Multimodal Color Recommendation in Vector Graphic Documents
Aug 08, 2023
Color selection plays a critical role in graphic document design and requires sufficient consideration of various contexts. However, recommending appropriate colors which harmonize with the other colors and textual contexts in documents is a challenging task, even for experienced designers. In this study, we propose a multimodal masked color model that integrates both color and textual contexts to provide text-aware color recommendation for graphic documents. Our proposed model comprises self-attention networks to capture the relationships between colors in multiple palettes, and cross-attention networks that incorporate both color and CLIP-based text representations. Our proposed method primarily focuses on color palette completion, which recommends colors based on the given colors and text. Additionally, it is applicable for another color recommendation task, full palette generation, which generates a complete color palette corresponding to the given text. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed approach surpasses previous color palette completion methods on accuracy, color distribution, and user experience, as well as full palette generation methods concerning color diversity and similarity to the ground truth palettes.
Color Recommendation for Vector Graphic Documents based on Multi-Palette Representation
Sep 22, 2022
Vector graphic documents present multiple visual elements, such as images, shapes, and texts. Choosing appropriate colors for multiple visual elements is a difficult but crucial task for both amateurs and professional designers. Instead of creating a single color palette for all elements, we extract multiple color palettes from each visual element in a graphic document, and then combine them into a color sequence. We propose a masked color model for color sequence completion and recommend the specified colors based on color context in multi-palette with high probability. We train the model and build a color recommendation system on a large-scale dataset of vector graphic documents. The proposed color recommendation method outperformed other state-of-the-art methods by both quantitative and qualitative evaluations on color prediction and our color recommendation system received positive feedback from professional designers in an interview study.
