• Abstract summary: We reveal the potential causes in the diffusion model's cross-attention and self-attention layers. We propose two novel losses to refocus attention maps according to a given spatial layout during sampling. We show that our proposed attention refocusing effectively improves the controllability of existing approaches.

• Abstract: Driven by the scalable diffusion models trained on large-scale datasets, text-to-image synthesis methods have shown compelling results. However, these models still fail to precisely follow the text prompt involving multiple objects, attributes, or spatial compositions. In this paper, we reveal the potential causes in the diffusion model's cross-attention and self-attention layers. We propose two novel losses to refocus attention maps according to a given spatial layout during sampling. Creating the layouts manually requires additional effort and can be tedious. Therefore, we explore using large language models (LLM) to produce these layouts for our method. We conduct extensive experiments on the DrawBench, HRS, and TIFA benchmarks to evaluate our proposed method. We show that our proposed attention refocusing effectively improves the controllability of existing approaches.

  Cross-attention layers in diffusion models tend to disproportionately focus on certain tokens during the generation process. We introduce attention regulation, an on-the-fly optimization approach at inference time to align attention maps with the input text prompt. Experiment results show that our method consistently outperforms other baselines.

  Current L2I models either suffer from poor editability via text or weak alignment between the generated image and the input layout. We propose to integrate adversarial supervision into the conventional training pipeline of L2I diffusion models (ALDM) Specifically, we employ a segmentation-based discriminator which provides explicit feedback to the diffusion generator on the pixel-level alignment between the denoised image and the input layout.
