Solution Overview

Problem

Collecting training data from multiple platforms for AI projects is time-consuming and prone to interruptions due to network and system maintenance, leading to higher time costs and resource wastage.

Innovation Solution

A method involving scanning multiple data sources to acquire information about training data, creating a collection list with identifiers and storage locations, and collecting the data based on this list, ensuring data tracking even if collection is interrupted.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If data collection is performed from multiple platforms without interruption handling, then data collection can proceed, but time costs increase and resources are wasted due to interruptions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata collection continuityVSAvoidtime cost
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by creating a collection list that records storage locations of training data before actual collection begins. This pre-planning enables the system to quickly resume collection after interruptions without wasting time searching for data locations again, thus resolving the contradiction between reliability and time cost.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If data collection continues without tracking storage locations, then collection process is simple, but interruptions cause resource wastage and require restarting

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecollection resumption capabilityVSAvoidcollection list management
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data collection process into distinct components: a collection list that stores metadata about training data locations, and the actual data collection process. This segmentation allows the system to manage complexity by separating tracking functions from collection functions, enabling reliable resumption without overwhelming complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Productivity

If multiple data sources are scanned without organization, then data acquisition is thorough, but tracking and collection become inefficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata collection efficiencyVSAvoidstorage location information
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies copying by creating a collection list that contains copied metadata (storage locations) of training data from multiple data sources. Instead of managing the actual data and its locations, the system copies only the essential location information into the collection list, improving productivity while preventing loss of location information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
