  • Patent number: 12699852
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that generate and implement semantic histories for digital image editing. For instance, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems determine, for a digital image, a first semantic state and a second semantic state that reflects a first semantic change in the digital image from the first semantic state. Additionally, the disclosed systems determine, for the digital image, a third semantic state that reflects a second semantic change in the digital image from the first semantic state. The disclosed systems further generate a semantic history log for the digital image, the semantic history log including a first editing branch corresponding to the second semantic state and a second editing branch corresponding the third semantic state. Based on one or more user interactions with the semantic history log, the disclosed systems modify the digital image.

  • Patent number: 12700204
    Abstract: Techniques for implementing 3D-aware transformations using a diffusion model are disclosed. A computing system receives an image of a three-dimensional (“3D”) object, a text prompt, and a 3D transformation. The computing system generates an initial state for a diffusion model. The computing system generates, using the diffusion model, a second image of the 3D object and intermediate representations of the second image, based on the initial state, a depth map, and the text prompt. The computing system generates 3D representations of the second image based on the intermediate representations, transformed 3D representations of the second image by applying the 3D transformation, and edited intermediate representations. The computing system generates, using the diffusion model and the edited intermediate representations, an edited image of the 3D object, based on the initial state, a second depth map, and the text prompt and outputs the edited image.

  • Publication number: 20260221075
    Abstract: In implementations of techniques and systems for independent alternating-input (“IAI”) devices, a control system includes multiple IAI devices and a logic circuit component. The logic circuit component includes, for example, an analog switch, a d-type latch, a shift register, and an LED driver. The control system provides a first voltage signal (e.g., a bus signal) to a first voltage input of each IAI device. In response to a control signal from the control system, the logic circuit component provides a second voltage signal to a second voltage input of each IAI device. The second voltage signal can include the bus signal or an inverted bus signal. Each IAI device is activated in response to a voltage differential across the voltage inputs. In this way, the quantity of IAI devices for large arrangements (e.g., high-resolution display systems) can be greatly increased by utilizing low-cost logic circuits.

  • Patent number: 12694640
    Abstract: Various disclosed embodiments are directed to automatically generating a score indicative of a recommendation for applying a color value to content in an image based on extracting features from one or more objects in the image. In other words, particular embodiments map currently detected objects in an image to objects of the same class of historical images, which are then mapped to their corresponding background colors in order to recommend a particular background color of an image. In an illustrative example, if a particular set of Christmas objects, such as a reindeer object and Santa object, have historically been included in a red background, particular embodiments recommend a red color for the background of a currently processed image that includes the same reindeer and Santa objects.

  • Patent number: 12694634
    Abstract: Aspects and features of the present disclosure relate to providing injective three-dimensional (3D) deformations based on two-dimensional (2D) mesh deformations. For example, a method involves defining at least one 2D mesh deformation based on a designated position of an object represented by an input neural radiance field (NeRF). The method also involves applying the 2D mesh deformation(s) to a 3D piecewise-linear map that operates over a plane and preserves a normal direction to produce prismatic maps. The method further involves composing a 3D deformation for the object from layers defined by the prismatic maps, and parameterizing the 3D piecewise-linear map. The method additionally involves storing or rendering, using the 3D piecewise-linear map, a deformed NeRF injectively representing the object in the designated position. Aspects also include computer systems, apparatus, and computer programs configured to perform the method.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media that provide a digital design interface for intuitively creating custom arrows that demonstrate both visual consistency and inherent directionality within vector-based design applications. In particular, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems receive a request to create a custom arrow from a digital object and a path segment. In addition, the disclosed systems detect that the digital object is within a threshold distance of the path segment and combine the digital object with the path segment to create a custom arrow object. In particular, the disclosed systems utilize a bilateral segmentation machine-learning model to segment the digit object and a symmetry axis detection model to determine an axis of symmetry of the digital object. Moreover, the disclosed systems attach the digital object to an endpoint of the path segment at the axis of symmetry.
