Abstract: A method is provided that includes training a CLIP model to learn embeddings of images and text from matched image-text pairs. The text represents image attributes. The method trains a StyleGAN on images in a training dataset of matched image-text pairs. The method also trains, using a CLIP model guided contrastive loss which attracts matched text embedding pairs and repels unmatched pairs, a text-to-direction model to predict a text direction that is semantically aligned with an input text responsive to the input text and a random latent code.

The method generates, by the trained StyleGAN, positive and negative synthesized images by respectively adding and subtracting the text direction in the latent space of the trained StyleGAN corresponding to a word for each of the words in the training dataset.
