Natural language instructions are a powerful interface for editing the outputs of text-to-image diffusion models. However, several challenges need to be addressed: 1) underspecification (the need to model the implicit meaning of…
The "dirty" image made by direct Fourier inversion of visibility data is an important first step in inteferometric imaging. This is where the "deconvolution problem" is defined and the degree to which that problem is either well- or…

Digital advertising increasingly relies on visual content, yet marketers lack rigorous methods for understanding how specific visual attributes causally affect consumer engagement. This paper addresses a fundamental methodological…
Text-guided image editing on real or synthetic images, given only the original image itself and the target text prompt as inputs, is a very general and challenging task. It requires an editing model to estimate by itself which part of the…
Unsupervised image-to-image translation methods aim to map images from one domain into plausible examples from another domain while preserving structures shared across two domains. In the many-to-many setting, an additional guidance example…
As AI models grow more complex, explainability is essential for building trust, yet concept-based counterfactual methods still face a trade-off between expressivity and efficiency. Representing underlying concepts as atomic sets is fast but…
