Dataset Summary

PosterIQ is the poster design benchmark released with PosterIQ: A Design Perspective Benchmark for Poster Understanding and Generation. It contains task-level evaluation data for poster understanding and poster generation from a design perspective, including typography, layout, OCR, composition, style, empty-space use, and design intention.

This Hugging Face loader exposes the upstream release as 24 task-level configurations. Understanding configurations include the released poster image from data.zip. Generation configurations contain prompts, target criteria, and task metadata; their path values identify intended generation output paths and do not point to released source images.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

PosterIQ is intended for evaluating vision-language and image-generation systems on poster design tasks. Understanding tasks pair an input poster image with a prompt and answer metadata. Generation tasks provide poster-generation prompts and evaluation targets or attributes for generated outputs.

No active public leaderboard is bundled with this Hugging Face dataset. For exact reproduction of the original evaluation scripts, use the upstream PosterIQ-Benchmark repository.

Languages

Prompts and annotations are primarily in English (en).

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

An understanding row contains task metadata, prompt text, JSON-encoded answer metadata, and an input image:

{
  "id": "alignment-00000",
  "task": "alignment",
  "subtask": "",
  "name": "000_30_center_.png",
  "path": "alignment/000_30_center_.png",
  "prompt": "Please observe the text alignment...",
  "gt_json": "[\"center-aligned\"]",
  "metadata_json": "{\"alignment\": [\"center-aligned\"]}",
  "image": "<image>",
  "image_path": ".../data/alignment/000_30_center_.png"
}

A generation row contains the prompt and metadata only:

{
  "id": "gen_dense-00000",
  "task": "poster dense",
  "subtask": "",
  "name": "1000.jpg",
  "path": "dense/1000.jpg",
  "prompt": "NBA Pinnacle Night...",
  "gt_json": "[\"Aspect ratio 2:3...\"]",
  "metadata_json": "{\"theme\": \"NBA\", \"elements\": [[\"Kevin Durant\", \"Klay Thompson\"]]}"
}

Data Fields

• —id (string): Stable row identifier generated as {config}-{index:05d}.
• —task (string): Upstream task name.
• —subtask (string, configs where present): Upstream subtask label.
• —name (string): Upstream file name.
• —path (string): Upstream relative path, normalized to POSIX separators.
• —prompt (string): Model prompt for the task.
• —gt_json (string, only configs with gt): JSON-encoded upstream ground-truth field.
• —metadata_json (string): JSON-encoded source fields not represented as standard columns.
• —image (Image, understanding configs): Input poster image.
• —image_path (string, understanding configs): Local resolved image path.
• —original_image (Image, poster_ocr and text_localization): Original-resolution poster image.
• —original_image_path (string, poster_ocr and text_localization): Local resolved original image path.

Data Splits

All configurations expose a single test split because PosterIQ is an evaluation dataset and the upstream release does not provide training partitions.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

PosterIQ was created to evaluate poster understanding and generation from a design perspective rather than relying only on general visual recognition or generic image-generation criteria.

Source Data

The upstream Hugging Face dataset provides task JSON files under und_task/ and gen_task/. The data.zip archive contains the 7,765 images referenced by the understanding tasks. Generation tasks provide prompts and metadata for evaluating generated poster outputs.

Annotations

Rows contain task-specific ground truth or target metadata from the upstream release. This loader keeps task-specific fields in metadata_json to avoid forcing heterogeneous task schemas into a single lossy structure.

Personal and Sensitive Information

The dataset consists of poster images, poster-generation prompts, and design-task annotations. The dataset card does not identify personal information in the released benchmark. Posters may include names, brands, events, or culturally specific text as part of graphic design examples.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

PosterIQ can support more design-aware evaluation of poster understanding and generation systems, especially typography, OCR, layout, composition, and style control.

Discussion of Biases

Poster design conventions, language use, typography, and style labels reflect the upstream data creation process and may not cover all cultures, domains, accessibility needs, or professional design contexts equally.

Other Known Limitations

Generation configurations do not include generated images in the upstream release. They provide prompts and evaluation metadata for systems that generate their own outputs.

Additional Information

Dataset Curators

The original PosterIQ dataset was created by Yuheng Feng, Wen Zhang, Haodong Duan, and Xingxing Zou.

Licensing Information

The upstream Hugging Face dataset card declares non-commercial-research-license with license: other. The upstream LICENSE file is empty at the time this loader was created, so users should consult the original dataset page and repository before redistribution or commercial use.
