• Abstract summary: This paper proposes a Gradual Refinement Generative Adversarial Network (GR-GAN) to alleviate the problem efficiently. A GRG module is designed to generate images from low resolution to high resolution with the corresponding text constraints. A ITM module is designed to provide image-text matching losses at both sentence-image level and word-region level.

• Abstract: A good Text-to-Image model should not only generate high quality images, but also ensure the consistency between the text and the generated image. Previous models failed to simultaneously fix both sides well. This paper proposes a Gradual Refinement Generative Adversarial Network (GR-GAN) to alleviates the problem efficiently. A GRG module is designed to generate images from low resolution to high resolution with the corresponding text constraints from coarse granularity (sentence) to fine granularity (word) stage by stage, a ITM module is designed to provide image-text matching losses at both sentence-image level and word-region level for corresponding stages. We also introduce a new metric Cross-Model Distance (CMD) for simultaneously evaluating image quality and image-text consistency. Experimental results show GR-GAN significant outperform previous models, and achieve new state-of-the-art on both FID and CMD. A detailed analysis demonstrates the efficiency of different generation stages in GR-GAN.

  In-image machine translation (IIMT) aims to translate an image containing texts in source language into an image containing translations in target language. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end IIMT model consisting of four modules. Our model achieves competitive performance compared to cascaded models with only 70.9% of parameters, and significantly outperforms the pixel-level end-to-end IIMT model.

  We introduce G-Refine, a general image quality refiner designed to enhance low-quality images without compromising integrity of high-quality ones. The model is composed of three interconnected modules: a perception quality indicator, an alignment quality indicator, and a general quality enhancement module. Extensive experimentation reveals that AIGIs after G-Refine outperform in 10+ quality metrics across 4 databases.

  We propose a two-stage coarse-to-fine semantic re-alignment method, named RealignDiff. In the coarse semantic re-alignment phase, a novel caption reward is proposed to evaluate the semantic discrepancy between the generated image caption and the given text prompt. The fine semantic re-alignment stage employs a local dense caption generation module and a re-weighting attention modulation module to refine the previously generated images from a local semantic view.

Second, we embed the representation of semantic increment into that of source image for generating target image, where source image plays the role of referring auxiliary.

In the text-guided optimization module, we generate images with the desired semantic attributes by optimizing the inverted latent codes.
