Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional line connection-type object prediction devices are used, then basic prediction functionality is provided, but prediction errors increase and analysis accuracy decreases when predicting structural formulas
Solution Approach 1:
The prediction device segments the structural formula into distinct components: atoms (nodes) and bonds (edges). The node detection unit detects atoms independently, while the edge detection unit detects bonds separately. This segmentation allows each component to be detected with specialized algorithms, improving overall prediction accuracy and reducing errors in structural formula analysis.
2Productivity
If conventional prediction methods are used, then basic analysis is performed, but computation speed is insufficient for complex structural formulas
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the complex task of structural formula analysis into parallel sub-tasks: node detection for atoms and edge detection for bonds. These segmented tasks can be processed independently and in parallel, significantly improving computation speed while maintaining or enhancing accuracy through specialized detection algorithms for each component type.
Solution Approach 2:
The device adjusts detection parameters dynamically based on the input image characteristics. The node detection unit and edge detection unit use optimized parameter sets tailored to their specific detection targets, allowing fast processing while maintaining high accuracy even for complex structural formulas with varying atom types and bond configurations.
3Measurement precision
If conventional prediction devices are used, then general object detection is achieved, but specific detection of nodes and edges in structural formulas is inaccurate
Solution Approach 1:
The detection system is segmented into specialized units: a node detection unit for detecting atoms and an edge detection unit for detecting bonds. Each unit is optimized for its specific detection target, achieving high precision in node and edge detection. The segmentation allows the system to handle the complexity of structural formulas through modular, specialized detection algorithms rather than a single general-purpose detector.
