Simile Understanding in Text-to-Image Models: An Evaluation Framework

Luecheng Wang, Shintaro Ozaki, Hidetaka Kamigaito +4

Similes provide a compact and expressive way to describe visual characteristics in text prompts. Recent text-to-image models (t2i models) can produce visually compelling outputs fr…

Rewrite to Translate, Translate to Reward: Reinforcement Learning for Source Rewriting in Machine Translation

Boxuan Lyu, Haiyue Song, Zhi Qu +3

Prior work has explored prompting large language models (LLMs) to rewrite source text before translation, with the goal of improving machine translation (MT) quality. However, we f…

TextTIGER: Text-based Intelligent Generation with Entity Prompt Refinement for Text-to-Image Generation

Shintaro Ozaki, Tomoyuki Jinno, Kazuki Hayashi +6

When generating images from prompts that include specific entities, the model must retain as much entity-specific knowledge as possible. However, the number of entities is almost c…

From Formal Language Theory to Statistical Learning: Finite Observability of Subregular Languages

Katsuhiko Hayashi, Hidetaka Kamigaito

We prove that all standard subregular language classes are linearly separable when represented by their deciding predicates. This establishes finite observability and guarantees le…

Towards Artwork Explanation in Large-scale Vision Language Models

Kazuki Hayashi, Yusuke Sakai, Hidetaka Kamigaito +2

Large-scale Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) output text from images and instructions, demonstrating capabilities in text generation and comprehension. However, it has not been clari…
