Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing smart device control systems struggle to determine the appropriate execution device when a user's instruction is non-directional, leading to ambiguity among multiple capable devices.
Innovation Solution
A device control method that acquires user, environmental, and device information to determine the optimal execution device through multi-modal fusion feature representation and attention-weighting processing, utilizing a feature fusion network and device selection network to select the appropriate device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple smart devices are deployed to provide versatile functionality, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases and makes it difficult to determine the appropriate execution device
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a central control system that acts as an intermediary between the user and multiple smart devices. This control system receives user instructions, analyzes device states from multiple devices, and determines which device should execute the instruction. The intermediary resolves the complexity by centralizing the decision-making process, allowing multiple devices to maintain their specialized functions while eliminating the user's burden of selecting the appropriate device.
2Measurement precision
If the system considers multiple information modalities (user information, environmental information, device information) to accurately determine the execution device, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the information processing task into distinct modules: a user information acquisition module, an environmental information acquisition module, and a device information acquisition module. Each module independently collects and processes its specific type of information. The control system then integrates these segmented information streams to make the final device selection decision. This segmentation reduces complexity by organizing the processing of multiple information modalities into separate, manageable components.

AI summary
The application provides a device control method, a conflict processing method, a corresponding apparatus, and an electronic device. The method includes: acquiring an input instruction of user; acquiring at least one of the following information: user information, environmental information, device information; determining at least one execution device of the input instruction based on the acquired information and the input instruction; controlling the at least one execution device to perform a corresponding operation. The present application can determine at least one optimal execution device by using at least one of the obtained input instruction and the user information, the environment information, and the device information when the user does not specify the specific execution device, thereby better responding to the user.
