechanism that checks detected lane pixels against the generated semantic segmentation data. The system compares the detected lane information with the semantic labels and uses this feedback to correct detection errors. This feedback loop ensures that inaccurate detections are identified and corrected, maintaining high detection precision while preserving the automated operation capability.
