Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a general-purpose learning model is used to cope with various operation environments and conditions, then the model can be applied to various situations, but the accuracy is low in any environment and conditions as compared with the accuracy of the model specialized in the environment and conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveapplicability to various situationsVSAvoidaccuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the learning model into a base model and multiple specialized models corresponding to different operation environments and conditions. The base model provides general capabilities while specialized models handle specific scenarios, allowing the system to select the appropriate model for each situation rather than using a single general-purpose model.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary learning to create multiple specialized models in advance for different operation environments and conditions. These pre-prepared models are stored and can be quickly selected and applied when needed, avoiding the need to train from scratch for each new situation while maintaining high accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Adaptability or versatility

If a general-purpose learning model is used to achieve versatility, then the model can handle various operation environments and conditions, but the complexity of the model increases and the amount of information necessary increases, resulting in an increase in operation cost and memory cost

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveversatilityVSAvoidmodel complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of creating one large complex general-purpose model, the patent divides the modeling task into a simple base model and multiple specialized models. Each specialized model is tailored to specific conditions rather than attempting to handle all scenarios, reducing the complexity of individual models while maintaining overall versatility through model selection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Measurement precision

If learning is performed from zero (from scratch) to achieve accurate determination and classification, then the accuracy is improved, but it takes considerable cost and time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetermination accuracyVSAvoidlearning time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary learning to create specialized models in advance for different operation environments and conditions. When a new situation arises, the system can directly select and apply the pre-prepared specialized model instead of training from scratch, dramatically reducing the time and computational cost while maintaining high accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates specialized models by copying and adapting from a base model rather than training entirely new models from scratch for each situation. This approach leverages the pre-trained features and structures of the base model, significantly reducing the learning time and computational resources required while achieving accurate determination and classification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

4Measurement precision

If a learned model is obtained through specialized learning for each device, then the accuracy is improved, but it is not possible to use the same learned model in devices different in operation environments and conditions, requiring learning again from scratch

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveabnormality detection accuracyVSAvoidmodel reusability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the learning model into a reusable base model and device-specific specialized models. The base model contains general knowledge that can be applied across different devices, while specialized models capture device-specific characteristics. This structure allows the base model to be reused across multiple devices while maintaining high accuracy through the addition of specialized components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a base model with universal applicability that can serve multiple devices with different operation environments and conditions. This base model is designed to handle general patterns and can be adapted to specific devices through the addition of specialized models, making it possible to reuse the same learned model across different devices rather than training entirely new models for each one.

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