IDEAL: In-DEpth ALignment Makes A Discrete Representation AutoEncoder

Built on pretrained vision foundation models (VFMs), representation autoencoders (RAEs) have recently emerged as a promising approach for constructing semantically rich latent spaces for image generation. However, their reconstruction quality often remains suboptimal, largely because deep VFM representations do not preserve sufficient fine-grained visual detail.

Giraffe: A Mapping Architecture from Hidden Text Representations to Visual Embeddings for Efficient Graphic Design

The paper introduces Giraffe, a new mapping architecture that converts hidden text token representations into visual embeddings for graphic design tasks. It uses a single [IMG] token per image and two shallow MLP blocks—one for training and one for inference—to compress and expand embeddings, trained with six loss functions. The approach achieves strong performance in both image‑to‑design and text‑to‑design generation while remaining lightweight.

Chart2SVG: Editable SVG Generation from Raster Chart Images

Chart2SVG is a multimodal large language model that transforms static raster chart images into editable SVGs enriched with semantic structure. By embedding chart‑specific semantic tokens into a vision‑language framework and training on the Beagle+ dataset of 33K distilled chart samples, the model captures both geometric primitives and their functional roles. The resulting SVGs are visually accurate and structurally consistent, and the accompanying Chart Structure Graph (CSG) exposes visual dependencies for interactive exploration, chart repurposing, and layout reuse.
