• Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models (T2I) use a latent representation of a text prompt to guide the image generation process. However, the process by which the encoder produces the text representation is unknown. We propose the Diffusion Lens, a method for analyzing the text encoder of T2I models by generating images from its intermediate representations. Using the Diffusion Lens, we perform an extensive analysis of two recent T2I models. Exploring compound prompts, we find that complex scenes describing multiple objects are composed progressively and more slowly compared to simple scenes; Exploring knowledge retrieval, we find that representation of uncommon concepts requires further computation compared to common concepts, and that knowledge retrieval is gradual across layers. Overall, our findings provide valuable insights into the text encoder component in T2I pipelines.

  We propose a novel framework called textbfLLM4GEN, which enhances the semantic understanding of text-to-image diffusion models. A specially designed Cross-Adapter Module (CAM) integrates the original text features of text-to-image models with LLM features. DensePrompts, which contains $7,000$ dense prompts, provides a comprehensive evaluation for the text-to-image generation task.

  Referring image segmentation aims to segment the target object referred by a natural language expression. We propose a Dual Multi-Modal Interaction (DMMI) Network, which contains two decoder branches. In the text-to-image decoder, text embedding is utilized to query the visual feature and localize the corresponding target. Meanwhile, the image-to-text decoder is implemented to reconstruct the erased entity-phrase conditioned on the visual feature.

  Text-to-image (T2I) research has grown explosively in the past year. One pain point persists: the text prompt engineering, and searching high-quality text prompts for customized results is more art than science. In this paper, we take "Text" out of a pre-trained T2I diffusion model, to reduce the burdensome prompt engineering efforts for users.
