Solution Overview

Problem

Processing streaming visual data in real-time to detect and predict sentiments, such as goals, motives, beliefs, intents, traits, and social interactions, is challenging due to its volume and complexity, especially in separating persons from objects and backgrounds.

Innovation Solution

A sequence of AI models, including frame-based and temporal-based models, is applied to extract and analyze visual data to detect sentiments. The frame-based models process individual frames to identify features, while the temporal-based models analyze changes over time, allowing for near real-time detection and prediction of sentiments.

1Speed

If visual data is processed in near real-time to detect sentiments, then responsiveness and applicability are improved, but processing complexity and computational load increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The processing system is divided into multiple sequential stages: frame-based feature extraction models process individual frames to identify basic features, then temporal-based models analyze sequences of features to detect sentiments. This segmentation allows real-time processing by breaking down complex analysis into manageable steps that can be executed sequentially with controlled computational load at each stage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Frame-based models perform preliminary feature extraction on individual visual frames before temporal-based models conduct sentiment analysis. By pre-processing and extracting key features in advance, the system reduces the computational burden on subsequent sentiment detection stages, enabling near real-time processing without overwhelming computational complexity.

If streaming visual data is processed quickly, then real-time response capability is improved, but processing accuracy may deteriorate due to reduced analysis time

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system continuously processes streaming visual data through an unbroken pipeline of frame-based feature extraction followed by temporal-based sentiment analysis. This continuous processing ensures that every frame is analyzed without interruption, maintaining both high throughput and accurate detection by keeping the analysis pipeline constantly active and synchronized with the data stream.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

Solution Approach 2:

By performing frame-based feature extraction as a preliminary step before temporal sentiment analysis, the system prepares data in advance for more accurate classification. This preliminary processing ensures that key features are identified and organized before the more computationally intensive sentiment detection, improving both speed and accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If a sequence of multiple AI models is used to detect sentiments, then detection accuracy is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The multi-model sequence is segmented into frame-based models for basic feature extraction and temporal-based models for sentiment detection. Each segment performs a specific function with optimized computational requirements, allowing the system to achieve high detection accuracy through specialized processing at each stage rather than using a single monolithic model that would require excessive time and resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
