arXiv:2606. 00583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent diffusion transformers have demonstrated strong image synthesis capabilities but remain inefficient to train due to weak alignment between generative and discriminative representations.

arXiv:2606. 16799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing vision-language model (VLM)-based AI-generated image quality assessment (AIGIQA) methods suffer from a fundamental semantic-distortion dimensional conflict: monolithic representations optimized for semantic discrimination inherently entangle compositional understanding with low-level perceptual sensitivity, rendering them blind to fine-grained quality degradations.

arXiv:2606. 26171v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent image generation models achieve impressive quality in single-image synthesis, but often fail to maintain consistency across sequential outputs, as required in comics, storyboards, and visual narratives.

Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has been shown to have limitations in its fine-grained dense feature representation, due to its pre-training focusing on matching the whole image to a text description. Considering the large data and computational burden in pre-training a vision-language model from scratch, a series of works aim to enhance the fine-grained ability of CLIP through a fine-tuning scheme.
arXiv:2505. 16915v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While recent Text-to-Image (T2I) models show impressive capabilities in synthesizing images from brief descriptions, they struggle with the long, detailed prompts required for professional applications.

arXiv:2508. 12466v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional multimodal learning approaches rely on alignment pre-training to bridge vision and language modalities, typically by projecting visual features into discrete text token spaces using large-scale image--text data.

arXiv:2607. 26735v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt inversion, as a typical reverse engineering technique, enables text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models to generate the desired target images without extensive prompt engineering.
