StarVector - A multimodal AI model for generating scalable vector graphics (SVG) from images and text.

## Purpose of StarVector StarVector is designed to generate scalable vector graphics (SVG) from images or text inputs. It helps designers and developers efficiently convert raster images or textual instructions into precise SVG code, eliminating the need for manual creation of complex vector graphics. ## Specialization of StarVector StarVector specializes in generating complex vector graphics such as icons, logos, and technical diagrams. It is not suitable for processing natural images or illustrations. ## Training Datasets for StarVector StarVector was trained on the SVG-Stack dataset, which contains over 2 million SVG samples, and evaluated on the SVG-Bench dataset, which includes 10 sub-datasets covering diverse vector representations like icons, fonts, and diagrams. ## Performance Comparison of StarVector StarVector outperforms traditional methods like AutoTrace, Potrace, and VTracer in image-to-SVG and text-to-SVG tasks. For example, the StarVector-8B model achieved scores above 0.966 in SVG-Icons and SVG-Diagrams datasets, significantly higher than other methods. ## Key Features of StarVector - **Multimodal Architecture**: Combines vision and language processing to generate SVG from diverse inputs. - **Complex SVG Support**: Generates SVG with elements like circles, polygons, text, and complex paths without simplification. - **Large-Scale Training**: Trained on SVG-Stack (2.1M samples) for robustness and accuracy. - **Leading Performance**: Excels in image-to-SVG and text-to-SVG tasks. ## Accessing StarVector Resources - **Project Homepage**: [starvector.org](https://starvector.org) - **GitHub Repository**: [star-vector](https://github.com/joanrod/star-vector) - **Hugging Face Models**: [starvector-models](https://huggingface.co/collections/starvector/starvector-models-6783b22c7bd4b43d13cb5289) - **Academic Paper**: [arXiv](https://arXiv.org/abs/2312.11556) - **Datasets**: [starvector-svg-datasets](https://huggingface.co/collections/starvector/starvector-svg-datasets-67811204a76475be4dd66d09) ## Specialization of StarVector StarVector is not suitable for generating SVG from natural images or illustrations.
