Recent advancements in Automatic Prompt Optimization (APO) for text-to-image generation have streamlined user input while ensuring high-quality image output. However, most APO methods are trained assuming a fixed text-to-image model, which is impractical given the emergence of new models. To address this, we propose a novel task, model-generalized automatic prompt optimization (MGAPO), which trains APO methods on a set of known models to enable generalization to unseen models during testing. MGAPO presents significant challenges. First, we experimentally confirm the suboptimal performance of existing APO methods on unseen models. We then introduce a two-stage prompt optimization method, AP-Adapter. In the first stage, a large language model is used to rewrite the prompts. In the second stage, we propose a novel method to construct an enhanced representation space by leveraging inter-model differences. This space captures the characteristics of multiple domain models, storing them as domain prototypes. These prototypes serve as anchors to adjust prompt representations, enabling generalization to unseen models. The optimized prompt representations are subsequently used to generate conditional representations for controllable image generation. We curate a multi-modal, multi-model dataset that includes multiple diffusion models and their corresponding text-image data, and conduct experiments under a model generalization setting. The experimental results demonstrate the AP-Adapter's ability to enable the automatic prompts to generalize well to previously unseen diffusion models, generating high-quality images.
