New Olympic games Logo Designs -- Can Machine Learning help?

TL;DR Summary

New Olympic games logo designs.

Olympic games logo
We have the beautiful logo designed for Olympic games. Five rings of different colours each representing the Continent. Significance of friendship between all continents. Countries representing the Olympic games from various continents.

Questions

1 The Origin of this Olympic logo design can be attributed to Roman rings from the Gymnastics category?

2 if creative web designers would like to construct more Olympic logos from the Original Beautiful Olympic logo what could be the new Olympic logo designs?

3 Can machine learning, artificial intelligence technologies, image processing, computer vision assist in this regard?

I'm sure they could assist. The tricky part is how to train the ML component to recognize designs that humans would find attractive.

You could structure the application around a genetics algorithm where you generate a vector of components and their placement within the image and then you'd need an ML component to analyze and score image so that you can select the best images for the next round of the genetics algorithm to work with.

In generating an image, you'd have to be flexible by varying:
- number of rings,
- color of rings,
- shape of rings: triangle, square, pentagon... circle
- size of rings,
- x,y placement of rings
- background color
- background pattern vs image background

and even after all those selections you wouldn't cover other possible patterns that human creativity could come up with.

As an example, after I wrote the post I realized that you might want to adding shadowing or multiple reverberating copies of the rings and the list goes on...

How would one train an ML to decide which image pattern is more desirable over another? Your dataset of olympic images is rather limited to a few hundred at most. Maybe one could generate them and then get people to choose which ones they liked via some crowd sourcing scheme and use that to train the ML component.

Geometrical shapes.

Thank you.

In case other than Gymnastics category, what could be the other games considered for New Olympic logo designs?

Athletics, Football, Tennis, Wrestling, Boxing, Hockey, Swimming etc

Note : The Flame torch embedded in the new Olympic logo design should always be present.

The five circular rings represent five continents.

So new Olympic logo designs could not be necessary five circles but could be different five geometrical shapes (Pentagon etc) representing five continents with a different sport other than Gymnastics. The Flame Torch will always be part of the Logo image.

Here’s a recent Quanta magazine article on AI transformers technology. Towards the end of the article, there’s some discussion on using the tech to generate images from images.

Thanks.

Geometrical shapes

Five Hearts, Five Crosses, Five Stars, Five Pentagons etc.

Note : Heart, Cross, Star, Pentagon etc represent a continent similar to a ring in the Olympic games logo.

Graphic designer experts can certainly design new Olympic logos given them the background of current Olympic games logo.

Can machine learning, artificial intelligence technologies, image processing, computer vision assist in this regard?

Maybe yes. But they need training data. If you have a set of 250,000 images ranked by real people in order of beauty, then you could use the set to train an AI to recognize beauty.

Beware: creating beauty is not the same thing as recognizing beauty.

Baron Pierre de Coubertin

Baron Pierre de Coubertin was the founder of the modern Olympic Games. Inspired by the ancient Olympic Games held in Olympia, Greece, which ended in 393 AD, Frenchman Pierre de Coubertin decided to pursue his project to revive the Olympic Games.

The current Olympic games logo was designed by
Baron Pierre de Coubertin.

 

[akerkarprashant]

Thank you.

To add further, a good question in Quiz shows where the question could be "Who is the founder of modern olympic games"?
with four names as answers. To pick up the correct name from a choice of four names.

Five Hearts.

"Love" is Universal.

Husband-Wife
Parents-Children
Grandparent-Children
Sibling-Sibling
Friends-Friends
Employer-Employee
Continent-Continent
Countries-Countries

 

[jedishrfu]

Employer employee is going a bit too far. No employer I know would ever think that way as they need the flexibility to reduce all assets should the business take a downturn.

Employees that think that way will have a rude awakening someday.

"Love" is Universal.

Are you trying to change the message of the Olympics?
"Stronger, Faster, Higher" says not a thing about friendship or of love..

 

[akerkarprashant]

Thank you.

"Love is Universal". 5 Heart images signifies Love between the 5 continents and the countries within the 5 continents representing the different Olympic games.

I also searched for 5 crosses images, 5 stars images, 5 pentagon images in Google.

5 crosses images
5 stars images
5 pentagon images

I felt the most appropriate logo design could be 5 Heart images.

 

[anorlunda]

If you're modernizing it, why 5? Wikipedia says this:

Generally identified by convention rather than any strict criteria, up to seven geographical regions are commonly regarded as continents. Ordered from largest in area to smallest, these seven regions are: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Australia.

 

[akerkarprashant]

Thanks.

7 Heart images.

In that case we can search for 7 Heart images in Google search engine.

Every continent signifies a continent.
Asia,Africa,North America, South America,Antartica, Europe & Australia.

The number of continents representing in the Olympic games will give us the count.

 

[akerkarprashant]

Thanks.

"Love" is Universal.

Husband-Wife
Parents-Children
Grandparent-Children
Sibling-Sibling
Friends-Friends
Employer-Employee
Continent-Continent
Countries-Countries

I am adding one more relationship which I missed.

Teacher-Disciple.

 

[jedishrfu]

but you should remove Employer / Employee

Thanks.

That's (logo) because of social distancing to be kept due to COVID-19.
