  • Publication number: 20250124212
    Abstract: In implementation of techniques for vector font generation based on cascaded diffusion, a computing device implements a glyph generation system to receive a sample glyph in a target font and a target glyph identifier. The glyph generation system generates a rasterized glyph in the target font using a raster diffusion model based on the sample glyph and the target glyph identifier, the rasterized glyph having a first level of resolution. The glyph generation system then generates a vector glyph using a vector diffusion model by vectorizing the rasterized glyph, the vector glyph having a second level of resolution different than the first level of resolution. The glyph generation system then displays the vector glyph in a user interface.

  • Publication number: 20240161355
    Abstract: Techniques for generating a stylized drawing of three-dimensional (3D) shapes using neural networks are disclosed. A processing device generates a set of vector curve paths from a viewpoint of a 3D shape; extracts, using a first neural network of a plurality of neural networks of a machine learning model, surface geometry features of the 3D shape based on geometric properties of surface points of the 3D shape; determines, using a second neural network of the plurality of neural networks of the machine learning model, a set of at least one predicted stroke attribute based on the surface geometry features and a predetermined drawing style; generates, based on the at least one predicted stroke attribute, a set of vector stroke paths corresponding to the set of vector curve paths; and outputs a two-dimensional (2D) stylized stroke drawing of the 3D shape based at least on the set of vector stroke paths.

  • Patent number: 11875442
    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for articulated part extraction using images of animated characters from sprite sheets by a digital design system. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods comprise receiving an input including a plurality of images depicting an animated character in different poses. The disclosed systems and methods further comprise, for each pair of images in the plurality of images, determining, by a first machine learning model, pixel correspondences between pixels of the pair of images, and determining, by a second machine learning model, pixel clusters representing the animated character, each pixel cluster corresponding to a different structural segment of the animated character. The disclosed systems and methods further comprise selecting a subset of clusters that reconstructs the different poses of the animated character. The disclosed systems and methods further comprise creating a rigged animated character based on the selected subset of clusters.

  • Publication number: 20230360376
    Abstract: Semantic fill techniques are described that support generating fill and editing images from semantic inputs. A user input, for example, is received by a semantic fill system that indicates a selection of a first region of a digital image and a corresponding semantic label. The user input is utilized by the semantic fill system to generate a guidance attention map of the digital image. The semantic fill system leverages the guidance attention map to generate a sparse attention map of a second region of the digital image. A semantic fill of pixels is generated for the first region based on the semantic label and the sparse attention map. The edited digital image is displayed in a user interface.
