SketchFFusion: Sketch-guided image editing with diffusion model

Weihang Mao, Bo Han, Zihao Wang

Sketch-guided image editing aims to achieve local fine-tuning of the image based on the sketch information provided by the user, while maintaining the original status of the unedited areas. Due to the high cost of acquiring human sketches, previous works mostly relied on edge maps as a substitute for sketches, but sketches possess more rich structural information. In this paper, we propose a sketch generation scheme that can preserve the main contours of an image and closely adhere to the actual sketch style drawn by the user. Simultaneously, current image editing methods often face challenges such as image distortion, training cost, and loss of fine details in the sketch. To address these limitations, We propose a conditional diffusion model (SketchFFusion) based on the sketch structure vector. We evaluate the generative performance of our model and demonstrate that it outperforms existing methods.
