• Abstract summary: Building on recent advances in image generation, we present a data-driven approach to rendering markup into images. The approach is based on diffusion models, which parameterize the distribution of data using a sequence of denoising operations. We conduct experiments on four markup datasets: mathematical formulas (La), table layouts (HTML), sheet music (LilyPond), and molecular images (SMILES)

• Abstract: Building on recent advances in image generation, we present a fully data-driven approach to rendering markup into images. The approach is based on diffusion models, which parameterize the distribution of data using a sequence of denoising operations on top of a Gaussian noise distribution. We view the diffusion denoising process as a sequential decision making process, and show that it exhibits compounding errors similar to exposure bias issues in imitation learning problems. To mitigate these issues, we adapt the scheduled sampling algorithm to diffusion training. We conduct experiments on four markup datasets: mathematical formulas (LaTeX), table layouts (HTML), sheet music (LilyPond), and molecular images (SMILES). These experiments each verify the effectiveness of the diffusion process and the use of scheduled sampling to fix generation issues. These results also show that the markup-to-image task presents a useful controlled compositional setting for diagnosing and analyzing generative image models.

  We introduce the Glauber Generative Model (GGM), a new class of discrete diffusion models. GGM deploys a Markov chain to denoise a sequence of noisy tokens to a sample from a joint distribution of discrete tokens. We show that it outperforms existing discrete diffusion models in language generation and image generation.

  We show that Stable Diffusion methods, as currently applied, do not respect requirements of retail photography. The usual practice of training the denoiser with a very noisy image leads to inconsistent generated images during inference. A network trained with centered retail product images with uniform backgrounds generates images with erratic backgrounds. Our procedure can interact well with other control-based methods to further enhance the controllability of diffusion-based methods.
