Differentially Private Paired Table-Image Multimodal Synthesis

Differentially private (DP) synthesis has been extensively studied for tabular and image data separately, yet many real-world datasets contain images paired with multivariate tabular records. Synthesizing such data is particularly challenging under DP, as the two modalities favor different private learning mechanisms while their dependence must also be preserved. To address this challenge, we propose DP-TabImage, a modality-specialized framework for private paired synthesis. DP-TabImage instantiates the factorization $p(x,y)=p_T(y)p_I(x\;|\;y)$ using a private Probabilistic Graphical Model for the multivariate table distribution and a table-conditioned diffusion model trained with DP-SGD for the conditional image distribution. To facilitate conditional learning under clipped and noisy gradients, we further pretrain the model on private table-image prototypes, pairing privately constructed attribute-conditioned images with tabular vectors derived from the already private tabular model at no additional privacy cost. Experiments on three real-world datasets show that DP-TabImage achieves a strong balance among tabular fidelity, image fidelity, and cross-modal alignment. Our analysis further reveals that visual warm-up primarily improves marginal image fidelity, whereas aligned table-image warm-up is critical for improving cross-modal correspondence.

GarmentWeaver: Schema-Aware Structured Synthesis for Multimodal Sewing Patterns

Multimodal Sewing pattern generation aims to infer executable sewing patterns from design cues such as sketches and textual descriptions. As an interpretable and simulation-compatible representation, sewing patterns are particularly valuable for digital garment creation. However, existing methods often model garment specifications as flat long sequences, which entangles garment structure with detailed parameters and leads to redundant components, inaccurate local details, and poor simulation compatibility. In this paper, we present GarmentWeaver, a schema-aware framework for multimodal Sewing pattern generation. GarmentWeaver constructs compact hierarchical targets by activating garment-relevant structural branches and predicts executable Sewing patterns in a structured manner. Specifically, we introduce a schema-aware target construction strategy, build the generator on top of a pretrained vision-language model for multimodal garment understanding, and impose feasibility-aware regularization to encourage structurally valid and simulation-compatible outputs. Extensive experiments show that GarmentWeaver produces more accurate and more executable sewing patterns than strong baselines, while also yielding better simulation results. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of schema-aware structured generation for reliable multimodal Sewing pattern prediction.
