| contents | Text-to-Image generative systems are progressing rapidly to be a source of advertisement and media and could soon serve as image searches or artists. However, there is a significant concern about the representativity bias these models embody and how these biases can propagate in the social fabric after fine-tuning them. Therefore, continuously monitoring and evaluating these models for fairness is important. To address this issue, we propose Text-to-Image (TTI) Representativity Fairness Evaluation Framework. In this framework, we evaluate three aspects of a TTI system; diversity, inclusion, and quality. For each aspect, human-based and model-based approaches are proposed and evaluated for their ability to capture the bias and whether they can substitute each other. The framework starts by suggesting the prompts for generating the images for the evaluation based on the context and the sensitive attributes under study. Then the three aspects are evaluated using the proposed approaches. Based on the evaluation, a decision is made regarding the representativity bias within the TTI system. The evaluation of our framework on Stable Diffusion shows that the framework can effectively capture the bias in TTI systems. The results also confirm that our proposed model based-approaches can substitute human-based approaches in three out of four components with high correlation, which could potentially reduce costs and automate the process. The study suggests that continual learning of the model on more inclusive data across disadvantaged minorities such as Indians and Middle Easterners is essential to mitigate current stereotyping and lack of inclusiveness. |
