arXiv:2608. 00089v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With rapid growth in the fields of empirical and computational aesthetics we have seen a vast increase in large image datasets annotated for aesthetics.
Traditional Image Aesthetic Assessment (IAA) methods mainly rely on regressing absolute Mean Opinion Scores (MOS). However, such a paradigm overlooks the inherently dynamic nature of human aesthetic perception, which relies on subconscious comparison against implicit visual references.
While Text-to-Image (T2I) models have shown remarkable success in generating photorealistic visual content, they still struggle with the rigorous semantic alignment and logical reasoning required for scientific imagery. Inspired by Peirce's Semiotic Triad, we introduce Scientific Image Reasoning (SciIR), a comprehensive resource for training and evaluation of scientific image generation.
arXiv:2512. 05098v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In recent years, Image Quality Assessment (IQA) for AI-generated images (AIGI) has advanced rapidly; however, existing methods primarily target portraits and artistic images, lacking a systematic evaluation of interior scenes.
arXiv:2606. 08841v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models are increasingly deployed in open-ended creative contexts, yet their outputs remain impersonal, optimized for aggregate aesthetics rather than individual taste.
arXiv:2601. 13591v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent LLM-based data agents aim to automate data science tasks ranging from data analysis to deep learning.
Recent text-to-image models such as DALLE-3 excel at following diverse prompts yet remain blind to individual aesthetic preferences. We study personalized image generation, where models must align outputs with a user's implicit visual preferences based on a few historically preferred images and a short prompt.
arXiv:2603. 24575v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) are essential for technical illustration and digital design, offering resolution independence and semantic editability.
We present S1-Omni-Image, an open-weight unified multimodal model for scientific image understanding, generation, and editing. Unlike general-purpose image generation models, scientific image tasks require not only high-fidelity synthesis, but also robust understanding of scientific semantics, structural relations, domain knowledge, and task intent.
arXiv:2512. 11982v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Finding scientifically interesting phenomena through slow manual labeling campaigns severely limits our ability to explore the billions of galaxy images produced by telescopes.
arXiv:2606. 29667v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The materials science literature encodes decades of experimental knowledge in figures, yet this visual record remains locked away and inaccessible to AI at scale.
arXiv:2606. 19103v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in instruction-based image editing have enabled models to perform complex visual edits from natural language instructions.
arXiv:2607. 06929v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Music aesthetic assessment is a challenging yet underexplored problem, requiring models to capture fine-grained, multi-dimensional human perceptual judgments.
