• Title: EraseDraw: Learning to Insert Objects by Erasing Them from Images
• Authors: Alper Canberk, Maksym Bondarenko, Ege Ozguroglu, Ruoshi Liu, Carl Vondrick,
• Abstract summary: Prior works often fail by making global changes to the image, inserting objects in unrealistic spatial locations, and generating inaccurate lighting details. We observe that while state-of-the-art models perform poorly on object insertion, they can remove objects and erase the background in natural images very well. We show compelling results on diverse insertion prompts and images across various domains.

• Abstract: Creative processes such as painting often involve creating different components of an image one by one. Can we build a computational model to perform this task? Prior works often fail by making global changes to the image, inserting objects in unrealistic spatial locations, and generating inaccurate lighting details. We observe that while state-of-the-art models perform poorly on object insertion, they can remove objects and erase the background in natural images very well. Inverting the direction of object removal, we obtain high-quality data for learning to insert objects that are spatially, physically, and optically consistent with the surroundings. With this scalable automatic data generation pipeline, we can create a dataset for learning object insertion, which is used to train our proposed text conditioned diffusion model. Qualitative and quantitative experiments have shown that our model achieves state-of-the-art results in object insertion, particularly for in-the-wild images. We show compelling results on diverse insertion prompts and images across various domains.In addition, we automate iterative insertion by combining our insertion model with beam search guided by CLIP.

  Generative models have become a powerful tool for image editing tasks, including object insertion. In this paper, we focus on creating a location model dedicated to identifying realistic object locations. Specifically, we train an autoregressive model that generates bounding box coordinates, conditioned on the background image and the desired object class. This formulation allows to effectively handle sparse placement annotations and to incorporate implausible locations into a preference dataset by performing direct preference optimization.

  We propose a training-free method, dubbed DiffUHaul, for the object dragging task. We first apply attention masking in each denoising step to make the generation more disentangled across different objects. In the early denoising steps, we interpolate the attention features between source and target images to smoothly fuse new layouts with the original appearance.

  Instance segmentation datasets play a crucial role in training accurate and robust computer vision models. We show how this issue can be mitigated by starting with small annotated instance segmentation datasets and augmenting them to obtain a sizeable annotated dataset. We generate new images using a diffusion-based inpainting model to fill out the masked area with a desired object class by guiding the diffusion through the object outline.

  We present a technique to generate a collection of images that depicts variations in the shape of a specific object. A particular challenge when generating object variations is accurately localizing the manipulation applied over the object's shape. To localize the image-space operation, we present two techniques that use the self-attention layers in conjunction with the cross-attention layers.
