Hence, it is often necessary to sep arate a concept into different aspects to provide new perspectives.\nIn th is paper, we propose a method to decompose a visual concept, represented a s a set of images, into different visual aspects encoded in a hierarchical tree structure. We utilize large vision-language models and their rich la tent space for concept decomposition and generation. \nEach node in the tr ee represents a sub-concept using a learned vector embedding injected into the latent space of a pretrained text-to-image model. We use a set of reg ularizations to guide the optimization of the embedding vectors encoded in the nodes to follow the hierarchical structure of the tree.\nOur method a llows to explore and discover new concepts derived from the original one. The tree provides the possibility of endless visual sampling at each node, allowing the user to explore the hidden sub-concepts of the object of int erest.\nThe learned aspects in each node can be combined within and across trees to create new visual ideas, and can be used in natural language sen tences to apply such aspects to new designs.\n\nRegistration Category: Ful l Access\n\nSession Chair: Peng-Shuai Wang (Peking University) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_200&sess=sess150 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
