Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual operations are used for restoring deformation defects in images, then restoration quality can be maintained, but processing efficiency is low and high skill levels are required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing efficiencyVSAvoidskill level requirement
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The image restoration model automatically performs deformation defect restoration without requiring manual operations. The system self-adjusts restoration parameters and processes images independently, eliminating the need for skilled manual intervention while maintaining high processing efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical operations with an automated image restoration model based on deep learning. The model substitutes human operators and manual processes with an intelligent system that automatically restores deformation defects, improving both efficiency and ease of operation

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

2Manufacturing precision

If pixel value distribution information from multiple channels is fused, then restoration quality improves, but processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverestoration qualityVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the image restoration process into multiple independent channels (color channel, transparency channel, and deformation field channel). Each channel processes specific aspects of the image separately, and their results are subsequently fused. This segmentation allows complex multi-channel processing to be broken down into manageable parts, improving restoration quality while controlling processing complexity through modular architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to an image processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes: inputting an original image including a deformation defect into an image restoration model to obtain first pixel value distribution information, second pixel value distribution information, and third pixel value distribution information, where a first output image includes the first pixel value distribution information used to describe pixel value distribution of the first output image in each color channel of a preset color space, the second pixel value distribution information used to describe pixel value distribution of the first output image in a transparency channel, and the third pixel value distribution information used to describe pixel value distribution of the first output image in each coordinate channel of a preset deformation field; and fusing these information to obtain a processed image.
