Wallpaper Switching by Foreground Consistency and Background Variation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wallpaper management technologies suffer from low correlation between images, leading to inconsistent interface display and reduced aesthetic alignment with user preferences, affecting user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that generate wallpapers with consistent foreground features across different display events, ensuring similar image composition and style, thereby maintaining interface consistency and enhancing user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If wallpaper images are randomly switched from the gallery, then the interest of wallpapers is improved, but the correlation between wallpaper images is low and interface display consistency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the selection parameters for wallpaper switching from random selection to selection based on feature dimensions. It identifies key features such as foreground object type, color scheme, and composition style, then selects wallpapers that match these parameters while maintaining consistency in specified feature dimensions, thereby achieving both variety and consistency.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments wallpaper images into multiple feature dimensions including foreground objects, background scenes, color palettes, and composition styles. By independently controlling which dimensions remain consistent and which can vary, it enables selective switching that maintains overall consistency while allowing controlled variation for interest.
2Ease of operation
If wallpaper images are randomly switched from the gallery, then manual switching operation is eliminated, but recommendation accuracy deteriorates as images may not meet user aesthetic preferences
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where user interactions with wallpapers (such as selection frequency, dwell time, or explicit ratings) are tracked and used to refine the recommendation algorithm. This feedback loop enables the system to learn user aesthetic preferences over time and improve recommendation accuracy while maintaining automated operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically analyzing user behavior patterns and aesthetic preferences without requiring manual input or configuration. It autonomously selects wallpapers that match inferred user preferences based on observed interaction patterns, eliminating the need for users to manually curate or configure wallpaper selection criteria.
3Adaptability or versatility
If different background pictures are used with same foreground object features, then wallpaper variety is improved, but image composition consistency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by maintaining strict consistency in specific local features (such as foreground object characteristics or color schemes) while allowing variation in other regions (such as background scenes). This selective consistency approach ensures that key compositional elements remain uniform while permitting variety in less critical areas.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces additional dimensionality to wallpaper selection by considering multiple independent feature dimensions simultaneously. It maintains consistency in certain dimensions (e.g., foreground object type) while allowing variation in other dimensions (e.g., background scene, time of day, weather conditions), effectively adding layers of control to achieve both variety and consistency.

AI summary
This application is applicable to the field of display technologies, and provides a wallpaper display method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes: displaying a first wallpaper when a first wallpaper display event is detected, where the first wallpaper includes a first foreground object and a first background picture; and displaying a second wallpaper when a second wallpaper display event is detected, where the second wallpaper includes a second foreground object and a second background picture, features of the first foreground object and the second foreground object are the same in a first feature dimension, and the first background picture is different from the second background picture. In the technical solutions provided in this application, foreground objects of displayed wallpapers maintain a same feature, and background pictures are different, to avoid a great difference between wallpapers after each change. This can improve interest of a wallpaper on an interface while improving interface consistency, thereby improving user experience.
