Art Beyond Semantics: Sheaf-Informed Contrastive Learning for Multi-Relational Representations
Ludovica Schaerf, Antonio Purificato, Piera Riccio +2
Understanding a painting is never a single act. Art historians may analyze the same work through concepts of style, iconography, or historical context, dimensions that are not inte…
The Evolving Nature of Latent Spaces: From GANs to Diffusion
Ludovica Schaerf
This paper examines the evolving nature of internal representations in generative visual models, focusing on the conceptual and technical shift from GANs and VAEs to diffusion-base…
Training-Free Style and Content Transfer by Leveraging U-Net Skip Connections in Stable Diffusion
Ludovica Schaerf, Andrea Alfarano, Fabrizio Silvestri +1
Recent advances in diffusion models for image generation have led to detailed examinations of several components within the U-Net architecture for image editing. While previous stu…
Reflections on Disentanglement and the Latent Space
Ludovica Schaerf
The latent space of image generative models is a multi-dimensional space of compressed hidden visual knowledge. Its entity captivates computer scientists, digital artists, and medi…
Art Forgery Detection using Kolmogorov Arnold and Convolutional Neural Networks
Sandro Boccuzzo, Deborah Desirée Meyer, Ludovica Schaerf
Art authentication has historically established itself as a task requiring profound connoisseurship of one particular artist. Nevertheless, famous art forgers such as Wolfgang Belt…
ColorwAI: Generative Colorways of Textiles through GAN and Diffusion Disentanglement
Ludovica Schaerf, Andrea Alfarano, Eric Postma
Colorway creation is the task of generating textile samples in alternate color variations maintaining an underlying pattern. The individuation of a suitable color palette for a col…
Synthetic images aid the recognition of human-made art forgeries
Johann Ostmeyer, Ludovica Schaerf, Pavel Buividovich +3
Previous research has shown that Artificial Intelligence is capable of distinguishing between authentic paintings by a given artist and human-made forgeries with remarkable accurac…
Art Authentication with Vision Transformers
Ludovica Schaerf, Carina Popovici, Eric Postma
In recent years, Transformers, initially developed for language, have been successfully applied to visual tasks. Vision Transformers have been shown to push the state-of-the-art in…
AI Art Curation: Re-imagining the city of Helsinki in occasion of its Biennial
Ludovica Schaerf, Pepe Ballesteros, Valentine Bernasconi +2
Art curatorial practice is characterized by the presentation of an art collection in a knowledgeable way. Machine processes are characterized by their capacity to manage and analyz…
