Solution Overview

Problem

Current machine-learning technologies lack efficient methods for managing and transferring machine-learned data between devices, which limits the sharing and enhancement of machine-learned skills, especially across different hardware configurations.

Innovation Solution

A computer-implemented method that obtains a machine-learned data set from a first device, determines the hardware requirements for the data set, and transfers it to a second device only if the second device meets those requirements, enabling the sharing of categorized machine-learned information and enhancing the second device's skills.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If machine-learned data sets are transferred between devices without hardware requirement verification, then data transfer speed is improved, but system reliability deteriorates due to incompatibility issues

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transfer speedVSAvoidsystem compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by determining hardware requirements and verifying device compatibility before transferring machine-learned data sets. The system checks whether the target device meets necessary hardware specifications (processor type, memory, storage) prior to initiating data transfer, preventing incompatibility issues while maintaining efficient transfer processes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If hardware requirement checks are performed before data transfer, then device compatibility is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice compatibilityVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs hardware requirement determination and compatibility verification as preliminary checks before data transfer initiation. By establishing clear hardware criteria in advance and implementing efficient verification logic, the system ensures compatibility while minimizing the time overhead of prerequisite checks

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If machine-learned data sets are shared across devices with different hardware configurations, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases due to compatibility management

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecross-device sharing capabilityVSAvoidcompatibility management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by establishing and evaluating specific hardware parameters (processor type, memory capacity, storage space) against predefined requirements for each machine-learned data set. The system dynamically assesses whether the target device's hardware parameters meet the necessary thresholds, enabling adaptable cross-device sharing while managing complexity through structured parameter validation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Management of machine-learned data between machine-learning devices is facilitated by a processor(s) obtaining a machine-learned data set of a first device, with the machine-learned data set of the first device being categorized machine-learned information. The processor(s) determines one or more device hardware requirements to use the machine-learned data set, and based on receiving a request to provide the machine-learned data set to a second device, determines whether the second device meets the one or more device hardware requirements to use the machine-learned data set of the first device. Based on determining that the second device meets the one or more device hardware requirements, the processor(s) provides the machine-learned data set of the first device to the second device to provide the categorized machine-learned information of the first device to the second device for use by the second device.
