When Do Diffusion Models learn to Generate Multiple Objects?

Anna Rohrbach, Arnas Uselis, Iro Laina, Seong Joon Oh, Yujin Jeong

Diffusion models' multi-object generation is limited primarily by scene complexity and held-out combinations rather than imbalance, with counting difficult in low data and compositional generalization collapsing as more combinations are excluded.

Claims

C1strongest claim

By training diffusion models on mosaic, we find that scene complexity plays a dominant role rather than concept imbalance, and that counting is uniquely difficult to learn in low-data regimes. Moreover, compositional generalization collapses as more concept combinations are held out during training.

C2weakest assumption

That the synthetic MOSAIC datasets and the defined regimes of concept versus compositional generalization capture the essential factors driving failures in real-world text-to-image diffusion models trained on natural image distributions.

C3one line summary

Diffusion models' multi-object generation is limited primarily by scene complexity and held-out combinations rather than imbalance, with counting difficult in low data and compositional generalization collapsing as more combinations are excluded.
