Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional image generation models, particularly diffusion models, struggle to accurately generate pattern images with high aesthetic quality and seamlessness, often requiring additional training that increases computational costs.

Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If conventional diffusion models are used for pattern generation, then the generation process is simple, but the aesthetic quality and seamlessness of generated patterns deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepattern generation qualityVSAvoidmodel complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The generation process is segmented into multiple diffusion time steps with varying sampling densities. The method divides the denoising process into early, middle, and late stages, applying different sampling strategies to each stage to optimize both quality and efficiency without requiring a completely complex model architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The method dynamically changes the sampling density parameter throughout the diffusion process. By adjusting the number of sampling steps at different time stages and modifying the noise rolling parameters, the system achieves high-quality pattern generation while controlling computational complexity through parameter optimization rather than model structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Manufacturing precision

If additional training is performed to improve pattern generation quality, then the aesthetic quality improves, but the computational cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepattern generation qualityVSAvoidcomputational cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The method applies preliminary actions during the generation process by performing prompt augmentation and sharpness classifier guidance at inference time rather than requiring additional training. This allows the base model to be trained once while achieving high quality outputs through preprocessing and postprocessing operations that enhance pattern aesthetics without repeated training computational costs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The method substitutes additional training (a mechanical iterative process) with alternative mechanisms such as noise-based scheduling functions, prompt augmentation, and sharpness classifier guidance. These substitutions achieve similar quality improvements through different computational approaches that reduce overall training computational costs while maintaining generation quality.

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

3Manufacturing precision

If uniform time step sampling is used, then the sampling process is simple, but the aesthetic quality and sharpness of generated patterns deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepattern sharpnessVSAvoidsampling complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The sampling process transitions from static uniform sampling to dynamic adaptive sampling. The method dynamically adjusts sampling density based on the diffusion time step, applying denser sampling at critical stages (early and late denoising) and sparser sampling in the middle stage. This dynamic approach enhances pattern sharpness and aesthetics while managing sampling complexity through adaptive rather than uniformly complex procedures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The method applies periodic action by implementing different sampling densities at different periods (time steps) of the diffusion process. Rather than maintaining a constant sampling rate, the system periodically varies the sampling intensity to match the denoising progress, achieving enhanced sharpness through rhythmic variations in sampling density that align with the generative process stages.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

A method, apparatus, non-transitory computer readable medium, and system for image generation include obtaining a noise input and an input prompt comprising a pattern element. A coordinate frame of the noise input is shifted based on a diffusion step to obtain a shifted coordinate frame. A synthetic image is generated, using an image generation model, by denoising the noise input based on the input prompt and the shifted coordinate frame. The synthetic image comprises a repetition of the pattern element.
