Beyond Starry Night: Shortcut-Aware Control-State Planning for Artist-Grounded Text to Image Generation
Atelier tries to stop image models from turning artist names into visual shortcuts.
The paper says artist-grounded generation often swaps the requested scene for familiar motifs, palettes, or period cues tied to the artist. Atelier builds an explicit control state that separates what to preserve, what to transform, what evidence supports the artist style, and what shortcuts to avoid. The authors test it with ArtIntentBench across Van Gogh and Qi Baishi tasks, reporting better style fidelity, stronger structure preservation, and less shortcut substitution than several baselines.
