The paper introduces the CO-AID dataset, which captures systematic defects in state‑of‑the‑art text‑to‑image models when prompts involve complex composition such as multiple entities and attributes. Researchers manually curated 651 reference images across people, hand, object, and scene categories, edited ChatGPT‑generated prompts to emphasize compositional factors, and generated AI images with three T2I models. A subjective study with 29 participants produced multi‑label defect annotations, enabling training of a deep model that predicts defects and improves image generation.
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.
This survey reviews 490 papers on text‑to‑image synthesis (T2I) over the past decade, covering key model families such as GANs, autoregressive models, and diffusion models. It organizes recent research by problem areas—controllability, personalization, editing, preference alignment, efficiency, safety, and spatial consistency—rather than strictly chronologically. The paper also examines unified multimodal models, datasets, evaluation metrics, and discusses applications, challenges, and future research directions in T2I.

The paper presents ChatNDE Figure to Caption, an AI system that automates the interpretation of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) images. It combines a Vision‑and‑Language Pretraining (VLP) approach using ResNet50 for visual feature extraction and GPT‑2 for natural‑language captioning, evaluated with BLEU scores. Additionally, a Visual Question Answering (VQA) model is integrated to answer specific queries about the images, enhancing interactivity for field inspectors.
The paper introduces a post‑training approach that enables a single inference process to transition from text reasoning to image synthesis, eliminating the need for explicit modality switching. Using the 14B BAGEL model, the authors demonstrate that targeted post‑training data and reward‑weighted training improve multimodal image generation across four independent T2I benchmarks. The study highlights the benefits of joint text‑image generation and strategic data selection for enhancing T2I performance.

DEPICT is a new training‑free metric for evaluating text‑to‑image alignment. It replaces fixed reference answers with an agreement rule that compares image‑based and caption‑only responses, weighting questions by how decisively the caption determines them. By merging this agreement score with a holistic score, DEPICT improves negation accuracy dramatically and outperforms existing training‑free metrics while matching or exceeding fine‑tuned evaluators on several benchmarks.
