• Abstract summary: We train a rewriting model that modifies specified spans of text within the user's original draft to introduce descriptive and figurative elements locally in the text. We evaluate the model on its ability to collaborate with humans on the task of creative image captioning.

• Abstract: Machine-in-the-loop writing aims to enable humans to collaborate with models to complete their writing tasks more effectively. Prior work has found that providing humans a machine-written draft or sentence-level continuations has limited success since the generated text tends to deviate from humans' intention. To allow the user to retain control over the content, we train a rewriting model that, when prompted, modifies specified spans of text within the user's original draft to introduce descriptive and figurative elements locally in the text. We evaluate the model on its ability to collaborate with humans on the task of creative image captioning. On a user study through Amazon Mechanical Turk, our model is rated to be more helpful than a baseline infilling language model. In addition, third-party evaluation shows that users write more descriptive and figurative captions when collaborating with our model compared to completing the task alone.

  Text-to-image models can portray the same subject across diverse prompts. Existing approaches fine-tune the model to teach it new words that describe specific user-provided subjects. We present ConsiStory, a training-free approach that enables consistent subject generation by sharing the internal activations of the pretrained model.

  It is desirable for language models to produce text in an author-specific style on the basis of a potentially small writing sample. We propose to guide a language model to generate text in a target style using contrastively-trained representations that capture stylometric features.

  We present a latent diffusion-based method for styled text-to-text-content-image generation on word-level. Our proposed method is able to generate realistic word image samples from different writer styles. We show that the proposed model produces samples that are aesthetically pleasing, help boosting text recognition performance, and get similar writer retrieval score as real data.

• PART: Pre-trained Authorship Representation Transformer [64.78260098263489]
  Authors writing documents imprint identifying information within their texts: vocabulary, registry, punctuation, misspellings, or even emoji usage. Previous works use hand-crafted features or classification tasks to train their authorship models, leading to poor performance on out-of-domain authors. We propose a contrastively trained model fit to learn textbfauthorship embeddings instead of semantics.

  We show that recent advances in each modality, CLIP image representations and scaling of language models, do not consistently improve multimodal self-rationalization of tasks with multimodal inputs. Our findings call for a backbone modelling approach that can be built on to advance text generation from images and text beyond image captioning.

  We address the problem of generating diverse 3D human motions from textual descriptions. We propose TEMOS, a text-conditioned generative model leveraging variational autoencoder (VAE) training with human motion data. We show that TEMOS framework can produce both skeleton-based animations as in prior work, as well more expressive SMPL body motions.

  This paper addresses the task of generating fluent descriptions by training on a non-uniform combination of data sources. Large-scale datasets with noisy image-text pairs provide a sub-optimal source of supervision. We propose to leverage and separate semantics and descriptive style through the incorporation of a style token and keywords extracted through a retrieval component.

  Given a series of natural language captions, an agent must generate a sequence of images that correspond to the captions.

We present a number of improvements to prior modeling approaches, including the addition of a dual learning framework.
