The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
The reading
What carries the argument
The central mechanism is a fully automatic labeling pipeline. For single-turn edits, it scores each generated output by comparing it to the input and ground-truth images: CLIP directional similarity below 0.2 marks partial success, CLIP-I and DINO-I below the dataset's fifth percentile mark failure, and all outputs from DiffEdit, Pix2Pix-Zero, SDEdit, and Text2LIVE are treated as failures because those models produce inconsistent edits. For multi-turn sequences, the score function f in Eq. 4 assigns 0 to earlier images, the fraction $(k-j_1)/(j_2-j_1)$ to intermediate turns, 1 to the ground truth, and 0.5 to over-edited later images. These examples fine-tune a LLaVA-NeXT-8B whose vocabulary is extended with a special [SCORE] token, and a small MLP decoder turns that token's embedding into the numeric rating; LoRA keeps the fine-tune efficient.
What would settle it
Take a random sample of the constructed 100K training examples, have several human raters assign scores, and compute the agreement between the heuristic label and the human average. Alternatively, feed the scorer pairs where the heuristic labels are demonstrably wrong—such as a high-quality DiffEdit output or a multi-turn intermediate image that already satisfies the full instruction—and check whether the scorer still follows the heuristic rather than the image content.
Extended reading notes
Core claim
On the paper's own terms, the discovery is that instruction-guided editing data implicitly contains evaluation signal: the original input image is a failed edit, the ground-truth output is a perfect edit, and intermediate images in multi-turn sequences are partial edits whose score is the fraction of instructions completed. The paper augments this with outputs from nine editing models, labels low-quality-model outputs as failures and uses CLIP directional similarity thresholds to flag partial successes, then trains a LLaVA-NeXT-8B with a special [SCORE] token whose embedding is decoded by an MLP into a number. Trained this way, the scorer achieves a 0.4734 Spearman correlation with human ratings on AURORA-Bench point-wise and 59.96 percent pair-wise accuracy on GenAI-Bench, surpassing all open-source VLMs and Gemini-Pro 1.5; on ImagenHub it beats all open-source VLMs and Gemini-Pro 1.5 while trailing only GPT-4o. As a reward model, it lifts the editing model's average ImagenHub score from 5.90 to 6.43, a gain the paper reports as +8.98 percent.
Load-bearing premise
The load-bearing premise is that the heuristic labels—DiffEdit, Pix2Pix-Zero, SDEdit, and Text2LIVE outputs always fail, CLIP-D below 0.2 means partial success, and an intermediate turn's score is the completed fraction of instructions—match what human raters would say; if any of these rules is wrong in the bulk of samples, the scorer's human alignment is an artifact of the labeling scheme.
Editorial extensions
If this is right
- A VLM judge trained entirely on automatically generated labels can beat strong open-source and proprietary evaluators, so human-annotated evaluation datasets are not a prerequisite for good alignment.
- The scorer can pick the best edit among candidates, enabling automated model selection and leaderboard ranking without manual inspection.
- Using the scorer as a reward signal improves the editing model's output quality by a measurable margin (+8.98 percent average score), so automatic judges can substitute for human feedback in fine-tuning.
- Because the dataset creation recipe relies only on editing datasets and generic CLIP/DINO thresholds, it should transfer to new editing methods and benchmarks without new annotation effort.
Reading between the lines
- This reader infers that the method's ceiling is set by the heuristics: if CLIP and DINO miss fine-grained failures that humans notice, the scorer will inherit that blind spot.
- This reader infers the reward-model gain may partly reflect the scorer rewarding the same coarse semantics it was trained to detect, so improvements on human preference could be smaller than the +8.98 percent metric suggests.
- This reader infers the same recipe could be applied to other instruction-following generative domains, such as video or 3D editing, wherever a ground-truth anchor and a multi-turn sequence exist.
- A testable extension would be to train the scorer with a small human-annotated correction set on top of the heuristics and measure whether alignment improves further.
Editorial analysis
A structured set of objections, weighed in public.
Referee Report
Summary. The paper introduces ADIEE, a pipeline that automatically constructs a large training dataset for instruction-guided image editing evaluation by (i) generating edited outputs with nine editing methods on MagicBrush and Emu-Edit images and assigning heuristic scores, and (ii) extracting multi-turn edit sequences from SEED-Data-Edit-Part3. The authors fine-tune LLaVA-NeXT-8B with a special score token and an MLP decoder to predict a 0–10 quality score, and evaluate the resulting scorer on ImagenHub, GenAI-Bench, and AURORA-Bench. They also use the scorer as a reward model to fine-tune MagicBrush, reporting an improvement in the scorer's own evaluation on ImagenHub. The paper claims state-of-the-art alignment with human ratings across all benchmarks.
Significance. If the claims hold, ADIEE offers a scalable, transparent alternative to proprietary VLM judges, and a practical reward model for improving editing models. The paper releases code and models and includes a human preference study, which are strengths. However, the central generalization claim is currently threatened by (a) likely overlap between ADIEE's training sources and AURORA-Bench, (b) inconsistent numbers across the main text and appendix, and (c) a protocol-sensitivity issue where a 1-shot GPT-4o baseline exceeds the proposed scorer on AURORA-Bench point-wise. These issues are load-bearing for the headline claims and require substantial revision.
major comments (5)
- [§4.1 and Appendix C] The training set is built from 9,935 MagicBrush samples, 1,100 instructions on Emu-Edit test images, and 21,382 SEED-Data-Edit-Part3 sequences (Section 4.1). Appendix C states that AURORA-Bench point-wise and pair-wise samples are collected from MagicBrush and Emu-Edit, among other sources. The paper reports no deduplication or overlap analysis between ADIEE training data and the AURORA-Bench evaluation sets. If the same images or instructions appear in both, the reported Spearman correlation (0.4734) and pairwise accuracy gains could reflect memorization rather than generalized evaluation ability. The authors should quantify the overlap and re-evaluate on the subset of AURORA-Bench that does not stem from training sources (e.g., video-derived samples), and report the correlation on that subset separately.
- [Tables 2, 5, and Appendix Table 7] There are major numerical inconsistencies for the same ADIEE scorer across the manuscript. Table 2 reports GenAI-Bench accuracy 59.96 and AURORA-Bench pair-wise 55.56; Table 5 reports 59.41 and 52.38 for the same conditions; Appendix Table 7 reports 59.41 and 52.88. The abstract's +4.75% gain on AURORA pair-wise is only consistent with the main-text Table 2 value of 55.56, not with the appendix value. Similarly, Section 4.4 reports that reward-conditioned MagicBrush improves the ImagenHub score from 5.90 to 6.43, while Section 4.5 mentions a score of 6.67 for 'our method' and 4.27 for the without-reward-conditioning variant. These discrepancies must be reconciled and the source of variation (e.g., different evaluation subsets, random seeds, or post-processing) must be stated explicitly.
- [Appendix Table 6 and Abstract] Appendix Table 6 shows that GPT-4o with a 1-shot in-context example reaches 0.4779 Spearman correlation on AURORA-Bench point-wise, which is higher than the proposed ADIEE scorer's 0.4734. The main text, however, compares against zero-shot baselines and claims a +17.24% improvement over state-of-the-art. This makes the SOTA claim protocol-sensitive. The authors should either include the 1-shot baselines in the main tables, or justify why zero-shot is the appropriate comparison and temper the abstract and conclusion accordingly.
- [§3.4 and §4.4, Tables 3–4] The reward-model improvement on ImagenHub (+8.98%, from 5.90 to 6.43) is measured by the ADIEE scorer itself, which is the very model being proposed. The human pairwise study in Table 4 provides some external validation, but it is not directly linked to the ImagenHub score improvement and lacks any significance test. In addition, the count column in Table 4 (914 + 752 + 1190 = 2856) does not match the stated protocol of 56 participants x 50 comparisons (2800). The authors should report human-rated quality scores for the baseline and fine-tuned models, or at least provide a statistical test on the preference counts, and correct the count mismatch.
- [§3.1 and Eq. (4)] The heuristic score assignments are strong and untested assumptions. Section 3.1 assigns score 0 to all outputs from DiffEdit, Pix2Pix-Zero, SDEdit, and Text2LIVE, and uses a CLIP-D threshold of tau = 0.2 to identify partial edits. Equation (4) assigns intermediate multi-turn edits a score proportional to the fraction of completed instructions, and assigns 0.5 to over-edited outputs. These rules are not validated against human perception. Since ImagenHub and AURORA-Bench include outputs from some of these same editing methods, the scorer could partially align with human ratings by learning method-specific biases. A small human-annotation study on a sample of the generated training data, or an ablation showing that the results are stable to changes in these thresholds, is needed to support the claim that the labels track human judgment.
minor comments (7)
- [Abstract and §2.3] The introduction states that 'no public training datasets exist to fine-tune open-source VLMs' for image-editing evaluation, but Related Work Section 2.3 cites OmniEdit and RewardEdit20K, which are public training datasets built with proprietary models. The claim should be qualified to refer to human-annotated or open-label datasets.
- [§3.1] The sentence 'we apply a CLIP-D threshold of tau_CLIP-D = 0.2, which is used in IP2P to keep successful edits, and assign this score to samples below the threshold' is ambiguous: in IP2P, a higher CLIP-D typically indicates a more successful edit, so it is unclear whether score 0.5 is assigned to samples below or above the threshold. Please clarify the intended direction.
- [Table 4] The total number of human preference comparisons (2856) does not match the stated 56 participants each comparing 50 pairs (2800). Please verify the numbers or the procedure.
- [§4.5] The section title 'Alation Study' should be 'Ablation Study'.
- [Figure 8 caption] The caption reads 'face are blocked'; this should be 'faces are blocked'.
- [Appendix Table 7] Several entries report 0.0 for Qwen2.5-VL (1-shot) on GenAI-Bench and for Fuyu, CogVLM, and OpenFlamingo on AURORA-Bench pair-wise; these likely reflect parsing or formatting failures rather than true accuracies and should be marked as unavailable instead of 0.0.
- [§4.4] The reward-feedback-learning result (score 6.30) is only mentioned in the text; presenting it in a table alongside the reward-conditioning result would improve reproducibility.
Circularity Check
Partial circularity: reward-model gain is self-scored, and AURORA-Bench overlaps ADIEE training sources.
-
fitted input called prediction
[Section 3.4 (Eq. 5) and Section 4.4]
"we generate the pristine edited output and its evaluation score s (normalized to 0-10) using the proposed scorer. The reward feedback learning loss is formulated as: Lreward = 10− s ... According to our evaluation scorer, the MagicBrush baseline [83] achieves an average score of 5.90 on ImagenHub samples [38], while our model fine-tuned with reward conditioning scores 6.43 (+8.98%)."
The same ADIEE scorer supplies score s in the training loss Lreward = 10 - s, so the editing model is explicitly optimized to maximize ADIEE's scores. Section 4.4 then measures the claimed improvement with that same scorer, so the +8.98% and +6.78% gains are partly self-consistency results: the model was trained to please the scorer and is then judged by the same scorer. The independent human pairwise preference study (Table 4, 41.67% vs 32.00%) provides external evidence, so the circularity is partial rather than total, but the headline numeric gains are not independent evidence of improved editing quality.

other
[Section 4.1 and Appendix C]
"We use 9,935 samples from MagicBrush [83] and 1,100 additional instructions for global/style edits on Emu-Edit test images [60], generating 93,915 outputs via nine text-guided editing methods. ... Samples from AURORA-Bench are collected from multiple sources: MagicBrush [83], Action-Genome [31], Something-Something [24], Epic-Kitchen [17], Kubric [25], CLEVR [33], WhatsUp [34], and Emu-Edit [60]."
Training data is built from MagicBrush samples and Emu-Edit test images, and AURORA-Bench is explicitly collected from MagicBrush and Emu-Edit among other sources. With no reported deduplication or source-based train/test split, AURORA-Bench samples can coincide with ADIEE training samples, letting the scorer memorize expected scores for seen images/instructions rather than learn general evaluation. This affects the point-wise correlation (0.4734) and pairwise accuracy (55.56) on AURORA-Bench, which are central to the claim of outperforming all baselines. Because GenAI-Bench/ImagenHub results and the human preference study are external, this is a contamination risk rather than a definitional circularity, but it is load-bearing.
full rationale
The main scorer claim is not definitionally circular: ADIEE is trained on heuristically labeled data and tested against human-annotated benchmarks (ImagenHub, GenAI-Bench, and the human preference study), and the scorer's gains over its own CLIP/DINO label sources show it learned beyond the heuristics. However, two load-bearing steps weaken the strongest claims. First, the reward-model improvement is measured by the same scorer used as the training reward, so the headline +8.98% is partly self-measurement, though the external human preference study mitigates this. Second, AURORA-Bench is assembled from the same source datasets (MagicBrush, Emu-Edit) used to construct ADIEE training data, and no overlap analysis is reported, so the AURORA-Bench numbers may be inflated by memorization. These are not self-citation or uniqueness-theorem issues; no load-bearing self-citations appear. Overall partial circularity, score 5.

Recent advances in instruction-guided image editing underscore the need for effective automated evaluation. While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have been explored as judges, open-source models struggle with alignment, and proprietary models lack transparency and cost efficiency. Additionally, no public training datasets exist to fine-tune open-source VLMs, only small benchmarks with diverse evaluation schemes. To address this, we introduce ADIEE, an automated dataset creation approach which is then used to train a scoring model for instruction-guided image editing evaluation. We generate a large-scale dataset with over 100K samples and use it to fine-tune a LLaVA-NeXT-8B model modified to decode a numeric score from a custom token. The resulting scorer outperforms all open-source VLMs and Gemini-Pro 1.5 across all benchmarks, achieving a 0.0696 (+17.24%) gain in score correlation with human ratings on AURORA-Bench, and improving pair-wise comparison accuracy by 4.03% (+7.21%) on GenAI-Bench and 4.75% (+9.35%) on AURORA-Bench, respectively, compared to the state-of-the-art. The scorer can act as a reward model, enabling automated best edit selection and model fine-tuning. Notably, the proposed scorer can boost MagicBrush model's average evaluation score on ImagenHub from 5.90 to 6.43 (+8.98%). Our code and models are available at https://github.com/SherryXTChen/ADIEE.git.
