The images are synthetic and may reflect biases inherent in the generative
models used.
personalSensitiveInformation: None. The dataset contains no PII (Personally Identifiable Information).
dataUseCases: >-
Research on visual reasoning and color-object association in multimodal
models.

VIOLIN: VIsual Obedience Level-4 EvaluatIoN
VIOLIN (VIsual Obedience Level-4 EvaluatIoN) is a diagnostic benchmark designed to assess the Level-4 Instructional Obedience of text-to-image generative models.
While state-of-the-art models can render complex semantic scenes (e.g., "Cyberpunk cityscapes"), they often fail at the most fundamental deterministic tasks: generating a perfectly pure, texture-less color image. VIOLIN provides a rigorous framework to measure this "Paradox of Simplicity."
📊 Dataset Structure
| Task | Description | Metrics |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Color purity (single block) | Full-frame uniform color from ISCC–NBS Level-2. | drgb_ed, dlab_00, dsd, dced, dhf |
| 2. Color purity (two blocks) | Fill uniform color in two regions. | drgb_ed, dlab_00, dsd, dced, dhf |
| 3. Geometric shape | Render a specified shape (e.g., a circle) at a prompt-defined position and scale. | diou, ddist, dsize, dshape, dpure |
| 4. Image masking | Apply mask on image. Based on the image in TencentARC BrushNet. | diou, dbiou, dleak, ddist, dedge |
