Recently, large language models (LLMs) have achieved promising progress in the fields of classical Chinese translation and the generation of classical poetry. However, domain-specific research on precise translation and affective-semantic understanding of classical poetry remains limited.
Neo-Classic is a new benchmark designed to evaluate linguistic‑aesthetic reasoning in Classical Chinese poetry. It uses an out‑of‑sample dataset of strictly metrical poems written by contemporary experts and a set of reverse‑understanding probes, avoiding reliance on historical corpora. Experiments with leading LLMs show a 20–50% performance drop on contemporary texts and low accuracy (0–13%) on discourse‑level ordering, indicating that current models excel at local patterns but struggle with global hierarchical planning.

The paper introduces Peony, a benchmark designed to evaluate large language models’ ability to comprehend the ‘poetic logic’ of modern Chinese poetry. It defines this logic through four tasks across stanza, line, and imagery levels and tests six mainstream LLMs under both non‑thinking and thinking configurations. Results show current LLMs struggle with this literary reasoning, highlighting Peony’s role in revealing these limitations.
CompArt introduces a new approach to aesthetic alignment in text-to-image generation by using the Principles of Art (PoA) such as Balance, Rhythm, and Emphasis to define explicit compositional constraints. The authors create a large dataset of 80,032 WikiArt images, each annotated with PoA analyses generated by a multimodal LLM, and present ArtDapter, a lightweight adapter that steers a pretrained diffusion model along ten PoA dimensions while preserving semantic fidelity. Experiments demonstrate that CompArt outperforms strong baselines in adhering to PoA controls under a dual evaluation protocol.
The paper introduces VMetaphor-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating visual metaphor generation in text-to-image models, comprising 1,500 curated metaphors across three levels and ten categories, each paired with two prompts of varying specificity. It proposes a hybrid evaluation framework using a multiple-choice question protocol and dimension-based scoring to assess metaphorical fidelity. Experiments on 11 T2I models show that even top proprietary models struggle with compositional structuring and cross-domain mapping, underscoring the need for further research in this area.
Multimodal Language Models as Text-to-Image Model Evaluators presents MT2IE, a framework where a multimodal large language model generates evaluation prompts and scores images, achieving higher correlation with human judgment than prior metrics. MT2IE recovers official T2I model rankings using only 20 prompts—far fewer than traditional benchmarks—and adapts prompts to each model’s performance, maintaining informative scoring ranges. The approach demonstrates that dynamic, interactive evaluation can replace static benchmarks as T2I models improve.

The paper introduces VMetaphor-Bench, a benchmark for assessing visual metaphor generation in text-to-image models. It contains 1,500 curated metaphors across three levels and ten categories, each paired with two prompts of varying specificity. The authors evaluate 11 T2I models using a hybrid MLLM-as-judge framework that combines a large multiple-choice question set with dimension-based scoring, finding that even top proprietary models struggle with compositional structuring and cross-domain mapping.
