• Abstract: Image composition in image editing involves merging a foreground image with a background image to create a composite. Inconsistent lighting conditions between the foreground and background often result in unrealistic composites. Image harmonization addresses this challenge by adjusting illumination and color to achieve visually appealing and consistent outputs. In this paper, we present a novel approach for image harmonization by leveraging diffusion models. We conduct a comparative analysis of two conditional diffusion models, namely Classifier-Guidance and Classifier-Free. Our focus is on addressing the challenge of adjusting illumination and color in foreground images to create visually appealing outputs that seamlessly blend with the background. Through this research, we establish a solid groundwork for future investigations in the realm of diffusion model-based image harmonization.

  We introduce Relightful Harmonization, a lighting-aware diffusion model designed to seamlessly harmonize sophisticated lighting effect for the foreground portrait using any background image. Our approach unfolds in three stages. First, we introduce a lighting representation module that allows our diffusion model to encode lighting information from target image background. Second, we introduce an alignment network that aligns lighting features learned from image background with lighting features learned from panorama environment maps.

  We introduce a self-supervised illumination harmonization approach formulated in the intrinsic image domain. First, we estimate a simple global lighting model from mid-level vision representations to generate a rough shading for the foreground region. A network then refines this inferred shading to generate a re-shading that aligns with the background scene.
