Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional testing methods are used for intelligent sensing systems, then the testing process is simple, but the measurement precision of sensing capability is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesensing capability assessment accuracyVSAvoidtesting system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The testing system is segmented into multiple independent modules: a data generation module that creates scenario-based test samples, a testing module that executes recognition tasks, and an evaluation module that calculates quantitative grades. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function with high precision while maintaining overall system manageability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary evaluation mechanism that uses scenario-based test samples with assigned scores and labels. This intermediary layer transforms the complex sensing capability assessment into a structured comparison between recognition results and ground truth labels, enabling precise measurement without requiring direct complex measurement of sensing capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If comprehensive scenario-based test samples are used, then the evaluation coverage is improved, but the loss of time for testing increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevaluation coverage across scenariosVSAvoidtesting duration
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Test samples are prepared in advance with pre-assigned scores, labels, and scenario descriptions. The data generation module creates comprehensive scenario-based samples before the actual testing phase, including various target types, scenarios, and difficulty levels. This preliminary preparation allows the testing phase to proceed efficiently without time-consuming sample creation during execution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The evaluation method changes parameters by using weighted scoring systems where different sample types and difficulty levels have different scores. The evaluation module calculates quantitative grades by aggregating results with appropriate weights, allowing comprehensive scenario coverage while managing testing time through parameter-based prioritization and weighting of test cases.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

Solution Approach 1:

The evaluation module implements a feedback mechanism that compares recognition results against pre-defined labels and calculates quantitative grades automatically. The system provides objective feedback by computing numerical scores based on matching recognition results with ground truth, eliminating subjective assessment while maintaining system simplicity through automated calculation algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The testing system performs self-evaluation by automatically comparing recognition results with pre-defined labels and calculating quantitative grades without external intervention. The evaluation module autonomously processes test results, computes scores based on the grading system, and generates objective assessments, reducing the need for complex external evaluation apparatus.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

An intelligent sensing system can output an identification result about a target on the basis of input data to be identified, the data comprising a scene and the target included in the scene. An intelligent sensing method involves: acquiring a plurality of test samples each including a score value, a label, and first data of the sample; for each sample, determining whether an identification result is correct to obtain a first grade; summing the first grades of all the samples, and dividing the sum by a sum of the score values of all the samples to obtain a second grade for evaluating the sensing capability of the intelligent sensing system. An objective quantitative score can be given to the identification capability of the intelligent sensing system, and the identification capability of the intelligent sensing system can be comprehensively investigated with respect to various scene types.
