arXiv:2606. 09855v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Korean folk painting (minhwa) is built from a small vocabulary of auspicious symbols, a tiger for protection, a pair of birds for marital harmony, a peony for wealth, that recur across many of its painted genres.
arXiv:2607. 04147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated fine-grained perception of calligraphy styles--a task vital to cultural heritage preservation--remains a critical challenge for Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), largely constrained by existing datasets that suffer from modal mixture and flattened labels.
arXiv:2608. 14435v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Frozen image embeddings from models such as CLIP are increasingly used to classify paintings by art-historical style, with high reported accuracy.
arXiv:2609.21012v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artistic style classification is usually studied on complete artworks, where models can exploit global composition, spatial organisation, and iconogr...

arXiv:2607. 18695v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A popular route to interpretable zero-shot classification asks a large language model (LLM) to describe each class name and prompts CLIP with the resulting descriptors.
Artistic image synthesis aims to recreate the expressive visual identity of a target artist, yet existing methods often fail to capture an artist's global style. Conventional style transfer methods transfer the style of one or a few reference artworks to a content image in a One-to-One manner, making them effective for artwork-level stylization but limited in representing the broader stylistic distribution of an artist.
The paper introduces Auto-Comp, a fully automated, concept-driven pipeline that generates photorealistic compositional benchmarks for vision‑language models. Auto‑Comp creates paired Minimal and Contextual samples for each concept, enabling isolation of core binding abilities from visio‑linguistic complexity. Evaluations across 25 models reveal consistent failures in attribute and relational binding, with context helping relational tasks but hindering attribute tasks due to visual clutter.
MemeLens is a unified multilingual, multitask Vision‑Language Model designed to improve meme understanding across a wide range of tasks such as hate, misogyny, propaganda, sentiment, and humour. The authors consolidated 38 public meme datasets, mapping their labels into a shared taxonomy of 20 tasks covering harm, targets, figurative intent, and affect, and conducted extensive experiments to show that multimodal training and a unified approach outperform fine‑tuning on individual datasets. All experimental resources, the model, and the datasets are released publicly for community use.
arXiv:2608. 11452v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-to-image (T2I) models are increasingly asked to illustrate literary and cultural content, yet we cannot measure how well an image renders the meaning of a poem.
arXiv:2608. 02486v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-source LLMs reliably name Zeus, Jupiter, and Thor, but recover their counterparts in less-represented traditions like Finnish, Slavic, Egyptian, or Chinese mythology far less consistently.
arXiv:2605. 00273v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models achieve impressive visual fidelity, yet they remain unreliable in multi-object generation.
