让AI生成既新颖又协调的艺术概念,打破套路束缚。

Cultural Alien Sampler: Open-ended art generation balancing originality and coherence

  • 用两个模型分离概念搭配的合理性与文化常见度,精准筛选创意组合。
  • 人类评估中表现优于随机选择和GPT-4o,接近真人艺术生水平。
  • 能探索更广的概念空间,适合需要突破常规的创造性任务。

在开放性艺术生成领域,自主代理需生成既新颖又内部连贯的想法,但现有大语言模型要么沿用熟悉的文化模式,要么在追求新意时牺牲一致性。为此,我们提出文化异质采样器(Cultural Alien Sampler, CAS),通过显式分离概念搭配的构图合理性与文化典型性来解决该问题。CAS使用两个在WikiArt概念上微调的GPT-2模型:一个概念一致性模型评估概念在作品中是否合理共现,另一个文化语境模型衡量这些组合在特定艺术家作品中的典型程度。目标是选取高一致性且低典型性的组合,从而生成既保持内在逻辑又脱离既有惯例的创意。在100人的人类评估中,我们的方法优于随机选择和GPT-4o基线,其原创性与和谐感表现接近人类艺术学生水平。定量分析进一步显示,相比GPT-4o,CAS生成的输出更具多样性,覆盖更广阔的概念空间,证明人工文化异质性可激发自主代理的创造力潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In open-ended domains like art, autonomous agents must generate ideas that are both original and internally coherent, yet current Large Language Models (LLMs) either default to familiar cultural patterns or sacrifice coherence when pushed toward novelty. We address this by introducing the Cultural Alien Sampler (CAS), a concept-selection method that explicitly separates compositional fit from cultural typicality. CAS uses two GPT-2 models fine-tuned on WikiArt concepts: a Concept Coherence Model that scores whether concepts plausibly co-occur within artworks, and a Cultural Context Model that estimates how typical those combinations are within individual artists' bodies of work. CAS targets combinations that are high in coherence and low in typicality, yielding ideas that maintain internal consistency while deviating from learned conventions and embedded cultural context. In a human evaluation (N = 100), our approach outperforms random selection and GPT-4o baselines and achieves performance comparable to human art students in both perceived originality and harmony. Additionally, a quantitative study shows that our method produces more diverse outputs and explores a broader conceptual space than its GPT-4o counterpart, demonstrating that artificial cultural alienness can unlock creative potential in autonomous agents.
