A fuzzy control algorithm based on artificial intelligence for the fusion of traditional Chinese painting and AI...

Recently, artificial intelligence (AI)-generated resources have gained popularity because of their high effectiveness and reliability in terms of output and capacity to be customized and broadened, especially in image generation. Traditional Chinese paintings (TCPs) are incomplete because their color contrast is insufficient, and object reality is minimal. However, combining AI painting (AIP) with TCP remains inadequate and uncertain because of image features such as patterns, styles, and color. Hence, an algorithm named variational fusion-based fuzzy accelerated painting (VF2AP) has been proposed to resolve this challenge. Initially, the collected TCP data source is applied for preprocessing to convert it into a grayscale image. Then, the feature extraction process is performed via fuzzy-based local binary pattern (FLBP) and brushstroke patterns to enhance the fusion of intelligent fuzzy logic to optimize the local patterns of textures in a noisy image. Second, the extracted features are used as inputs to the variational autoencoder (VAE), which is used to avoid latent space irregularities in the image and the reconstructed image by maintaining minimum reconstruction loss. Third, fuzzy inference rules are applied to avoid variation in the fusion process of the reconstructed and original images. Fourth, the feedback mechanism is designed with evaluation metrics such as area under the curve-receiver operating characteristic (AUC-ROC) analysis, mean square error (MSE), structural similarity index (SSIM), and Kullback‒Leibler (KL) divergence to enhance the viewer's understanding of fused painting images.
