• Abstract summary: Box-it-to-Bind-it (B2B) is a training-free approach for improving spatial control and semantic accuracy in text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models. B2B targets three key challenges in T2I: catastrophic neglect, attribute binding, and layout guidance. B2B is designed as a compatible plug-and-play module for existing T2I models.

• Abstract: While latent diffusion models (LDMs) excel at creating imaginative images, they often lack precision in semantic fidelity and spatial control over where objects are generated. To address these deficiencies, we introduce the Box-it-to-Bind-it (B2B) module - a novel, training-free approach for improving spatial control and semantic accuracy in text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models. B2B targets three key challenges in T2I: catastrophic neglect, attribute binding, and layout guidance. The process encompasses two main steps: i) Object generation, which adjusts the latent encoding to guarantee object generation and directs it within specified bounding boxes, and ii) attribute binding, guaranteeing that generated objects adhere to their specified attributes in the prompt. B2B is designed as a compatible plug-and-play module for existing T2I models, markedly enhancing model performance in addressing the key challenges. We evaluate our technique using the established CompBench and TIFA score benchmarks, demonstrating significant performance improvements compared to existing methods. The source code will be made publicly available at https://github.com/nextaistudio/BoxIt2BindIt.

  Recent text-to-image diffusion models excel at generating high-resolution images from text but struggle with precise control over spatial composition and object counting. We propose a novel zero-shot L2I approach, BACON, which eliminates the need for additional modules or fine-tuning. We leverage pixel-to-pixel correlations in the self-attention feature maps to align cross-attention maps and combine three loss functions constrained by boundary attention to update latent features.

  Current diffusion models create images given a text prompt as input but struggle to correctly bind attributes mentioned in the text to the right objects in the image. We propose focused cross-attention (FCA) that controls the visual attention maps by syntactic constraints found in the input sentence. We show substantial improvements in T2I generation and especially its attribute-object binding on several datasets.

  We show that there exist directions in the commonly used token-level CLIP text embeddings that enable fine-grained subject-specific control of high-level attributes in text-to-image models. We introduce one efficient optimization-free and one robust optimization-based method to identify these directions for specific attributes from contrastive text prompts.

  A layout to image (L2I) generation model aims to generate a complicated image containing multiple objects (things) against natural background (stuff) Existing L2I models have made great progress, but object-to-object and object-to-stuff relations are often broken. We argue that these are caused by the lack of context-aware object and stuff feature encoding in their generators, and location-sensitive appearance representation in their discriminators.
