Researchers have introduced PortraitGen, a new framework designed to enhance photorealistic portrait generation. This method addresses limitations in current text-to-image post-training techniques, which often fail to resolve AI artifacts and biological implausibilities due to a lack of real image data and specific reward mechanisms. PortraitGen incorporates real images directly into the training process and employs a dual-reward system, combining OmniReward for general quality with AI-Portrait for human-centric fidelity. The framework also introduces PortraitBench, a dedicated benchmark for portrait generation, and has demonstrated superior performance in suppressing AI artifacts and achieving greater photorealism.
