DATA COLLECTION PLATFORM FOR MULTI-TURN TEXT-TO-IMAGE PREFERENCE LEARNING

Introduction
Human-in-the-loop generative AI systems increasingly rely on interaction data to improve prompting, alignment, and personalization. A platform that captures multi-turn user intent, revised prompts, generated outputs, and user preferences can support research on adaptive text-to-image assistance.
Objectives
· Design and develop an online data-collection platform with for multi-turn text-to-image interactions.
· Capture user interactions, prompt revisions, topic labels, and preference signals.
· Prepare the collected data for future optimization of prompt-rewriting or personalization models.
Tasks
1. Literature Review: Preference data collection, prompt optimization, human-in-the-loop generative AI.
2. System Design: Define the session flow, user accounts, consent, logging schema, ML backend, and storage model.
3. Implementation: Build a web-based platform where users submit prompts, inspect optimized prompts, view generated images, and continue or stop a session.
4. Annotation Schema: Collect topic labels, preference judgments, and interaction outcomes.
5. Pilot Study: Run a small user study and analyze data quality and usage patterns.
6. Optional Extension: Add continual learning for adaptive user personalization.
Pre-requisites
Web development, Python, Databases, Interest in HCI/AI.
