This paper presents a new evaluation metric called Visual Language Evaluation Understudy (VLEU) to assess Text-to-Image (T2I) models’ ability to handle diverse textual prompts. Existing metrics are inadequate, leading to inconsistent model performance and generalizability. VLEU samples from the visual text domain using large language models, generating a wide range of prompts. The images generated from these prompts are evaluated based on their alignment with input texts using CLIP. This metric enables comparison between T2I models and tracks improvements during finetuning. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of VLEU in evaluating generalization capability, making it an essential metric for future research.

Text-to-Image (T2I) models have gotten better at creating images from text descriptions, but there’s a problem. The way we measure how good these models are isn’t very good either! This paper introduces a new way to evaluate T2I models called VLEU. It uses big language models to generate lots of different text prompts and then checks how well the image generated from each prompt matches what the text says. This helps us compare different T2I models and see which ones are getting better at understanding what we mean.
