Solution Overview

Problem

Existing face synthesis technologies using artificial intelligence are risky due to potential abuse and issues with portrait rights, as they often generate recognizable faces of real individuals, making them unsuitable for widespread use in content creation.

Innovation Solution

A method and device utilizing autoencoder technology in deep learning to generate virtual faces by combining face source data and background features, allowing for the creation of unique virtual persons that do not exist in the world, thereby avoiding recognizable individuals and minimizing portrait rights issues.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If face synthesis technology is used to create realistic faces, then content creation capability is improved, but the risk of abuse and portrait rights violations increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent creation capabilityVSAvoidabuse risk and portrait rights violations
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary verification system that acts as a mediator between face synthesis technology and its application. This system includes a verification module that checks generated faces against a database of real person faces, and a blocking module that prevents generation of faces that match real individuals. This intermediary mechanism enables content creation while filtering out harmful outputs that would violate portrait rights or enable abuse.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the verification module continuously monitors generated faces and provides feedback to the blocking module. When a generated face is detected to match a real person, the system learns from this feedback and adjusts its blocking parameters. This feedback loop enables the system to improve its ability to prevent abuse while maintaining content creation capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Manufacturing precision

If deep learning models are trained on existing face data, then face generation quality is improved, but the likelihood of generating recognizable real persons increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveface generation qualityVSAvoidrecognizability of generated faces
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the traditional mechanical approach of directly training deep learning models on face databases with a substituted system that includes verification and blocking modules. Instead of relying solely on the training data composition to prevent recognizability, the system uses an additional verification layer that checks generated faces against real person databases and blocks matches. This substitution enables high-quality generation while maintaining control over recognizability.

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

3Productivity

If face synthesis technology is made widely accessible, then content creation productivity is improved, but the potential for harmful use increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent creation efficiencyVSAvoidharmful use potential
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by implementing verification and blocking mechanisms before face synthesis output is released. The system proactively checks generated faces against databases of real persons and blocks potentially harmful outputs before they can be used. This preliminary verification enables widespread accessibility for legitimate content creation while preventing harmful uses in advance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
