xAI's Grok Imagine Image 2.0 takes #4 on the Artificial Analysis Text to Image Leaderboard, the highest ranked model outside OpenAI, a 14 place climb over the previous generation, and lands on the Pareto frontier for quality vs price
Grok Imagine Image 2.0 is xAI's latest image model released in August. The model supports text to image, image editing, as well as multi-reference generations with up to five input images.
Grok Imagine Image 2.0 is a large step up on the previous generation grok-imagine-image-quality: it climbs from #18 to #4 in Text to Image and from #16 to #10 in Image Editing, closing the gap to the leaders on every Text to Image capability and use case we measure, with the largest gains in Knowledge, Text Rendering and Lighting.
Grok Imagine Image 2.0 is available through the xAI API as grok-imagine-image-2.0, in Grok Imagine on grok.com and the Grok apps, and through fal and Replicate.
Congratulations to @spacexai and @elonmusk on the release!

GPT4RoI: Instruction Tuning Large Language Model on Region-of-Interest
paper page: huggingface.co/papers/2307.0…
Instruction tuning large language model (LLM) on image-text pairs has achieved unprecedented vision-language multimodal abilities. However, their vision-language alignments are only built on image-level, the lack of region-level alignment limits their advancements to fine-grained multimodal understanding. In this paper, we propose instruction tuning on region-of-interest. The key design is to reformulate the bounding box as the format of spatial instruction. The interleaved sequences of visual features extracted by the spatial instruction and the language embedding are input to LLM, and trained on the transformed region-text data in instruction tuning format. Our region-level vision-language model, termed as GPT4RoI, brings brand new conversational and interactive experience beyond image-level understanding. (1) Controllability: Users can interact with our model by both language and spatial instructions to flexibly adjust the detail level of the question. (2) Capacities: Our model supports not only single-region spatial instruction but also multi-region. This unlocks more region-level multimodal capacities such as detailed region caption and complex region reasoning. (3) Composition: Any off-the-shelf object detector can be a spatial instruction provider so as to mine informative object attributes from our model, like color, shape, material, action, relation to other objects, etc.

Semantic-SAM: Segment and Recognize Anything at Any Granularity
paper page: huggingface.co/papers/2307.0…
introduce Semantic-SAM, a universal image segmentation model to enable segment and recognize anything at any desired granularity. Our model offers two key advantages: semantic-awareness and granularity-abundance. To achieve semantic-awareness, we consolidate multiple datasets across three granularities and introduce decoupled classification for objects and parts. This allows our model to capture rich semantic information. For the multi-granularity capability, we propose a multi-choice learning scheme during training, enabling each click to generate masks at multiple levels that correspond to multiple ground-truth masks. Notably, this work represents the first attempt to jointly train a model on SA-1B, generic, and part segmentation datasets. Experimental results and visualizations demonstrate that our model successfully achieves semantic-awareness and granularity-abundance. Furthermore, combining SA-1B training with other segmentation tasks, such as panoptic and part segmentation, leads to performance improvements. We will provide code and a demo for further exploration and evaluation.
