• Abstract summary: We present a method to provide detailed explanation of detected misalignments between text-image pairs. We leverage large language models and visual grounding models to automatically construct a training set that holds plausible captions for a given image. We also publish a new human curated test set comprising ground-truth textual and visual misalignment annotations.

• Abstract: While existing image-text alignment models reach high quality binary assessments, they fall short of pinpointing the exact source of misalignment. In this paper, we present a method to provide detailed textual and visual explanation of detected misalignments between text-image pairs. We leverage large language models and visual grounding models to automatically construct a training set that holds plausible misaligned captions for a given image and corresponding textual explanations and visual indicators. We also publish a new human curated test set comprising ground-truth textual and visual misalignment annotations. Empirical results show that fine-tuning vision language models on our training set enables them to articulate misalignments and visually indicate them within images, outperforming strong baselines both on the binary alignment classification and the explanation generation tasks. Our method code and human curated test set are available at: https://mismatch-quest.github.io/

• Improving Cross-modal Alignment with Synthetic Pairs for Text-only Image Captioning [13.357749288588039]
  Previous works leverage the CLIP's cross-modal association ability for image captioning, relying solely on textual information under unsupervised settings. This paper proposes a novel method to address these issues by incorporating synthetic image-text pairs. A pre-trained text-to-image model is deployed to obtain images that correspond to textual data, and the pseudo features of generated images are optimized toward the real ones in the CLIP embedding space.

• Leveraging Unpaired Data for Vision-Language Generative Models via Cycle Consistency [47.3163261953469]
  Current vision-language generative models rely on expansive corpora of paired image-text data to attain optimal performance and generalization capabilities. We introduce ITIT: an innovative training paradigm grounded in the concept of cycle consistency which allows vision-language training on unpaired image and text data. ITIT is comprised of a joint image-text encoder with disjoint image and text decoders that enable bidirectional image-to-text and text-to-image generation in a single framework.

  Existing text-to-image diffusion models struggle to synthesize realistic images given dense captions. We propose DenseDiffusion, a training-free method that adapts a pre-trained text-to-image model to handle such dense captions. We achieve similar-quality visual results with models specifically trained with layout conditions.
