• Abstract: Personalized image generation via text prompts has great potential to improve daily life and professional work by facilitating the creation of customized visual content. The aim of image personalization is to create images based on a user-provided subject while maintaining both consistency of the subject and flexibility to accommodate various textual descriptions of that subject. However, current methods face challenges in ensuring fidelity to the text prompt while not overfitting to the training data. In this work, we introduce a novel training pipeline that incorporates an attractor to filter out distractions in training images, allowing the model to focus on learning an effective representation of the personalized subject. Moreover, current evaluation methods struggle due to the lack of a dedicated test set. The evaluation set-up typically relies on the training data of the personalization task to compute text-image and image-image similarity scores, which, while useful, tend to overestimate performance. Although human evaluations are commonly used as an alternative, they often suffer from bias and inconsistency. To address these issues, we curate a diverse and high-quality test set with well-designed prompts. With this new benchmark, automatic evaluation metrics can reliably assess model performance

  We focus on text-to-image systems that input a single image of an individual and ground the generation process along with text describing the desired visual context. We introduce a standardized dataset (Stellar) that contains personalized prompts coupled with images of individuals that is an order of magnitude larger than existing relevant datasets and where rich semantic ground-truth annotations are readily available. We derive a simple yet efficient, personalized text-to-image baseline that does not require test-time fine-tuning for each subject and which sets quantitatively and in human trials a new SoTA.
