  • Publication number: 20260004493
    Abstract: An image processing method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for training image generation models through semantic-aware denoising. The method obtains sample data including a sample image, its category, and identifier set. Training representation information is extracted from the sample identifier to represent training semantics expressing sample features under the category. A noise image is generated by adding marked noise to the sample image encoding. Based on training representation information, noise in the noise image is predicted. Model parameters are updated using differences between marked and predicted noise and between training semantics of the sample identifier and category semantics. The trained model performs denoising on noise images using text description information including sample identifiers to generate diffusion images.

  • Publication number: 20250371348
    Abstract: A text-to-image model training method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for enhancing text-to-image generation through object-aware training. The method trains a text-to-image model using cyclic iterative training with sample image and text pairs. Training involves selecting image-text sample pairs containing multiple objects, obtaining corresponding mask images and object class names that distinguish location regions of the objects, and inputting both the sample image with description text and the mask images with object class names into the model. The method obtains image predicted noise and object predicted noises, constructs a loss function based on these predictions, and performs parameter adjustment accordingly. This approach enables improved object-level understanding in text-to-image generation models.

  • Publication number: 20250142039
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an method and apparatus for generating an image, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining M original images of a target scene captured by M image acquisition devices, wherein each image acquisition device of the M image acquisition devices provides a different viewpoint of the target scene, and M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 8; performing, for each original image of the M original images, an image deformation process on the original image, based on depth information of the original image and internal and external parameters of the image acquisition device to obtain a deformed image; and performing a splicing process on M deformed images subjected to the image deformation process, to obtain an omni-directional stereo panoramic image.

  • Patent number: 9718937
    Abstract: The present invention provides a kind of inherent flame retardant rigid polyurethane foam. The production formula comprises 100 to 105 pbw of polyether polyol and reactive phosphorus-containing flame retardant, 2.5 to 3.5 pbw of amine catalyst, 0.8 to 2.5 pbw of tertiary amine catalyst, 0.8 to 2.5 pbw of foam stabilizer, 0.5 to 1.5 pbw of blowing agent, 135 to 150 pbw of isocyanates, and 0.05 to 0.1 pbw of organo-metallic catalyst, wherein the reactive phosphorus-containing flame retardant is 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol. The active monomers containing flame retarding elements are introduced into main chain and side chain of PU for modification, which permanently improves the flame retardancy of PU without obvious effect on other performance of PU matrix.
