🔹Title: Aligning Text-to-Image Diffusion Model with Image-to-Text Concept Matching
🔸Presenter: Arash Marioriyad
🌀Abstract: Diffusion models have achieved significant success in text-to-image generation. However, alleviating the misalignment between text prompts and generated images remains a challenging issue. This presentation will focus on two observed causes of misalignment: concept ignorance and concept mis-mapping. To address these issues, we will discuss CoMat, an end-to-end diffusion model fine-tuning strategy that uses an image-to-text concept matching mechanism. Using only 20K text prompts to fine-tune SDXL, CoMat significantly outperforms the baseline SDXL model on two text-to-image alignment benchmarks, achieving state-of-the-art performance.

Telegram Gives Up On Crypto Blockchain Project
Durov said on his Telegram channel today that the two and a half year blockchain and crypto project has been put to sleep. Ironically, after leaving Russia because the government wanted his encryption keys to his social media firm, Durov’s cryptocurrency idea lost steam because of a U.S. court. “The technology we created allowed for an open, free, decentralized exchange of value and ideas. TON had the potential to revolutionize how people store and transfer funds and information,” he wrote on his channel. “Unfortunately, a U.S. court stopped TON from happening.”
