Solution Overview

Problem

Existing social media platforms limit the use of AI-generated effects for face decoration due to the need for manual adjustments, making it difficult for non-advanced users to create and apply these effects effectively, especially in real-time video editing.

Innovation Solution

A computing system that utilizes an AI model to generate face decoration textures based on a user's input, including a base image, an image mask, and a text prompt, allowing for precise application of effects like masks or makeup, with features like skin tone matching and live video editing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If manual adjustment is required to finalize AI-generated effects, then the precision and quality of the effect can be improved, but the ease of operation and accessibility for laypersons deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffect qualityVSAvoiduser accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automatic face detection, region segmentation, and effect application without requiring user intervention. The AI model automatically identifies facial features, determines appropriate decoration regions, and applies effects based on user preferences, making the system self-sufficient and eliminating the need for manual adjustments by users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary face analysis, region segmentation, and effect preparation before final application. By pre-processing the base image to identify facial structures and pre-generating appropriate decoration options, the system eliminates the need for users to perform manual adjustments during the effect application process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Manufacturing precision

If manual effect creation is done in image editing software, then the manufacturing precision can be improved, but the productivity and time efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffect qualityVSAvoideffect creation speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system replaces manual mechanical operations in image editing software with automated AI-based processing. Instead of requiring users to manually create and adjust effects, the AI model automatically generates and applies face decoration effects, dramatically increasing productivity while maintaining or improving quality through consistent algorithmic application.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses the base image and detected facial features as templates to automatically generate appropriate decoration effects. By copying and adapting proven effect designs from the library based on the specific input image characteristics, the system rapidly produces high-quality effects without manual creation time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Productivity

If AI-generated images are used without further manual adjustment, then the productivity is improved, but the manufacturing precision and quality deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveeffect generation speedVSAvoideffect quality
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system incorporates feedback loops where the AI model generates initial effect options, which are then automatically evaluated against quality criteria such as facial feature alignment, aesthetic appropriateness, and technical specifications. The model iteratively refines its output based on this automated feedback, ensuring high quality without requiring manual user adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary quality assessment and automatic refinement of AI-generated effects before final application. By pre-evaluating generated effects against quality standards and automatically making necessary adjustments, the system ensures high manufacturing precision is achieved through automation rather than manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Ease of operation

If real-time video editing with AI effects is implemented, then the ease of operation is improved, but the use of energy and computational resources worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time editing capabilityVSAvoidcomputational energy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary face detection, region segmentation, and effect pre-rendering during idle periods or before video playback. By preparing processed data and pre-computing effect applications in advance, the system reduces the computational burden during real-time video editing, enabling smooth real-time performance with lower energy consumption during actual playback.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the video processing into distinct stages: initial frame analysis, effect application, and rendering. By processing only relevant regions (facial areas) rather than entire video frames and reusing processed data across multiple frames, the system significantly reduces computational energy requirements while maintaining real-time editing capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A computing system provides a social media platform. The computing system includes one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored in associated memory to receive a base image including a human face and receive an image mask defining a region for inpainting to occur and a region for inpainting to not occur. The region for inpainting to not occur includes at least an eye region. The one or more processors are configured to receive a user text prompt and generate, at an artificial intelligence (AI) model, a face decoration texture using the base image, the image mask, and the user text prompt as input.
