Abstract
Examples disclosed herein describe aspect ratio conversion techniques for automated image generation. An image generation request comprising a prompt is received from a user device. A processor-implemented automated image generator may generate a first image based on the prompt. The first image has a first aspect ratio. According to some examples, a region of interest is determined in the first image, based on a prompt alignment indicator for the region of interest. The first image is then processed to obtain a second image. The processing includes an automatic cropping operation directed at the region of interest. The second image has a second aspect ratio that is different from the first aspect ratio. The second image is caused to be presented on the user device.
