Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining a first upper bound of a x-direction frame margin of a downsampled image and a second upper bound for a y-direction frame margin of the downsampled image. A total value for each row and column of a weighted grayscale image formed from the downsampled image may be determined. An outlier filtering may be applied to the determined total values for each row and column of the weighted grayscale image. A peak of pairwise ratios of consecutive values from left and right sides of the weighted grayscale image may be used to determine an x-margin, and a peak of pairwise ratios of consecutive values from top and bottom sides of the weighted grayscale image may be used to determine a y-margin. Content may be applied to the image based on the determined x-margin and y-margin values to form a composite image.

Then, the method analyzes the image and the image variations to place text items from the entry in the image and the image variations where the text items in the image and the image variations are formatted based on the guidelines in the guide for the entry. A plurality of design variants is generated for the entry based on the image and the image variations that include text items.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for automatically generating new content using a trained 1-to-N generative adversarial network (GAN) model. In disclosed techniques, a computer system receives, from a computing device, a request for newly-generated content, where the request includes current content.

After generating the N different versions of new content, the computer system transmits them to the computing device. The disclosed techniques may advantageously automate a content generation process, thereby saving time and computing resources via execution of the 1-to-N GAN machine learning model.

Abstract: An online system generates a set of content item variations for a reference content item that include different styles of text for the content item. The different styles of text are generated by applying machine-learned style transfer models, for example, neural network based models to reference text of the reference content item. The text variations retain the textual content of the reference text but are synthesized with different styles. The online system can provide the content item variations to users on an online experimental platform to collect user interaction information that may indicate how users respond to different styles of text. The online system or the content providers can effectively target users with content items that include the style of text the users respond to based on the collected information.

Subsequently, one or more media content items may be selected for insertion onto the bounding boxes on the image. The system may then cause a display of the image with the selected media content item overlaid onto the image within the selected bounding boxes.

Abstract: A textual properties model is used to infer values for certain font properties of interest given certain text-related data, such as rendered text images. The model may be used for numerous purposes, such as aiding with document layout, identifying font families that are similar to a given font families, and generating new font families with specific desired properties. In some embodiments, the model is trained from a combination of synthetic data that is labeled with values for the font properties of interest, and partially-labeled data from existing “real-world” documents.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to measuring presentation aspects of portions of a user interface (UI) that have been identified to be presented neutrally and automatically generating a new UI that reduces differences in the presentation aspects of the identified portions. Portions of the UI identified to be presented neutrally may include elements or content in the UI identified to be presented neutrally. Portions for neutral presentation may include portions of UI that, for example, portions that present legal decisions, portions with survey data, forms or information displays, or portions where a user is requested to make a choice between alternative options. Presentation aspects that may be measured include, for example, visual aspects, clarity aspects, or tonal aspects. Reducing the differences in the presentation aspects may present the elements or content with more neutrality to reduce influence in decisions due to visual, clarity, or tonal aspects between the elements or content.
