  • Publication number: 20240153153
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that include a processor executing a program to receive an input from a user, where the input including a first input text and a second input text. The processor is further configured to provide an initial image and, for a predetermined number of iterations, define a first and second regions of the initial image associated with the first and second input texts, respectively, define a plurality of patches of the initial image, input the initial image into a diffusion process to generate a processed image, back-propagate the processed image through a text-image match gradient calculator by generating an image embedding based on the processed image, generating a text embedding based on the region and the input text that are associated with a patch, and calculating a differential between the image embedding and the text embedding.

  • Publication number: 20240153152
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that include a processor executing a program to receive input text from a user. The processor is further configured to, for a predetermined number of iterations, input an initial image into a diffusion process to generate a processed image, back-propagate the processed image through a text-image match gradient calculator to calculate a gradient against the input text, and update the initial image with an image generated by applying the calculated gradient to the processed image. The pixel values of the processed image during a first portion of the predetermined number of iterations are value clamped to a first range, and pixel values of the processed image during a second portion of the predetermined number of iterations are value clamped to a second range that is a subset of the first range.

  • Publication number: 20240153151
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that include a processor executing a program to process an initial image through a first diffusion stage to generate a final first stage image, wherein the first diffusion stage includes using a diffusion model, a gradient estimator model smaller than the diffusion model, and a text-image match gradient calculator. The processor further executes the program to process the final first stage image through a second diffusion stage to generate a final second stage image. The second diffusion stage includes, for a second predetermined number of iterations, inputting the final first stage image to through the diffusion model, back-propagate the image through the text-image match gradient calculator to calculate a second stage gradient against the input text, and update the final first stage image by applying the second stage gradient to the final first stage image.

  • Publication number: 20240153194
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that include a processor executing a program to match sentences from a sentence dataset with artistic phrases from an artistic phrase dataset to generate a plurality of safe phrases. The processor is further configured to, for each of the safe phrases, generate a safe image by, for a predetermined number of iterations, performing steps to input an initial image into a diffusion process to generate a processed image, wherein the diffusion process includes a first diffusion model, back-propagate the processed image through a text-image match gradient calculator to calculate a gradient against the safe phrase, and update the initial image by applying the gradient to the processed image. The processor is further configured to pair each of the generated safe images with their respective safe phrase to form a plurality of safe phrase-image pairs.

  • Publication number: 20230118966
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for video generation corresponding to a user input. Given a user input, a story video with content relevant to the user input can be generated. One aspect includes a computing system comprising a processor and memory. The processor can be configured to execute a program using portions of the memory to receive the user input, generate a story text based on the user input, generate a plurality of story images based on the story text, and output a story including the story text and a story video having content corresponding to the story text, wherein the story video includes the plurality of story images. Additionally or alternatively, the story video can include audio data and a plurality of generated animated videos, each animated video corresponding to a story image in the plurality of story images.
