• Title: End-to-End Visual Editing with a Generatively Pre-Trained Artist
• Authors: Andrew Brown, Cheng-Yang Fu, Omkar Parkhi, Tamara L. Berg, Andrea Vedaldi
• Abstract summary: We consider the targeted image editing problem: blending a region in a source image with a driver image that specifies the desired change. We propose a self-supervised approach that simulates edits by augmenting off-the-shelf images in a target domain. We show that different blending effects can be learned by an intuitive control of the augmentation process, with no other changes required to the model architecture.

• Abstract: We consider the targeted image editing problem: blending a region in a source image with a driver image that specifies the desired change. Differently from prior works, we solve this problem by learning a conditional probability distribution of the edits, end-to-end. Training such a model requires addressing a fundamental technical challenge: the lack of example edits for training. To this end, we propose a self-supervised approach that simulates edits by augmenting off-the-shelf images in a target domain. The benefits are remarkable: implemented as a state-of-the-art auto-regressive transformer, our approach is simple, sidesteps difficulties with previous methods based on GAN-like priors, obtains significantly better edits, and is efficient. Furthermore, we show that different blending effects can be learned by an intuitive control of the augmentation process, with no other changes required to the model architecture. We demonstrate the superiority of this approach across several datasets in extensive quantitative and qualitative experiments, including human studies, significantly outperforming prior work.

  Diffusion models have revolutionized the field of content synthesis and editing. Recent models have replaced the traditional UNet architecture with the Diffusion Transformer (DiT) We propose an automatic method to identify "vital layers" within DiT, crucial for image formation. Next, to enable real-image editing, we introduce an improved image inversion method for flow models.

  Some supervised methods require huge amounts of paired training data, which greatly limits their usages. The other unsupervised methods take full advantage of large-scale pre-trained priors, thus being strictly restricted to the domains where the priors are trained on and behaving badly in out-of-distribution cases. In our proposed framework, a novel few-shot learning mechanism based on the directional transformations among samples is introduced and expands the learnable space exponentially.

We propose a novel operation planning algorithm to generate possible editing sequences from the target image as pseudo ground truth.
