Researchers have identified a critical flaw in Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) when applied to flow-matching text-to-image models, where standard policy entropy fails to prevent a collapse in perceptual diversity. They propose a new metric, perceptual entropy, to accurately capture diversity in the perceptual space, addressing the limitations of policy entropy which remains constant despite diversity loss. Experiments demonstrate that strategies based on perceptual entropy significantly improve the quality-diversity trade-off in image generation models. AI
