Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If manual design by designers is used to generate new fonts, then font quality and creativity are improved, but time consumption and cost increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical design process with an automated neural network system. The font generation network learns font attributes from training samples and automatically generates new fonts by interpolating attribute vectors, eliminating the need for manual designer intervention while maintaining font quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms font design from a manual creative process to a parameter-based computational process. By representing fonts as vectors of attributes (thickness, stroke width, curvature) and interpolating these parameters mathematically, the system can generate infinite font variations by changing parameter values without manual redesign.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual design by designers is used to generate new fonts, then font creativity and uniqueness are improved, but production efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal font generation system that can produce diverse font styles through a single neural network model. The network learns multiple font attributes during training and can generate various font types by adjusting input parameter combinations, making one system capable of performing multiple font design functions simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the slow manual design process with automated computational generation. The neural network processes font attribute interpolation computations rapidly, generating fonts in seconds compared to the hours or days required for manual design, thereby dramatically improving production efficiency while maintaining diversity.
3Stability of the object's composition
If traditional font generation methods are used, then font style consistency is maintained, but resource consumption and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces resource-intensive manual design processes with computationally efficient neural network inference. Once trained, the font generation network consumes minimal resources to produce fonts by performing vector interpolations, eliminating the need for repeated manual design iterations and reducing overall resource consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary training of the neural network on a comprehensive dataset of font attributes before actual font generation. This preliminary learning phase enables the network to maintain style consistency during subsequent generations by applying learned patterns, reducing the need for resource-intensive quality checking and adjustments.

AI summary
The embodiments of the application disclose a method of font generation. When generating a new font, the method includes: obtaining a fifth character providing a font content and a character set providing font attributes, the character set including a sixth character and a seventh character, where a font attribute of the sixth character being different from a font attribute of the seventh character; inputting the fifth character, the sixth character, and the seventh character into a pretrained font generation network to obtain a target character, a font content of the target character being the font content provided by the fifth character, a font attribute of the target character being determined by the font attribute of the sixth character and the font attribute of the seventh character. In the application, since the training samples used when the font generation network is trained include the first character and the second character with different font attributes, the trained font generation network may accurately extract the font attributes of different characters and obtain new font attributes by interpolating different font attributes.
