• Title: Improving In-Context Learning in Diffusion Models with Visual Context-Modulated Prompts
• Abstract summary: We introduce improved Prompt Diffusion (iPromptDiff) in this study. iPromptDiff integrates an end-to-end trained vision encoder that converts visual context into an embedding vector. We show that a diffusion-based vision foundation model, when equipped with this visual context-modulated text guidance and a standard ControlNet structure, exhibits versatility and robustness across a variety of training tasks.

• Abstract: In light of the remarkable success of in-context learning in large language models, its potential extension to the vision domain, particularly with visual foundation models like Stable Diffusion, has sparked considerable interest. Existing approaches in visual in-context learning frequently face hurdles such as expensive pretraining, limiting frameworks, inadequate visual comprehension, and limited adaptability to new tasks. In response to these challenges, we introduce improved Prompt Diffusion (iPromptDiff) in this study. iPromptDiff integrates an end-to-end trained vision encoder that converts visual context into an embedding vector. This vector is subsequently used to modulate the token embeddings of text prompts. We show that a diffusion-based vision foundation model, when equipped with this visual context-modulated text guidance and a standard ControlNet structure, exhibits versatility and robustness across a variety of training tasks and excels in in-context learning for novel vision tasks, such as normal-to-image or image-to-line transformations. The effectiveness of these capabilities relies heavily on a deep visual understanding, which is achieved through relevant visual demonstrations processed by our proposed in-context learning architecture.
