When Composition Doesn't Add Up: Humans Identifying Defects in AI-Generated Images

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.
