• Abstract summary: TediGAN is a framework for multi-modal image generation and manipulation with textual descriptions. StyleGAN inversion module maps real images to the latent space of a well-trained StyleGAN. visual-linguistic similarity learns the text-image matching by mapping the image and text into a common embedding space. instance-level optimization is for identity preservation in manipulation.

• Abstract: In this work, we propose TediGAN, a novel framework for multi-modal image generation and manipulation with textual descriptions. The proposed method consists of three components: StyleGAN inversion module, visual-linguistic similarity learning, and instance-level optimization. The inversion module maps real images to the latent space of a well-trained StyleGAN. The visual-linguistic similarity learns the text-image matching by mapping the image and text into a common embedding space. The instance-level optimization is for identity preservation in manipulation. Our model can produce diverse and high-quality images with an unprecedented resolution at 1024. Using a control mechanism based on style-mixing, our TediGAN inherently supports image synthesis with multi-modal inputs, such as sketches or semantic labels, with or without instance guidance. To facilitate text-guided multi-modal synthesis, we propose the Multi-Modal CelebA-HQ, a large-scale dataset consisting of real face images and corresponding semantic segmentation map, sketch, and textual descriptions. Extensive experiments on the introduced dataset demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed method. Code and data are available at https://github.com/weihaox/TediGAN.

  We propose a novel Hierarchical Graph Alignment Network (HGAN) for image-text retrieval. First, to capture the comprehensive multimodal features, we construct the feature graphs for the image and text modality respectively. Then, a multi-granularity shared space is established with a designed Multi-granularity Feature Aggregation and Rearrangement (MFAR) module. Finally, the ultimate image and text features are further refined through three-level similarity functions to achieve the hierarchical alignment.

  We propose a new framework for conditional image synthesis from semantic layouts of any precision levels. The framework naturally reduces to text-to-image (T2I) at the lowest level with no shape information, and it becomes segmentation-to-image (S2I) at the highest level. We introduce several novel techniques to address the challenges coming with this new setup.

• Learning to Model Multimodal Semantic Alignment for Story Visualization [58.16484259508973]
  Story visualization aims to generate a sequence of images to narrate each sentence in a multi-sentence story. Current works face the problem of semantic misalignment because of their fixed architecture and diversity of input modalities. We explore the semantic alignment between text and image representations by learning to match their semantic levels in the GAN-based generative model.

We conduct experiments on FFHQ and LSUN datasets, and show results on fine-grained text-guided image synthesis.

  We propose a novel unified framework of Cycle-consistent Inverse GAN for both text-to-image generation and text-guided image manipulation tasks. We learn a GAN inversion model to convert the images back to the GAN latent space and obtain the inverted latent codes for each image. In the text-guided optimization module, we generate images with the desired semantic attributes by optimizing the inverted latent codes.

  We devise a generic unsupervised technique to learn multimodal affinities between textual entities in a document-image. We then use these learned affinities to automatically cluster the textual entities in the image into different semantic groups. We show that our technique can operate on highly varying images spanning a wide range of documents and demonstrate its applicability for various editing operations.
