Programmatic generation and optimization of images for a computerized graphical advertisement display

Abstract:

A computer receives a request for graphical display source code for a computerized graphical advertisement display, and retrieves seed images including a plurality of seed image features. The computer generates candidate images based on the one or more seed images, where the computer alters a first aspect of a seed image to generate an altered seed image having a plurality of altered seed image features and the computer alters a second aspect of the altered seed image to generate a candidate image having a plurality of candidate image features. The computer generates candidate image scores based upon a context of the advertisement display and the plurality of candidate image features. The computer selects an image from the candidate images based on the candidate image scores and generates the graphical display source code based on the selected image, a size of the advertisement display, and display capabilities of the user device.
