6 Models

We evaluate 26 recent text-to-image models, encompassing various types (e.g., diffusion, autoregressive, GAN), sizes (ranging from 0.4B to 13B parameters), organizations, and accessibility (open or closed). Table 4 presents an overview of the models and their corresponding properties. In our evaluation, we employ the default inference configurations provided in the respective model’s API, GitHub, or Hugging Face repositories.
