• Authors: Sheng-Yu Wang, David Bau, Jun-Yan Zhu
• Abstract summary: Current machine learning approaches miss a key element of the creative process -- the ability to synthesize things that go far beyond the data distribution and everyday experience. We enable a user to "warp" a given model by editing just a handful of original model outputs with desired geometric changes. Our method allows a user to create a model that synthesizes endless objects with defined geometric changes, enabling the creation of a new generative model without the burden of curating a large-scale dataset.

• Abstract: Deep generative models make visual content creation more accessible to novice users by automating the synthesis of diverse, realistic content based on a collected dataset. However, the current machine learning approaches miss a key element of the creative process -- the ability to synthesize things that go far beyond the data distribution and everyday experience. To begin to address this issue, we enable a user to "warp" a given model by editing just a handful of original model outputs with desired geometric changes. Our method applies a low-rank update to a single model layer to reconstruct edited examples. Furthermore, to combat overfitting, we propose a latent space augmentation method based on style-mixing. Our method allows a user to create a model that synthesizes endless objects with defined geometric changes, enabling the creation of a new generative model without the burden of curating a large-scale dataset. We also demonstrate that edited models can be composed to achieve aggregated effects, and we present an interactive interface to enable users to create new models through composition. Empirical measurements on multiple test cases suggest the advantage of our method against recent GAN fine-tuning methods. Finally, we showcase several applications using the edited models, including latent space interpolation and image editing.

  We propose EditAR, a single unified autoregressive framework for a variety of conditional image generation tasks. The model takes both images and instructions as inputs, and predicts the edited images tokens in a vanilla next-token paradigm. We evaluate its effectiveness across diverse tasks on established benchmarks, showing competitive performance to various state-of-the-art task-specific methods.

  Multifaceted user modeling aims to uncover fine-grained patterns and learn representations from user data. Recent studies on foundation model-based recommendation have emphasized the Transformer architecture's remarkable ability to capture complex, non-linear user-item interaction relationships. We propose a novel Transformer layer designed specifically for recommendation, using the self-attention mechanism to capture sequential user-item interaction patterns.

  Existing personalization methods rely on finetuning a text-to-image foundation model on a user's custom dataset. We propose Joint-Image Diffusion (jedi), an effective technique for learning a finetuning-free personalization model. Our model achieves state-of-the-art generation quality, both quantitatively and qualitatively, significantly outperforming both the prior finetuning-based and finetuning-free personalization baselines.
