arXiv:2606.00188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While current multimodal models are proficient at open-ended visual editing, executing precise single-answer edits remains an important obstacle. To probe this challenge, we introduce PaintBench, a dynamically scalable benchmark targeting 20 fundamental precise visual editing operations across four categories: geometric transformation, structural manipulation, color change, and symbolic reasoning. Procedural generation with configurable complexity enables an effectively infinite, contamination-resistant evaluation suite, and deterministic pixel
The proliferation of open-ended multimodal AI editing tools necessitates more precise and deterministic evaluation methods to advance capabilities beyond current limitations.
This benchmark addresses a critical gap in AI's ability to perform exact visual edits, which is crucial for real-world applications requiring high accuracy and control.
The introduction of PaintBench provides a standardized, scalable, and contamination-resistant method for evaluating precise visual editing, potentially fostering more reliable and controllable AI systems.
