DeepGen 1.0: A Lightweight Unified Multimodal Model for Advancing Image Generation and Editing — Wang et al. (2026) (arXiv:2602.12205, 2026)
What this evaluates
Evaluates a unified multimodal model's capabilities in text-to-image generation, image editing, and world-knowledge reasoning. It probes semantic alignment, long-horizon instruction following, fine-grained attribute binding, and precise text rendering across diverse scenarios.
Datasets
- GenEval — total ?; splits: test (-1)
- DPG-Bench — total ?; splits: test (-1)
- UniGenBench — total ?; splits: test (-1)
- WISE — total 1000; splits: test (1000)

- RISE — total 327; splits: test (327)
- CVTG-2K — total 2000; splits: test (2000)
Metrics
GenEval (primary) — range: [0, 1]
- Automated semantic alignment score computed using the official GenEval LLM-based evaluation script. Measures how well generated images match the semantic content of text prompts.
DPG-Bench — range: other
- Instruction-following score based on LLM-as-a-judge evaluations of long-prompt adherence and image quality.
UniGenBench — range: other
- Comprehensive fine-grained generation score aggregating performance across ten categories including attribute binding, style control, and text rendering.
WISE — range: [0, 1]
- World-knowledge reasoning generation score evaluating cultural, scientific, and spatial-temporal understanding.
T2I-CoREBench — range: other
- Reasoning generation score across eight structured categories (Logical, Behavioral, Hypothetical, etc.).
GEdit-EN — range: other
- Image editing score measuring instruction following, editing consistency, and output quality.
RISE — range: other
- Reasoning-based editing score across temporal, causal, spatial, and logical dimensions.
UniREditBench — range: other
- World-knowledge-grounded editing score covering real- and game-world scenarios.
CVTG-2K Word Accuracy — range: [0, 1]
- Character-level correctness and legibility score for English text generation in diverse scenarios.
Input / output format
Input: Text prompt for generation tasks; text prompt plus reference image for editing tasks.
Output: A single generated image per prompt.
Scoring recipe
def evaluate(model, benchmark_name, test_set):
scores = []
for item in test_set:
prompt = item['prompt']
ref_img = item.get('reference_image')
gen_img = model.generate(prompt, ref_img)
score = get_benchmark_score(benchmark_name, gen_img, prompt, ref_img)
scores.append(score)
return sum(scores) / len(scores) if scores else 0.0
Common pitfalls
- Different sampling schedules or CFG scales drastically change scores on GenEval and DPGBench.
- Using unofficial or outdated versions of benchmark evaluators (e.g., GenEval's LLM-based script) leads to non-comparable results.
- Confusing SFT-only and RL-finetuned checkpoint results, as RL consistently yields higher scores across all benchmarks.
Evidence (verbatim from paper)
We assess general text-to-image generation using GenEval [48] to measure fundamental semantic alignment, and DPG-Bench [49] to assess long-prompt instruction following. In addition, we adopt UniGenBench [27] for a comprehensive and fine-grained evaluation of general generation capability, covering ten major categories (e.g., attribute binding, style control, and text rendering).
