Abstract: An image generation method obtains an original image. A character area, a background area, and a position of each flawless character in the original image are determined. The character area is segmented to obtain a first image of each flawless character. A background is removed from the first image to obtain a second image.

Third image processing is performed on the fourth images respectively to obtain fifth images. A similarity between each fifth image and the third image is calculated. When the similarity is greater than a defect threshold, a background image is segmented. Brightness of the background image is adjusted. The target fourth image and adjusted background image are synthesized. The method can generate images with defective characters quickly.
