用可验证的美学指标提升AI生成幻灯片的视觉布局质量。
AeSlides: Incentivizing Aesthetic Layout in LLM-Based Slide Generation via Verifiable Rewards

- 设计可验证的量化指标,高效评估幻灯片布局美感。
- 在5000个提示下,版面合规率从36%升至85%,空白区域减少44%。
- 无需复杂视觉反馈或大量数据,适合快速优化幻灯片生成。
大语言模型在幻灯片生成任务中展现出巨大潜力,但其文本驱动的本质与视觉美学需求之间存在模态鸿沟,导致生成效果常不理想。现有方法依赖高成本的视觉回溯或大规模数据微调,监督效果有限。本文提出AeSlides,一种基于可验证奖励的强化学习框架,通过精心设计的可量化指标精准捕捉版面布局问题,如比例、留白、元素重叠和视觉失衡。在仅使用5000个训练提示的GLM-4.7-Flash上,该方法将版面符合率从36%提升至85%,留白减少44%,元素重叠降低43%,视觉失衡下降28%。人工评估显示整体质量得分从3.31升至3.56(+7.6%),优于基于模型奖励和反射式代理的方法,甚至超过Claude-Sonnet-4.5。结果证明,这种可验证美学范式是高效且可扩展的视觉对齐方案。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong potential in agentic tasks, particularly in slide generation. However, slide generation poses a fundamental challenge: the generation process is text-centric, whereas its quality is governed by visual aesthetics. This modality gap leads current models to frequently produce slides with aesthetically suboptimal layouts. Existing solutions typically rely either on heavy visual reflection, which incurs high inference cost yet yields limited gains; or on fine-tuning with large-scale datasets, which still provides weak and indirect aesthetic supervision. In contrast, the explicit use of aesthetic principles as supervision remains unexplored. In this work, we present AeSlides, a reinforcement learning framework with verifiable rewards for Aesthetic layout supervision in Slide generation. We introduce a suite of meticulously designed verifiable metrics to quantify slide layout quality, capturing key layout issues in an accurate, efficient, and low-cost manner. Leveraging these verifiable metrics, we develop a GRPO-based reinforcement learning method that directly optimizes slide generation models for aesthetically coherent layouts. With only 5K training prompts on GLM-4.7-Flash, AeSlides improves aspect ratio compliance from 36% to 85%, while reducing whitespace by 44%, element collisions by 43%, and visual imbalance by 28%. Human evaluation further shows a substantial improvement in overall quality, increasing scores from 3.31 to 3.56 (+7.6%), outperforming both model-based reward optimization and reflection-based agentic approaches, and even edging out Claude-Sonnet-4.5. These results demonstrate that such a verifiable aesthetic paradigm provides an efficient and scalable approach to aligning slide generation with human aesthetic preferences.
