Researchers have developed APEX, a new metric for evaluating image quality generated by AI models. APEX utilizes the Sliced Wasserstein Distance, a mathematically sound approach that avoids assumptions about feature distributions. It is designed to be flexible, working with various feature extractors like CLIP and DINOv2, and demonstrates greater robustness to visual degradations compared to existing methods. AI
