Abstract: As computer technology advances, people's capacity for visual perception grows better, and the demands placed on computerized layouts progressively rise. The simple style of graphics is no longer the only option for computer figure video creation; instead, there is a greater tendency to visually represent the effect and improve the aesthetics and expressiveness of visuals and images. Graphic language uses visual components, including shapes, colors, typographies, images, and icons, in a visual communication context to express messages, ideas, and emotions. Graphics language encounters greater chances and obstacles against the backdrop of this information era. Consequently, it is crucial to convert data into graphics language. Visual communication is evolving in some potential directions with the advancement of technological advances and cultural convergence. The graphic language has its distinct visual meaning, and each person's visual experience is extremely diverse and exists in life with various visual elements in different layouts. A hybridized Grid and Content-based Automatic Layout (HGC-AL) algorithm for graphic language in Visual Communication Design (VCD) has been developed to produce visually balanced layouts and establish a structured system for arranging content elements. The content-based layout uses design constraints for better alignment and avoids conflict loss. The hierarchical arrangement of graphic elements in a grid layout analyzes the types of visual elements like image, text, and color. Finally, graphic language enhances the visual score and gives flexibility by allowing changes and modifications within the grid layout. Following the design requirements change, the responsive fluid grid supports various graphical content, sizes, and alignments. Thus, compared with existing layout algorithms, the proposed algorithm is validated with metrics like Intersection of Union (IoU), alignment accuracy, content coverage ratio, visual score, scalability ratio, and overall layout quality.
