Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information processing devices do not effectively reflect the relevance between sensor data and the position information of sensors in training data, limiting the analysis and processing of image data.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device that includes a storage unit and an inference unit, where the storage unit stores an image recognition program or model, and the inference unit extracts specific information from image data by disposing symbols corresponding to numerical data at positions associated with that data in a specific space, allowing for the reflection of position information in processing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If sensor data is processed without incorporating position information, then processing simplicity is maintained, but the relevance between numerical data and sensor position is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms sensor data processing by adding a spatial dimension through image data. Position information is incorporated by representing sensor locations and their corresponding numerical data as visual elements in an image, allowing the system to process both numerical values and their spatial positions simultaneously without significantly increasing processing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces image data as an intermediary representation between raw sensor data and the analysis system. This intermediary format naturally encodes both numerical data and position information in a unified structure, enabling the system to preserve position relevance while maintaining processing simplicity through existing image processing capabilities.
2Measurement precision
If position information is integrated into sensor data processing, then analysis accuracy is improved, but processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
By converting sensor data into image representation, the system adds spatial dimensionality that naturally preserves position information. This allows the analysis system to achieve higher accuracy by considering both numerical values and their positions simultaneously, while the image processing framework keeps the processing complexity manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent leverages the universality of image processing techniques to handle sensor data with position information. By using a unified image-based approach, the system can process diverse sensor data types while automatically preserving their spatial relationships, achieving high analysis accuracy without requiring separate complex processing pipelines for each data type.
