The medical datasets are usually faced with the problem of scarcity and data imbalance. Moreover, annotating large datasets for semantic segmentation of medical lesions is domain-knowledge and time-consuming. In this paper, we propose a new object-blend method(short in soft-CP) that combines the Copy-Paste augmentation method for semantic segmentation of medical lesions offline, ensuring the correct edge information around the lession to solve the issue above-mentioned. We proved the method's validity with several datasets in different imaging modalities. In our experiments on the KiTS19[2] dataset, Soft-CP outperforms existing medical lesions synthesis approaches. The Soft-CP augementation provides gains of +26.5% DSC in the low data regime(10% of data) and +10.2% DSC in the high data regime(all of data), In offline training data, the ratio of real images to synthetic images is 3:1.

Generative AI (GenAI) is transforming filmmaking, equipping artists with tools like text-to-image and image-to-video diffusion, neural radiance fields, avatar generation, and 3D synthesis. This paper examines the adoption of these technologies in filmmaking, analyzing workflows from recent AI-driven films to understand how GenAI contributes to character creation, aesthetic styling, and narration. We explore key strategies for maintaining character consistency, achieving stylistic coherence, and ensuring motion continuity. Additionally, we highlight emerging trends such as the growing use of 3D generation and the integration of real footage with AI-generated elements. Beyond technical advancements, we examine how GenAI is enabling new artistic expressions, from generating hard-to-shoot footage to dreamlike diffusion-based morphing effects, abstract visuals, and unworldly objects. We also gather artists' feedback on challenges and desired improvements, including consistency, controllability, fine-grained editing, and motion refinement. Our study provides insights into the evolving intersection of AI and filmmaking, offering a roadmap for researchers and artists navigating this rapidly expanding field.
