让用户通过语义主题平面更直观地操控图像生成风格。
ThematicPlane: Bridging Tacit User Intent and Latent Spaces for Image Generation
- 构建交互式主题设计平面，直接操控情绪、风格等高层语义概念。
- 6名用户参与测试，探索中常将意外结果视为创作灵感。
- 适合希望快速试错的设计师或非专业用户使用。
生成式AI让图像创作更易获取，但准确匹配细腻创意意图仍具挑战，尤其对非专业人士而言。现有工具通常要求用户通过提示词或参考图外化想法，限制了灵活探索。本文提出ThematicPlane系统，让用户在交互式主题设计平面上导航和操作高层次语义概念（如氛围、风格或叙事基调），弥合隐性创意意图与系统控制之间的鸿沟。在一项探索性研究中（N=6），参与者在发散与收敛两种创意思维模式间切换，常将意外输出视为灵感或迭代线索。尽管他们基于熟悉主题展开探索，但对主题如何映射到生成结果的预期差异，暴露出对可解释性控制的需求。总体而言，ThematicPlane促进了表达性强、可迭代的工作流程，并揭示了生成设计工具中语义驱动交互的新方向。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Generative AI has made image creation more accessible, yet aligning outputs with nuanced creative intent remains challenging, particularly for non-experts. Existing tools often require users to externalize ideas through prompts or references, limiting fluid exploration. We introduce ThematicPlane, a system that enables users to navigate and manipulate high-level semantic concepts (e.g., mood, style, or narrative tone) within an interactive thematic design plane. This interface bridges the gap between tacit creative intent and system control. In our exploratory study (N=6), participants engaged in divergent and convergent creative modes, often embracing unexpected results as inspiration or iteration cues. While they grounded their exploration in familiar themes, differing expectations of how themes mapped to outputs revealed a need for more explainable controls. Overall, ThematicPlane fosters expressive, iterative workflows and highlights new directions for intuitive, semantics-driven interaction in generative design tools.
