Join us this week for an in-depth discussion on Compositional Learning in the context of cutting-edge text-to-image generative models. We will explore recent breakthroughs and challenges, focusing on how these models handle compositional tasks and where improvements can be made.
✅ This Week's Presentation:
🔹 Title: A semiotic methodology for assessing the compositional effectiveness of generative text-to-image models
🔸 Presenter: Amir Kasaei
🌀 Abstract: A new methodology for evaluating text-to-image generation models is being proposed, addressing limitations in current evaluation techniques. Existing methods, which use metrics such as fidelity and CLIPScore, often combine criteria like position, action, and photorealism in their assessments. This new approach adapts model analysis from visual semiotics, establishing distinct visual composition criteria. It highlights three key dimensions: plastic categories, multimodal translation, and enunciation, each with specific sub-criteria. The methodology is tested on Midjourney and DALL·E, providing a structured framework that can be used for future quantitative analyses of generated images.

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that you can buy, sell and exchange directly, without an intermediary like a bank. Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, originally described the need for “an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust.” Each and every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever been made exists on a public ledger accessible to everyone, making transactions hard to reverse and difficult to fake. That’s by design: Core to their decentralized nature, Bitcoins aren’t backed by the government or any issuing institution, and there’s nothing to guarantee their value besides the proof baked in the heart of the system. “The reason why it’s worth money is simply because we, as people, decided it has value—same as gold,” says Anton Mozgovoy, co-founder & CEO of digital financial service company Holyheld.
