Abstract: A system and method for rich content transformation are provided. The system and method allow rich content transformation to be separately processed on a client device and on a cloud-based server. The client device downsizes a rich content and transmits the downsized rich content to the cloud-based server via a network. The cloud-based server calculates function parameters based on the downsized rich content using one or more machine learning models included in the server. The calculated function parameters are transmitted to the client device via the network. The client device then applies these function parameters to the rich content on the client device to obtain the transformed rich content.
