Increasing the Utility of Synthetic Images through Chamfer Guidance
Nicola Dall'Asen, Xiaofeng Zhang, Reyhane Askari Hemmat +4
Conditional image generative models hold considerable promise to produce infinite amounts of synthetic training data. Yet, recent progress in generation quality has come at the exp…
DIMCIM: A Quantitative Evaluation Framework for Default-mode Diversity and Generalization in Text-to-Image Generative Models
Revant Teotia, Candace Ross, Karen Ullrich +4
Recent advances in text-to-image (T2I) models have achieved impressive quality and consistency. However, this has come at the cost of representation diversity. While automatic eval…
Multimodal Language Models as Text-to-Image Model Evaluators
Jiahui Chen, Candace Ross, Reyhane Askari-Hemmat +5
The steady improvements of text-to-image (T2I) generative models lead to slow deprecation of automatic evaluation benchmarks that rely on static datasets, motivating researchers to…
Improving the Scaling Laws of Synthetic Data with Deliberate Practice
Reyhane Askari-Hemmat, Mohammad Pezeshki, Elvis Dohmatob +6
Inspired by the principle of deliberate practice in human learning, we propose Deliberate Practice for Synthetic Data Generation (DP), a novel framework that improves sample effici…
What makes a good metric? Evaluating automatic metrics for text-to-image consistency
