Optimization Analysis of Two-Dimensional Animation Special Effects Design by Style Transfer Algorithm

The application of 5G communication technology and ultra- wideband technology in animation design has gradually improved the level of animation special effects design, and made the style transfer algorithm a research hotspot. The original two-dimensional animation special effects design cannot solve the problem of special effects optimization, and the special effects after optimization are poor. Therefore, this paper proposes a style transfer algorithm based on 5G communication to optimize and analyze the design of two-dimensional animation special effects. Firstly, ultra-wideband communication technology and animation technology are used to obtain the design parameters of animation special effects, and the design scheme is transformed through style transfer , and judge the special effects scheme according to the animation characteristics, and discard irrelevant 3D information. Then, according to the ultra- wide communication technology, the change rate and display effect of the special effect are analyzed, and compared with the actual reception effect, and adjusted Parameters and indicators for 2D animation special effects design. The special effect design results show that under the conditions of 5G network and ultra-wide communication, the style transfer algorithm can improve the realization effect of animation special effects. The lifting rate is greater than the actual design requirements, which can meet the needs of special effects design

Shape Animation with Combined Captured and Simulated Dynamics

We present a novel volumetric animation generation framework to create new types of animations from raw 3D surface or point cloud sequence of captured real performances. The framework considers as input time incoherent 3D observations of a moving shape, and is thus particularly suitable for the output of performance capture platforms. In our system, a suitable virtual representation of the actor is built from real captures that allows seamless combination and simulation with virtual external forces and objects, in which the original captured actor can be reshaped, disassembled or reassembled from user-specified virtual physics. Instead of using the dominant surface-based geometric representation of the capture, which is less suitable for volumetric effects, our pipeline exploits Centroidal Voronoi tessellation decompositions as unified volumetric representation of the real captured actor, which we show can be used seamlessly as a building block for all processing stages, from capture and tracking to virtual physic simulation. The representation makes no human specific assumption and can be used to capture and re-simulate the actor with props or other moving scenery elements. We demonstrate the potential of this pipeline for virtual reanimation of a real captured event with various unprecedented volumetric visual effects, such as volumetric distortion, erosion, morphing, gravity pull, or collisions

Transport-Based Neural Style Transfer for Smoke Simulations

Artistically controlling fluids has always been a challenging task. Optimization techniques rely on approximating simulation states towards target velocity or density field configurations, which are often handcrafted by artists to indirectly control smoke dynamics. Patch synthesis techniques transfer image textures or simulation features to a target flow field. However, these are either limited to adding structural patterns or augmenting coarse flows with turbulent structures, and hence cannot capture the full spectrum of different styles and semantically complex structures. In this paper, we propose the first Transport-based Neural Style Transfer (TNST) algorithm for volumetric smoke data. Our method is able to transfer features from natural images to smoke simulations, enabling general content-aware manipulations ranging from simple patterns to intricate motifs. The proposed algorithm is physically inspired, since it computes the density transport from a source input smoke to a desired target configuration. Our transport-based approach allows direct control over the divergence of the stylization velocity field by optimizing incompressible and irrotational potentials that transport smoke towards stylization. Temporal consistency is ensured by transporting and aligning subsequent stylized velocities, and 3D reconstructions are computed by seamlessly merging stylizations from different camera viewpoints.Comment: ACM Transaction on Graphics (SIGGRAPH ASIA 2019), additional materials: http://www.byungsoo.me/project/neural-flow-styl
