Prior work on aesthetic composition typically produces a single aesthetically pleasing crop, overlooking the narrative value of composing multiple shots from one scene. In practice, multi-shot composition is critical for downstream creative workflows: commercial posters often require multiple crops with different emphases (e.
arXiv:2608. 07570v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Explainable aesthetic image cropping requires not only localizing a visually pleasing crop but also explaining why it is preferred.
arXiv:2607. 06481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present PACR-Video, a parameter-efficient framework for multi-shot long video extrapolation that preserves recurring entities, scene structure, visual style, and causal progression without full generator fine-tuning.
This paper presents an overview of the inaugural PortraitCraft Challenge, held as one of the official competitions at CVPR 2026. The challenge focuses on portrait composition understanding and generation, aiming to advance AI research in portrait aesthetics analysis and controllable image synthesis.
arXiv:2607. 00374v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) retrieves a target image from a reference image and a textual modification.
arXiv:2512. 12675v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Subject-driven image generation has advanced from single- to multi-subject composition, while neglecting distinction, the ability to distinguish and generate the correct subject when inputs contain multiple candidates.
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.
Adapting CLIP for zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR) via prompt learning faces a fundamental tension: the model must bridge the sketch-photo domain gap through task-specific adaptation, yet the added flexibility risks overfitting to seen training categories and eroding CLIP's zero-shot generalization. We present SeCo-SBIR, a semantically consistent prompt learning framework that resolves this tension from both sides.
arXiv:2606. 20799v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating visually consistent multi-shot videos remains an open challenge.
arXiv:2606. 24636v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cinematographic captioning aims to describe how a video is filmed using professional film-language concepts such as camera movement, shot size, depth of field, composition, and shooting angle.
arXiv:2507. 17853v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in text-to-image (T2I) generation have led to impressive visual results.
Zero-shot composed image retrieval (ZS-CIR) aims to retrieve a target image from a multimodal query consisting of a reference image and an edit text describing the desired modification. Recent ZS-CIR studies have relied on projection-based methods that map a reference image into pseudo-word tokens in the text embedding space.
arXiv:2607. 00684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The classification accuracy of pretrained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) relies on the quality of the text prompts.
