Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple detection types are performed on image data to improve fraud detection accuracy, then the reliability of fraud detection is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefraud detection accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The fraud detection system is segmented into multiple independent detection types (deepfake detection, face morph detection, face swap detection, injection attack detection). Each detection type is implemented as a separate model that processes image data independently, then their results are aggregated. This segmentation allows the system to achieve high reliability through multiple specialized detectors while managing complexity by modularizing each detection function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple detection models are merged into a unified fraud detection system that aggregates their outputs. The deepfake model, face morph model, face swap model, and injection attack model all process the same image data and their results are combined to generate an aggregated fraud score. This merging approach improves reliability through ensemble methodology while the aggregation mechanism provides a clear integration strategy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If machine learning models are trained on diverse attack types to improve detection capability, then the adaptability to various fraud types is improved, but the difficulty of obtaining training data increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection capability for various fraud typesVSAvoiddifficulty of obtaining training data
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses synthetic data generation to create copies of fraudulent images for training purposes. Since obtaining real fraud data is difficult, the system generates synthetic deepfake, face morph, face swap, and injection attack images using AI models during the training phase. This copying approach enables the system to train on diverse attack types without requiring access to actual fraud data, thereby improving adaptability while resolving the data acquisition difficulty.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Measurement precision

If multiple detection models are applied to image data to enhance detection accuracy, then the measurement precision of fraud detection is improved, but the use of computational energy increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidcomputational energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies multiple detection models (deepfake, face morph, face swap, injection attack) to the same image data, which is an example of excessive action. By running more detection models than a single model would provide, the system achieves higher measurement precision through ensemble methodology. The partial action approach would be to apply only one detection model, but the patent chooses excessive action to ensure comprehensive coverage of multiple fraud types, accepting the increased computational energy cost as necessary for high-accuracy detection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
