Draw This First

arXiv:2608. 12064v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We invert the typical formulation of sketch generation: instead of drawing strokes in order, we predict a 2D field that defines the order in which strokes are drawn.

IV-CoT: Implicit Visual Chain-of-Thought for Structure-Aware Text-to-Image Generation

arXiv:2606. 24849v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unified multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved strong text-to-image generation quality, but still struggle with structure-aware prompt following, where object counts, spatial relations, attribute bindings, and coarse layouts must be preserved.

IV-CoT: Implicit Visual Chain-of-Thought for Structure-Aware Text-to-Image Generation

Unified multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved strong text-to-image generation quality, but still struggle with structure-aware prompt following, where object counts, spatial relations, attribute bindings, and coarse layouts must be preserved. We attribute this limitation in part to the entanglement of structural planning and appearance rendering within a single conditioning stream.

SI-Edit: Toward Sketch-Instruction Guided Local Image Editing with Pixel-Level Precision

Despite rapid advances in generative models, achieving pixel-level precision in sketch-based image editing remains a persistent challenge, particularly for fine-grained local deformations. This gap stems primarily from the critical shortage of high-quality, publicly available benchmark datasets that jointly provide geometric constraints and semantic instructions.

Drawing-Recode: Annotation Grounding for Parametric CAD Code Generation from Raster 2D CAD Drawings

Recovering Parametric CAD sequences from raster-format 2D Computer-Aided Design (CAD) drawings accumulated prior to digital transformation is important for part reproduction and manufacturing process automation. However, existing studies either process only vector drawings or are limited to specific domains, and fail to explicitly connect dimensional annotations to geometric information, limiting their use of dimensional information for 3D Parametric CAD sequences recovery.

LASA: A Weak Supervision Method for Open-Vocabulary Scene Sketch Semantic Segmentation

arXiv:2606. 11837v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-vocabulary scene sketch semantic segmentation aims to assign dense semantic labels to sparse line drawings based on flexible category vocabularies specified at inference time, without relying on pixel-level annotations during training.

Channel-wise Vector Quantization

arXiv:2605. 26089v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Channel-wise Vector Quantization (CVQ), a novel image tokenization paradigm that replaces patch-wise tokens with channel-wise tokens.

Human-Aligned Procedural Level Generation Reinforcement Learning via Text-Level-Sketch Shared Representation

arXiv:2508. 09860v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Human-aligned AI is a critical component of co-creativity, as it enables models to accurately interpret human intent and generate controllable outputs that align with design goals in collaborative content creation.

Spanning Tree Autoregressive Visual Generation

arXiv:2511. 17089v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Spanning Tree Autoregressive (STAR) modeling, which can incorporate prior knowledge of images, such as center bias and locality, to maintain sampling performance while also providing sufficiently flexible sequence orders to accommodate image editing at inference time.
