Enhancing Image Aesthetics with Dual-Conditioned Diffusion Models Guided by Multimodal Perception

Image aesthetic enhancement aims to perceive aesthetic deficiencies in images and perform corresponding editing operations, which is highly challenging and requires the model to possess creativity and aesthetic perception capabilities. Although recent advancements in image editing models have significantly enhanced their controllability and flexibility, they struggle with enhancing image aesthetic. The primary challenges are twofold: first, following editing instructions with aesthetic perception is difficult, and second, there is a scarcity of "perfectly-paired" images that have consistent content but distinct aesthetic qualities. In this paper, we propose Dual-supervised Image Aesthetic Enhancement (DIAE), a diffusion-based generative model with multimodal aesthetic perception. First, DIAE incorporates Multimodal Aesthetic Perception (MAP) to convert the ambiguous aesthetic instruction into explicit guidance by (i) employing detailed, standardized aesthetic instructions across multiple aesthetic attributes, and (ii) utilizing multimodal control signals derived from text-image pairs that maintain consistency within the same aesthetic attribute. Second, to mitigate the lack of "perfectly-paired" images, we collect "imperfectly-paired" dataset called IIAEData, consisting of images with varying aesthetic qualities while sharing identical semantics. To better leverage the weak matching characteristics of IIAEData during training, a dual-branch supervision framework is also introduced for weakly supervised image aesthetic enhancement. Experimental results demonstrate that DIAE outperforms the baselines and obtains superior image aesthetic scores and image content consistency scores.

AutoWebWorld: Synthesizing Infinite Verifiable Web Environments via Finite State Machines

The performance of autonomous Web GUI agents heavily relies on the quality and quantity of their training data. However, a fundamental bottleneck persists: collecting interaction trajectories from real-world websites is expensive and difficult to verify. The underlying state transitions are hidden, leading to reliance on inconsistent and costly external verifiers to evaluate step-level correctness. To address this, we propose AutoWebWorld, a novel framework for synthesizing controllable and verifiable web environments by modeling them as Finite State Machines (FSMs) and use coding agents to translate FSMs into interactive websites. Unlike real websites, where state transitions are implicit, AutoWebWorld explicitly defines all states, actions, and transition rules. This enables programmatic verification: action correctness is checked against predefined rules, and task success is confirmed by reaching a goal state in the FSM graph. AutoWebWorld enables a fully automated search-and-verify pipeline, generating over 11,663 verified trajectories from 29 diverse web environments at only $0.04 per trajectory. Training on this synthetic data significantly boosts real-world performance. Our 7B Web GUI agent outperforms all baselines within 15 steps on WebVoyager. Furthermore, we observe a clear scaling law: as the synthetic data volume increases, performance on WebVoyager and Online-Mind2Web consistently improves.
