Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional comic image generation methods ignore the generation differences between various objects, leading to increased resource consumption and reduced efficiency and rationality in image drawing.

Innovation Solution

A comic image generating method and apparatus that acquire target objects of multiple categories in a comic storyboard, determine target images based on object levels (determined by importance), and combine these images according to image layer levels to produce a comic image.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If a unified generation standard is adopted for image drawing, then the drawing process is simplified, but resource consumption increases and efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedrawing process complexityVSAvoidimage drawing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by differentiating image generation standards based on object importance levels. High-importance objects use detailed generation modes while low-importance objects use simplified generation modes, allowing each object to receive appropriate processing quality rather than uniform treatment, thus optimizing resource consumption and improving overall efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Device complexity

If a unified generation standard is adopted for image drawing, then the drawing process is simplified, but resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedrawing process complexityVSAvoidresource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements local quality by assigning different generation standards to objects based on their importance levels. Critical objects receive high-quality detailed generation while less important objects receive simplified generation, enabling selective resource allocation that reduces overall resource consumption while maintaining necessary quality where needed

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Ease of manufacture

If all objects are drawn with the same detail level, then the generation process is uniform, but time consumption increases for lower-importance objects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvegeneration process uniformityVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by varying detail levels based on object importance. High-importance objects receive detailed generation while low-importance objects receive rapid simplified generation, creating non-uniform processing that reduces overall time consumption by avoiding unnecessary detailed processing on less critical objects

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A comic image generating method, a computer device and a storage medium, wherein the method includes: acquiring target objects of a plurality of categories in a comic storyboard, wherein the plurality of categories at least include a character category, a scene category and a prop category; determining, for the target object of each category, a target image matching the target object according to an object level of the target object, wherein the object level is determined according to a degree of importance of the target object, and target images corresponding to the target objects with different object levels are determined through different image determination modes; and combining the target images matching the target objects according to image layer levels corresponding to the plurality of categories, to obtain a comic image corresponding to the comic storyboard.
