• Abstract summary: We propose a novel method called ArtAug for enhancing text-to-image models. In the interactions, we leverage human preferences implicitly learned by image understanding models to provide fine-grained suggestions. The enhancements brought by the interaction are iteratively fused into the synthesis model itself through an additional enhancement module. Various evaluation metrics consistently demonstrate that ArtAug enhances the generative capabilities of text-to-image models without incurring additional computational costs.

• Abstract: The emergence of diffusion models has significantly advanced image synthesis. The recent studies of model interaction and self-corrective reasoning approach in large language models offer new insights for enhancing text-to-image models. Inspired by these studies, we propose a novel method called ArtAug for enhancing text-to-image models in this paper. To the best of our knowledge, ArtAug is the first one that improves image synthesis models via model interactions with understanding models. In the interactions, we leverage human preferences implicitly learned by image understanding models to provide fine-grained suggestions for image synthesis models. The interactions can modify the image content to make it aesthetically pleasing, such as adjusting exposure, changing shooting angles, and adding atmospheric effects. The enhancements brought by the interaction are iteratively fused into the synthesis model itself through an additional enhancement module. This enables the synthesis model to directly produce aesthetically pleasing images without any extra computational cost. In the experiments, we train the ArtAug enhancement module on existing text-to-image models. Various evaluation metrics consistently demonstrate that ArtAug enhances the generative capabilities of text-to-image models without incurring additional computational costs. The source code and models will be released publicly.

  We introduce DIFfusionHOI, a new HOI detector shedding light on text-to-image diffusion models. We first devise an inversion-based strategy to learn the expression of relation patterns between humans and objects in embedding space. These learned relation embeddings then serve as textual prompts, to steer diffusion models generate images that depict specific interactions.

  Two models, DALL-E 2 and Imagen, have demonstrated that highly photorealistic images could be generated from a simple textual description of an image. Text-to-image models require exceptionally large amounts of computational resources to train, as well as handling huge datasets collected from the internet. This thesis contributes by reviewing the different approaches and techniques used by these models, and then by proposing our own implementation of a text-to-image model.
