Automated Script Generation for Audio-Visual Presentations
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face challenges in generating speech content for presentations efficiently, as existing content development tools require detailed user input and do not offer automated assistance for creating speech that accompanies visual presentations.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented method for automatically generating a presentation script using a natural language generation model, which receives input from an input document, generates candidate scripts, and allows users to select and modify them, with optional text-to-speech synthesis for synchronized audio-visual presentations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If automated script generation using natural language generation models is implemented, then productivity and time efficiency are significantly improved, but device complexity and computational resources required increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs an input design model as an intermediary component that processes the input document and generates structured inputs for the natural language generation model. This intermediary layer simplifies the overall system architecture by handling document parsing, section identification, and input formatting, thereby reducing the complexity burden on the core NLG model while maintaining high productivity in script generation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the script generation process into distinct modular components: input document parsing, input design model processing, natural language generation model execution, and output script generation. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently, improving overall productivity while managing device complexity through distributed computation and specialized processing for each stage.
2Reliability
If multiple candidate scripts are generated and ranked, then script quality and user selection flexibility are improved, but computation time and processing resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a ranking model that generates and ranks multiple candidate scripts, but allows users to select from a limited top-ranked set rather than processing all possible candidates. This partial action approach maintains high script quality by considering multiple options while reducing processing time by not exhaustively evaluating every possible script variation, thus balancing reliability with time efficiency.
3Adaptability or versatility
If text-to-speech synthesis is integrated for audio-visual presentations, then presentation completeness and user experience are improved, but system complexity and resource requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates text-to-speech synthesis functionality into the existing script generation system, allowing the same platform to produce both text scripts and audio-visual presentations. This multi-functionality approach enhances adaptability and versatility by enabling users to generate presentations in multiple formats from a single input document, while sharing common processing components like the input design model and natural language generation model to minimize additional system complexity.

AI summary
Automatic generation of intelligent content is created using a system of computers including a user device and a cloud-based component that processes the user information. The system performs a process that includes receiving an input document and parsing the input document to generate inputs for a natural language generation model using a text analysis model. The natural language generation model generates one or more candidate presentation scripts based on the inputs. A presentation script is selected from the candidate presentation scripts and displayed. A text-to-speech model may be used to generate a synthesized audio presentation of the presentation script. A final presentation may be generated that includes a visual display of the input document and the corresponding audio presentation in sync with the visual display.
