X-MULTI: VLM-based Imaging Factor Disentanglement for Factor-Aware Image Synthesis
Imaging factor disentanglement in text-to-image generation aims to independently control image acquisition properties such as types of camera lenses, sensor types, viewpoints, and domains to enable combinatorial generalization. This should let the model synthesize novel factor combinations unobserved in the training data, such as pairing a fisheye lens with an event sensor never observed in training data. Recent work, MULTI, introduced learnable, factor-specific embeddings to disentangle imaging factors, along with the Factor Alignment Accuracy (FAA) metric to evaluate disentanglement quality.
