• Abstract: Have you ever looked at a painting and wondered what is the story behind it? This work presents a framework to bring art closer to people by generating comprehensive descriptions of fine-art paintings. Generating informative descriptions for artworks, however, is extremely challenging, as it requires to 1) describe multiple aspects of the image such as its style, content, or composition, and 2) provide background and contextual knowledge about the artist, their influences, or the historical period. To address these challenges, we introduce a multi-topic and knowledgeable art description framework, which modules the generated sentences according to three artistic topics and, additionally, enhances each description with external knowledge. The framework is validated through an exhaustive analysis, both quantitative and qualitative, as well as a comparative human evaluation, demonstrating outstanding results in terms of both topic diversity and information veracity.

  We introduce a dual-branch and training-free method, namely VitaGlyph, to enable flexible artistic typography. VitaGlyph treats input character as a scene composed of Subject and Surrounding, followed by rendering them under varying degrees of geometry transformation. Experimental results demonstrate that VitaGlyph not only achieves better artistry and readability, but also manages to depict multiple customize concepts.

  We present KALE Knowledge-Augmented vision-Language model for artwork Elaborations. KALE incorporates the metadata in two ways: firstly as direct textual input, and secondly through a multimodal heterogeneous knowledge graph. Experimental results demonstrate that KALE achieves strong performance over existing state-of-the-art work across several artwork datasets.

  Artwork analysis is important and fundamental skill for art appreciation, which could enrich personal aesthetic sensibility and facilitate the critical thinking ability. Previous works for automatically analyzing artworks mainly focus on classification, retrieval, and other simple tasks, which is far from the goal of AI. We introduce a superior large multimodal model for painting analysis composing, dubbed GalleryGPT, which is slightly modified and fine-tuned based on LLaVA architecture.

  We present Impressions, a novel dataset through which to investigate the semiotics of images. We show that existing multimodal image captioning and conditional generation models struggle to simulate plausible human responses to images. This dataset significantly improves their ability to model impressions and aesthetic evaluations of images through fine-tuning and few-shot adaptation.

We characterise the sentimentality, objectiveness and degree of abstraction of publicly available text data used to train current text-to-image diffusion models.

  We identify hidden patterns and relationships present in artistic paintings by analysing their complexity. We apply Normalized Compression (NC) and the Block Decomposition Method (BDM) to a dataset of 4,266 paintings from 91 authors. We define a fingerprint that describes critical information regarding the artists' style, their artistic influences, and shared techniques.

  Image compositions are useful in analyzing the interactions in an image to study artists and their artworks. In this work, we attempt to automate this process using the existing state of the art machine learning techniques. Our approach focuses on two central themes of image composition: (a) detection of action regions and action lines of the artwork; and (b) pose-based segmentation of foreground and background.
