报告简介：

Large language models (LLMs) and diffusion models have captivated both practitioners and the public with their remarkable capabilities in generative AI, yet control over object-level generation and editing remains less explored. Moreover, the allure of deploying generative foundation models in self-driving and visual editing has promoted the need for deeper investigation into generative modeling. For this reason, our recent research focuses on designing an alternative generative model: compositional generative AI for content creation. Compositional modeling, a fundamental concept in both computer vision and computer graphics, involves creating visual scenes through the assembly of components, objects, or elements with precise placement and interaction. This approach not only boosts controllability for user-friendly editing but also enhances the performance of visual downstream tasks like object detection and semantic segmentation.
