Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If generative adversarial networks are used for stylized image processing, then stylized conversion can be performed on images, but the generated images fail to effectively combine specified styles with personalized features from original images

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestylized conversion capabilityVSAvoidimage generation effect
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the image processing into distinct modules: key point detection module, deformation coefficient calculation module, and stylized image generation module. This segmentation allows each module to specialize in specific tasks, improving overall precision while maintaining versatility. The key point detection identifies specific locations, the deformation module adjusts these points according to style requirements, and the generation module creates the final stylized image, ensuring both style application and personalization are achieved with high precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by detecting key points at specific locations in the image and applying deformation coefficients selectively to these key points rather than uniformly across the entire image. This allows different regions of the image to be stylized according to their specific characteristics and requirements, maintaining personalized features while applying specified styles, thereby resolving the contradiction between adaptability and manufacturing precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Adaptability or versatility

If existing image processing methods are used, then stylized processing can be performed, but user experience deteriorates due to poor image generation effects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestylized processing capabilityVSAvoiduser experience
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the system detects key points, calculates deformation coefficients based on style requirements and original image characteristics, and generates stylized images that are evaluated for quality. This feedback loop allows the system to iteratively improve the generation effects, ensuring high user experience while maintaining versatility in stylized processing capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes parameters such as deformation coefficients and key point positions to optimize the stylized image generation. By adjusting these parameters based on the original image characteristics and desired style, the system achieves high generation effects that enhance user experience while maintaining broad adaptability for different stylization tasks.
