Samsung patents AI system that checks data quality before saving it

This patent describes a method for 5G or 6G networks to manage data used by artificial intelligence systems. It involves a central manager that receives new AI settings from an application and checks if they meet a specific quality standard before saving them to a shared database.

Why it mattersIt offers a structured way for mobile networks to ensure that AI models are updated with reliable data, which could help improve the consistency of future network services.

In the filing’s own words

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. For Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML)-related external parameter provision in a mobile communication system comprising a unified data manager (UDM), a network function (NF), an AI/ML application function (AF), a network exposure function (NEF), a unified data repository (UDR), and one or more user equipment (UE), a method includes receiving, at the UDM from the NF, a subscribe request including a request for a parameter, receiving, at the UDM from the AI/ML AF via the NEF, a parameter provision request including a parameter value for the parameter and an evaluation metric associated with the parameter value, determining, by the UDM, whether to update the UDR with the parameter value based on a threshold associated with the parameter and the evaluation metric, and if it is determined to update the UDR, updating, by the UDR, the UDR with the parameter value, and transmitting, by the UDM to the NF, a notification of the updated parameter value.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method performed by a unified data manager (UDM) in a communication system, the method comprising: receiving, from a network function (NF), a subscribe request including a request for a parameter; receiving, from an artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) application function (AF), via a network exposure function (NEF), a parameter provision request including a parameter value for the parameter and an evaluation metric associated with the parameter value; determining whether to update a unified data repository (UDR) with the parameter value based on a threshold associated with the parameter and the evaluation metric; in case that it is determined to update the UDR, updating the UDR with the parameter value; and transmitting, to the NF, a notification of the updated parameter value.
