• Abstract summary: We introduce a novel dataset comprising 10,168 generated images, each annotated with per-pixel perceptual artifact labels. A segmentation model, trained on our proposed dataset, effectively localizes artifacts across a range of tasks. We propose an innovative zoom-in inpainting pipeline that seamlessly rectifies perceptual artifacts in the generated images.

• Abstract: Recent advancements in deep generative models have facilitated the creation of photo-realistic images across various tasks. However, these generated images often exhibit perceptual artifacts in specific regions, necessitating manual correction. In this study, we present a comprehensive empirical examination of Perceptual Artifacts Localization (PAL) spanning diverse image synthesis endeavors. We introduce a novel dataset comprising 10,168 generated images, each annotated with per-pixel perceptual artifact labels across ten synthesis tasks. A segmentation model, trained on our proposed dataset, effectively localizes artifacts across a range of tasks. Additionally, we illustrate its proficiency in adapting to previously unseen models using minimal training samples. We further propose an innovative zoom-in inpainting pipeline that seamlessly rectifies perceptual artifacts in the generated images. Through our experimental analyses, we elucidate several practical downstream applications, such as automated artifact rectification, non-referential image quality evaluation, and abnormal region detection in images. The dataset and code are released.

  generative models can synthesize "views" of artificial images that mimic real-world variations, such as changes in color or pose. Here, we investigate whether such views can be applied to real images to benefit downstream analysis tasks such as image classification. We use StyleGAN2 as the source of generative augmentations and investigate this setup on classification tasks involving facial attributes, cat faces, and cars.
