Problem

Existing model generation techniques are limited in flexibility, particularly for models with multiple blocks, as they primarily involve serial connections and lack the ability to efficiently utilize input data features.

Innovation Solution

An information processing method that selects and combines different types of input data for each block in a model using a genetic algorithm to optimize the generation of models, allowing for flexible input data usage and improved accuracy.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a model with multiple blocks is generated using only serial connections, then the model structure is simple, but the flexibility in using input data is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility in using input dataVSAvoidmodel structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The model is divided into multiple independent blocks, each capable of receiving different types of input data. This segmentation allows each block to be optimized for specific data types while maintaining overall model flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of parallel connections between blocks, moving beyond the traditional single serial path. This allows multiple data types to flow through different block combinations simultaneously, enhancing flexibility without proportionally increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Measurement precision

If different types of input data are used for each block, then the model accuracy is improved, but the complexity of data management increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel accuracyVSAvoiddata management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The model architecture is designed with universal block structures that can handle multiple data types through parallel connections. Each block type is designed to be multi-functional, capable of processing different input types without requiring entirely separate processing paths.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts which blocks receive which data types based on the input characteristics. This parameter-based routing allows the model to optimize accuracy for different data combinations without hardcoding complex management rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
