Towards a unified evaluation framework: integrating human perception and metrics for AI-generated images
摘要
The rapid growth of AI-generated images in fields such as entertainment, e-commerce, and media has heightened the demand for robust evaluation methods to ensure high-quality, photorealistic outputs. However, current computational metrics often lack alignment with human perception, creating a gap in accurately assessing the quality of AI-generated visuals. This study introduces subjective human assessments named Visual Verity, alongside objective computational metrics, to evaluate photorealism, image quality, and text-image alignment in AI-generated images. We designed a comprehensive questionnaire and benchmarked these assessments against human judgments. The experiments are conducted using state-of-the-art models, including DALL
