Defining and Quantifying Creative Behavior in Popular Image Generators

Creativity of generative AI models has been a subject of scientific debate in the last years, without a conclusive answer. In this paper, we study creativity from a practical perspective and introduce quantitative measures that help the user to choose a suitable AI model for a given task. We evaluated our measures on a number of popular image-to-image generation models, and the results of this suggest that our measures conform to human intuition.
