The aim of this paper is twofold. First, it investigates whether newer generative models are getting better at pastiching contemporary artworks.
Composition, the deliberate arrangement of visual elements, is central to how meaning, emotion, and aesthetic quality are conveyed in artwork, yet it remains among the least formalized dimensions of visual understanding. Prior work highlights a persistent gap in learning meaningful compositional representations, attributing it to semantic bias and suggesting that human-inspired approaches may be key.
The paper introduces a self‑supervised framework that maps text, audio, image, and video into a shared 256‑dimensional embedding space and uses iterative clustering to uncover aesthetic structure. It examines how AI’s cluster assignments diverge from human affective labels on a weakly supervised multimodal dataset. The study highlights implications for cross‑modal similarity, media organization for Retrieval‑Augmented Generation, and automated data labeling.
