description Pattern design is essential in various domains, especially in traditional lantern production, where patterns convey cultural history and artistic values. Our research presents an innovative generative model that produces customizable lantern patterns, integrating classical aesthetics with modern design features via a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based framework. The model was trained on an extensive dataset of over 17,000 pattern images over ten various categories. Experimental assessment demonstrates the model’s remarkable proficiency, achieving an Inception Score of 5.259, much surpassing the performance of other GAN-based approaches. This exceptional result demonstrates the effective integration of traditional pattern elements with AI-driven design processes. The model offers enhanced design flexibility via noise vector hybridization and post-processing techniques, allowing for accurate control over pattern production while preserving cultural authenticity. These capabilities make our model a valuable tool for modernizing lantern pattern design while maintaining classic artistic elements.
