Training-Free Structured Diffusion Guidance for Compositional Text-to-Image Synthesis [PDF]
International Conference on Learning Representations, 2022 Large-scale diffusion models have achieved state-of-the-art results on text-to-image synthesis (T2I) tasks. Despite their ability to generate high-quality yet creative images, we observe that attribution-binding and compositional capabilities are still ...
