[0018] Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in greater detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While certain embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it is understood that the present disclosure can be embodied in various forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so as to more completely and thoroughly understand the present disclosure. It is understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are for exemplary purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

[0019] It should be noted that the titles of any sections / sub-sections provided herein are not limiting. Various embodiments are described throughout, and any type of embodiment can be included under any section / sub-section. Moreover, embodiments described in any section / sub-section can be combined with any other embodiments described in the same section / sub-section and / or different section / sub-section in any manner.

[0020] In the description of embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "includes" and its derivatives, such as "including," should be understood in an open, inclusive sense, that is, "including, but not limited to." The term "based on" should be understood as "based at least in part on." The term "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment."

[0021] Data of users, acquisition and / or use of data, etc. can be involved in embodiments of the present disclosure. These aspects all comply with corresponding laws and regulations and relevant provisions. In embodiments of the present disclosure, all collection, acquisition, processing, processing, forwarding, use, etc. of data are performed on the premise that users are aware of and confirm. Accordingly, when implementing embodiments of the present disclosure, the type of data or information that can be involved, the range of use, the scenario of use, etc. should be informed to users and authorized by users in a proper manner according to relevant laws and regulations.

Users refuse to process personal information other than the necessary information required for basic functions, which will not affect the user's use of basic functions.

[0023] As mentioned above, in the editing scenario of media content, replacing the hairstyle of a person is a common editing requirement. Some traditional editing tools can achieve the replacement of the hairstyle by superimposing the visual content corresponding to the hairstyle into the media content. However, the replacement result of the hairstyle obtained based on this way has poor reality.

[0024] Embodiments of the present disclosure propose a scheme for processing media content. According to the scheme, a first media content is displayed in an editing interface, the first media content comprising a plurality of face objects; in response to a selection of a first face object in the plurality of face objects, a set of templates is displayed in the editing interface, the set of templates being associated with different hair styles; and in response to a selection of a target template in the set of templates, a second media content is displayed in the editing interface, the second media content comprising first visual content corresponding to a target hair style indicated by the target template and second visual content corresponding to the first face object, the first visual content being visually associated with the second visual content, the second media content being generated based on the first media content and a preset prompt item corresponding to the target template.

[0025] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can apply a specified hair style (e.g., hairstyle and / or color) to a person or other object in the media content, and improve the reality of the generated media content.

[0026] Various example implementations of the scheme are described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example Environment

[0028] FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. As shown in FIG. 1, the example environment 100 can include an electronic device 110.

[0029] In this example environment 100, the electronic device 110 can run an application 120 that supports interface interaction. The application 120 can be any suitable type of application for interface interaction, examples of which can include, but are not limited to, a camera application, a clipping application, or other suitable application. A user 140 can interact with the application 120 via the electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0030] In the environment 100 of FIG. 1, if the application 120 is in an active state, the electronic device 110 can present an interface 150 for supporting interface interaction through the application 120.

[0031] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to enable provisioning of services of the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal, or portable terminal including a mobile handset, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a palmtop computer, a portable gaming terminal, a VR / AR device, a Personal Communication System (PCS) terminal, a personal navigation device, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio broadcast receiver, an electronic book device, a game device, or any combination thereof, including an accessory or peripheral device for the foregoing, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface to a user (such as “wearable” circuitry, etc.).

[0032] The server 130 can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and basic cloud computing services such as big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0034] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only, and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0035] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Example Interaction

[0037] FIGS. 2A-2B illustrate example interfaces 200A-200B, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. The interfaces 200A-200B can be provided by, for example, the electronic device 110 illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 2A, the electronic device 110 can provide an editing interface 200A for editing a first media content 205.

[0039] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can identify a plurality of facial objects in the first media content 205, e.g., a facial object 210-1 and a facial object 210-2 (individually or collectively referred to as facial objects 210).

[0040] Further, the electronic device 110 can receive a selection of the facial object 210-1 in the interface 200A. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a tap, a long press, or the like of the facial object 210-1 by a user to determine that the user selects the facial object 210-1.

[0041] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also display, in the interface 200A, indication elements corresponding to the plurality of facial objects 210, e.g., an indication element 215-1 and an indication element 215-2.

[0042] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can receive a preset operation (e.g., a tap) of the indication element 215-1 by a user, which indicates a selection of the first facial object 210-1.

[0043] Further, as shown in FIG. 2A, the electronic device 110 may, for example, display the indication element 215-1 according to a target style to represent that the corresponding first facial object 210-1 is in a selected state. For example, the electronic device 110 can change a color, a line width, or the like of the indication element 215-1.

[0044] As shown in FIG. 2A, the electronic device 110 can provide, in the interface 200A, a set of templates in response to the selection of the first facial object 210-1, e.g., a template 220-1, a template 220-2, a template 220-3, and a template 220-4 (individually or collectively referred to as templates 220).

[0045] In some embodiments, such templates 220 can correspond to different hairstyles. In some embodiments, different templates 220 can also correspond to different preset hint items. As will be introduced below, such preset hint items can be used to generate an application result of a hairstyle.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2A, the electronic device 110 can further provide a label 225 for editing the hairstyle and a label 230 for editing the hair color. The editing process regarding the hair color will be described with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B.

[0047] Further, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a selection of the template 220-3 by the user. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 2B, the electronic device 110 can display a second media content 235 in the interface 200B. The second media content 235 can be corresponding to the selected template 220-3, i.e., the hairstyle corresponding to the template 220-3 can be applied to the first face object 210-1.

[0048] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2B, the second media content 235 can include a visual content 240-1 corresponding to the first face object 210-1. The visual content 240-1 can include a first visual content corresponding to the target hairstyle, i.e., the hair portion in the picture. Additionally, the visual content 240-1 can further include a second visual content corresponding to the first face object 210-2, i.e., the face portion in the picture.

[0049] In some embodiments, the second visual content can be consistent with the picture portion corresponding to the first face object 210-1 in the first media content 205. In some embodiments, the second visual content can be further generated based on at least part of the visual content of the first media content. For example, compared with the first media content 205, the second media content 235 can adaptively adjust the face picture of the first face object 210-1.

[0050] In some embodiments, in the second media content 235, the visual content 240-2 corresponding to the second face object 210-2 without the adjusted hairstyle can be consistent with the first media content 205.

[0051] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can further receive a request for regenerating the second media content 235. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, the electronic device 110 can update the template 220-3 to an entry for initiating the request for regenerating.

[0052] Accordingly, the electronic device 110 can receive a preset operation on the template 220-3, and can accordingly trigger the generation of a new third media content based on the first media content 205 and the preset prompt item corresponding to the template 220-3.

[0053] In some embodiments, the second media content and the third media content can be associated with different seed files to ensure that the regenerated third media content is different from the second media content.

[0054] The specific generation process of the second media content 235 will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 4, which is not described here in detail.

[0055] Through the above-described process, embodiments of the present disclosure can support replacing the hairstyle of a person or other object in media content (e.g., a picture or a video) by using generative artificial intelligence technology, and provide a more realistic generation result.

[0056] In some embodiments, embodiments of the present disclosure can also support editing the color of the hair. An example process of editing the color of the hair will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B.

[0057] As shown in FIG. 3A, the electronic device 110 can provide an editing interface 300A for editing the media content 305. Similarly, the media content 305 may, for example, include one or more face objects, such as face object 310-1 and face object 310-2 (individually or collectively referred to as face object 310).

[0058] Further, the electronic device 110 can receive a selection of the face object 310-2 in the interface 300A. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a user operation of tapping, long-pressing, or the like on the corresponding position of the face object 310-2 to determine that the user selects the face object 310-2.

[0059] Alternatively, the electronic device 110 can display the indication element 315-1 and the indication element 315-2. Further, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a preset operation of the user on the indication element 315-2, and accordingly determine that the user selects the face object 310-2.

[0060] Further, the electronic device 110 can provide a color configuration control in the interface 300A. Taking FIG. 3A as an example, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a selection of the label 330 to provide the color configuration control. As an example, the electronic device 110 may, for example, also receive a selection of the label 325 to provide a set of templates corresponding to different hairstyles as shown in FIG. 2A.

[0061] Further, as shown in FIG. 3A, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a configuration operation of the user via the color configuration control, and determine a target color to be applied. For example, the electronic device 110 may, for example, provide a plurality of templates (also referred to as a second set of templates) corresponding to different preset colors, such as template 320-1, template 320-2, template 320-3, and template 320-4, by using the color configuration control. Further, the electronic device 110 may, for example, receive a selection of the template 320-4 corresponding to “color D” by the user. In some embodiments, the color configuration control may, for example, also specify the target color to be applied by other appropriate manners.

[0062] Further, the electronic device 110 can display the editing result of the media content 305. Specifically, the electronic device 110 can apply the selected specified “color D” to the target visual content in the media content 305, which can correspond to the hair associated with the selected face object 310-2.

[0063] In some embodiments, different colors can correspond to different preset prompt items. The electronic device 110 can utilize the generative model to generate new media content based on the preset prompt item corresponding to “color D” and the media content 305.

[0064] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3B, the electronic device 110 can present the generated media content 335. The media content 335 can include visual content 340-2 corresponding to the face object 310-2. The visual content 340-2 can include first visual content corresponding to the specified “color D”, i.e., the hair portion in the picture. Additionally, the visual content 340-2 can also include second visual content corresponding to the face object 310-2, i.e., the face portion in the picture.

[0065] In some embodiments, the second visual content can remain consistent with the picture portion in the first media content 305 corresponding to the first face object 310-2. In some embodiments, the second visual content can also be generated based on at least part of the visual content of the media content 305. For example, compared with the first media content 305, the second media content 335 can adaptively adjust the face picture of the face object 310-2.

[0066] In some embodiments, in the media content 335, the visual content 340-1 corresponding to the face object 310-1 without adjusted hair color can remain consistent with the media content 305.

[0067] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can further support replacement of hair color for a person or other object in media content (e.g., a picture or a video), thereby improving the editing efficiency of the media content.

[0068] Generation of media content

[0069] The following will continue to refer to FIG. 4 to describe an example process of generating media content corresponding to a target hair style. In some scenarios, the media content can be generated by the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130.

[0070] As shown in FIG. 4, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can obtain a first media content 405 to be processed, and can accordingly determine a plurality of regions corresponding to a plurality of face objects in the first media content, thereby generating mask data 410. It should be understood that the regions corresponding to the face objects include both face regions and corresponding hair regions.

[0071] Further, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can determine at least one target region in the plurality of regions, the at least one target region corresponding to at least one face object in the plurality of face objects different from the first face object.

[0072] For example, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can determine a difference between the mask data 410 and mask data corresponding to the face object whose hairstyle is to be edited, and accordingly determine at least one face region corresponding to other face objects.

[0073] Further, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can generate a first intermediate media content 415 by blurring the at least one target region in the first media content.

[0074] Additionally, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can provide the first intermediate media content 415 and a preset prompt item corresponding to a target hairstyle (e.g., a specified hairstyle and / or hair color) to a target model, thereby obtaining a second intermediate media content 420 generated by the target model. In some embodiments, the target model can include any appropriate generative model, and the present disclosure is not intended to be limited in this regard.

[0075] Additionally, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can generate a second media content 425 corresponding to the target hairstyle based on the first media content 405 and the second intermediate media content 420.

[0076] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can generate a second mask indicating a smoothing region based on a first mask corresponding to the first face object (i.e., the face object to be edited). As an example, the second mask can be determined based on a difference between the mask data 410 and the first mask.

[0077] Further, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can smooth the first media content 405 and the second intermediate media content 420 according to the second mask to generate the second media content 425. Based on such a smoothing operation, the generated second media content 425 can have a picture content corresponding to the first face object closer to the second intermediate media content 420, and other picture contents closer to the first media content 405.

[0078] Thus, the electronic device 110 and / or the server 130 can implement a more smooth picture transition, and improve the reality of the picture.
