Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If position detection and attribute detection are separated into distinct steps, then detection accuracy can be maintained, but computing resources and processing time increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges position detection and attribute detection into a single integrated neural network model. The network simultaneously outputs both position information (bounding boxes) and attribute information (object characteristics) from shared feature maps, eliminating the need for separate detection steps while maintaining accuracy through unified multi-task learning
Solution Approach 2:
The neural network is designed with multi-functionality to perform both position detection and attribute detection tasks simultaneously. The same network architecture and feature extraction processes serve dual purposes, making the system universally capable of handling multiple detection objectives without requiring separate specialized models
2Reliability
If separate detection steps are used for position and attributes, then comprehensive detection can be achieved, but device complexity and computational requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple detection functions into a single neural network architecture that processes images once and generates both position and attribute results simultaneously, reducing device complexity by eliminating redundant computational components and streamlining the detection pipeline
Solution Approach 2:
The patent discards the traditional sequential approach of separate detection steps and recovers computational efficiency by using shared feature maps that serve both detection tasks, thereby reducing overall computational requirements while maintaining comprehensive detection capabilities
3Measurement precision
If traditional object detection methods are used, then accurate results can be obtained, but real-time performance is not achieved on embedded terminals
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges position and attribute detection into a single unified process that operates in real-time on embedded terminals by sharing computational resources and processing steps, thereby reducing processing time while maintaining accurate detection results through efficient multi-task learning
