• Title: Commonsense-T2I Challenge: Can Text-to-Image Generation Models Understand Commonsense?
• Authors: Xingyu Fu, Muyu He, Yujie Lu, William Yang Wang, Dan Roth,
• Abstract summary: We present a novel task and benchmark for evaluating the ability of text-to-image generation models to produce images that align with commonsense in real life. We evaluate whether T2I models can conduct visual-commonsense reasoning, e.g. produce images that fit "the lightbulb is unlit" vs. "the lightbulb is lit" We benchmark a variety of state-of-the-art (sota) T2I models and surprisingly find that, there is still a large gap between image synthesis and real life photos.

• Abstract: We present a novel task and benchmark for evaluating the ability of text-to-image(T2I) generation models to produce images that align with commonsense in real life, which we call Commonsense-T2I. Given two adversarial text prompts containing an identical set of action words with minor differences, such as "a lightbulb without electricity" v.s. "a lightbulb with electricity", we evaluate whether T2I models can conduct visual-commonsense reasoning, e.g. produce images that fit "the lightbulb is unlit" vs. "the lightbulb is lit" correspondingly. Commonsense-T2I presents an adversarial challenge, providing pairwise text prompts along with expected outputs. The dataset is carefully hand-curated by experts and annotated with fine-grained labels, such as commonsense type and likelihood of the expected outputs, to assist analyzing model behavior. We benchmark a variety of state-of-the-art (sota) T2I models and surprisingly find that, there is still a large gap between image synthesis and real life photos--even the DALL-E 3 model could only achieve 48.92% on Commonsense-T2I, and the stable diffusion XL model only achieves 24.92% accuracy. Our experiments show that GPT-enriched prompts cannot solve this challenge, and we include a detailed analysis about possible reasons for such deficiency. We aim for Commonsense-T2I to serve as a high-quality evaluation benchmark for T2I commonsense checking, fostering advancements in real life image generation.

  We introduce a new metric called Visual Language Evaluation Understudy (VLEU) VLEU quantifies a model's generalizability by computing the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the marginal distribution of the visual text and the conditional distribution of the images generated by the model. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of VLEU in evaluating the generalization capability of various T2I models.

  We introduce T2IScoreScore, a curated set of semantic error graphs containing a prompt and a set of increasingly erroneous images. These allow us to rigorously judge whether a given prompt faithfulness metric can correctly order images with respect to their objective error count. We find that the state-of-the-art VLM-based metrics fail to significantly outperform simple (and supposedly worse) feature-based metrics like CLIPScore.

  SELMA improves the faithfulness of T2I models by fine-tuning models on automatically generated, multi-skill image-text datasets. We show that SELMA significantly improves the semantic alignment and text faithfulness of state-of-the-art T2I diffusion models on multiple benchmarks. We also show that fine-tuning with image-text pairs auto-collected via SELMA shows comparable performance to fine-tuning with ground truth data.

  A prevalent limitation persists in the effective communication with T2I models, such as Stable Diffusion, using natural language descriptions. Inspired by the recently released DALLE3, we revisit the existing T2I systems endeavoring to align human intent and introduce a new task - interactive text to image (iT2I) We present a simple approach that augments LLMs for iT2I with prompting techniques and off-the-shelf T2I models.

  diffusion-based text-to-image (T2I) models can lack faithfulness to the text prompt. We show that large T2I diffusion models are more faithful than usually assumed, and can generate images faithful to even complex prompts. We introduce a pipeline that generates candidate images for a text prompt and picks the best one according to an automatic scoring system.
