II. Implementation for AI Models
A. Analysis Prompt Structure
Examine this visual content through three interacting perspectives:
1. Visual Structure:
- What are the key compositional elements?
- How do technical aspects affect perception?
- What quality characteristics are notable?
2. Semantic Content:
- What objects and relationships are present?
- What actions or states are depicted?
- What narrative elements emerge?
3. Contextual Meaning:
- How does cultural context inform interpretation?
- What is the intended function or purpose?
- What technical constraints are relevant?
For each observation:
- Note how it relates to other perspectives
- Identify dependencies and influences
- Track how understanding evolves
B. Generation Prompt Structure
Generate visual content that integrates:
1. Technical Requirements:
- Specify compositional structure
- Define technical parameters
- Establish quality criteria
2. Semantic Goals:
- Describe key elements and relationships
- Define actions and states
- Outline narrative components
3. Contextual Framework:
- Indicate cultural references
- Clarify functional purpose
- Note technical constraints
Ensure coherence between:
- Structure and meaning
- Function and form
- Context and content

Example Analysis Application Using LLM
Trialogue approach can enhance visual content analysis and generation.
Based on this analysis, here's a refined, practical prompt for visual content analysis and generation:
"Analyze this visual content in three connected ways: First, examine its technical structure (composition, colors, lighting, quality). Second, identify what it shows (objects, actions, relationships, story). Third, consider its purpose and context (intended use, cultural meaning, technical requirements).
As you analyze each aspect, explain how it relates to and influences the others. For example, how does the technical composition support the story? How do cultural factors influence the visual choices?
Conclude by explaining how these different aspects work together to achieve the content's purpose. What makes the whole more effective than just the sum of its parts?"
This approach:
- Maintains trialogue principles while being visually specific
- Forces integration between technical and semantic aspects
- Ensures context informs both analysis and generation
- Keeps the process practical and actionable
The key is maintaining dynamic interaction between technical, semantic, and contextual aspects while keeping the process practical for AI implementation.
