Solution Overview

Problem

Current short video apps lack effective methods to generate special effect videos that enhance user experience and make videos more interesting, as they rely on limited editing options and lack advanced algorithms for dynamic special effect integration.

Innovation Solution

A special effect video generation method and apparatus that acquires person portrait images and special effect information sequences, using a trained generative adversarial network model to produce and stitch special effect images into a cohesive video, improving aesthetics and authenticity through sequential processing and model training.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional video editing methods are used in short video apps, then the app structure remains simple and easy to operate, but the video content becomes boring and user experience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveapp operation simplicityVSAvoidvideo interest and user experience
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables automatic special effect video generation where the model autonomously processes portrait images and special effect information sequences to produce special effect videos without requiring manual user intervention for complex editing operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Traditional manual video editing operations are replaced by an automated special effect generation model that takes portrait images and special effect parameters as input and generates complete special effect videos programmatically

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

2Productivity

If advanced special effect generation models are deployed on mobile terminals, then user experience improves through high-quality special effect videos, but device complexity and computational resource requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespecial effect video generation qualityVSAvoidmodel deployment complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system separates the special effect generation model deployment into different tiers: complex models can be deployed on servers for high-quality generation, while simplified versions or pre-processed results can be used on mobile terminals, allowing quality optimization without forcing full model deployment on resource-constrained devices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses portrait images and special effect information sequences as intermediary representations that can be processed by the generation model. These structured inputs and outputs enable the model to operate efficiently on mobile devices by working with compact data representations rather than raw video data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a special effect video generation method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. One person portrait image or a plurality of person portrait images are acquired, and a special effect information sequence is obtained. The one person portrait image and the special effect information sequence are input into a first special effect generation model, or the plurality of person portrait images and the special effect information sequence are input into the first special effect generation model, to obtain a plurality of special effect images. The plurality of special effect images are stitched in the set order, to obtain a target special effect video.
