arXiv:2606.24849v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unified multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved strong text-to-image generation quality, but still struggle with structure-aware prompt following, where object counts, spatial relations, attribute bindings, and coarse layouts must be preserved. We attribute this limitation in part to the entanglement of structural planning and appearance rendering within a single conditioning stream. To address this issue, we propose Implicit Visual Chain-of-Thought (IV-CoT), a latent visual reasoning framework for query-conditioned image genera
The rapid advancement of MLLMs in text-to-image generation has highlighted current limitations in precise structural control, making research into novel architectures like IV-CoT a timely necessity.
Improving structure-aware text-to-image generation is critical for commercial applications requiring high-fidelity content creation and for advancing the capabilities of generative AI in general.
This research proposes a new architectural approach (Implicit Visual Chain-of-Thought) that disentangles structural planning from appearance rendering, potentially leading to more controllable and precise image generation.
