Diffusion-Based Image Editing

Facial attribute editing aims to modify target attributes while preserving attribute-irrelevant content and overall image fidelity. Existing GAN-based methods provide favorable controllability, but often suffer from weak alignment between style codes and attribute semantics. Diffusion-based methods can synthesize highly realistic images; however, their editing precision is limited by the entanglement of semantic directions among different attributes. In this paper, we propose AttDiff-GAN, a hybrid framework that combines GAN-based attribute manipulation with diffusion-based image generation. A key challenge in such integration lies in the inconsistency between one-step adversarial learning and multi-step diffusion denoising, which makes effective optimization difficult. To address this issue, we decouple attribute editing from image synthesis by introducing a feature-level adversarial learning scheme to learn explicit attribute manipulation, and then using the manipulated features to guide the diffusion process for image generation, while also removing the reliance on semantic direction-based editing. Moreover, we enhance style-attribute alignment by introducing PriorMapper, which incorporates facial priors into style generation, and RefineExtractor, which captures global semantic relationships through a Transformer for more precise style extraction. Experimental results on CelebA-HQ show that the proposed method achieves more accurate facial attribute editing and better preservation of non-target attributes than state-of-the-art methods in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations.

Facial attribute editing and style manipulation are crucial for applications like virtual avatars and photo editing. However, achieving precise control over facial attributes without altering unrelated features is challenging due to the complexity of facial structures and the strong correlations between attributes. While conditional GANs have shown progress, they are limited by accuracy issues and training instability. Diffusion models, though promising, face challenges in style manipulation due to the limited expressiveness of semantic directions. In this paper, we propose LatRef-Diff, a novel diffusion-based framework that addresses these limitations. We replace the traditional semantic directions in diffusion models with style codes and propose two methods for generating them: latent and reference guidance. Based on these style codes, we design a style modulation module that integrates them into the target image, enabling both random and customized style manipulation. This module incorporates learnable vectors, cross-attention mechanisms, and a hierarchical design to improve accuracy and image quality. Additionally, to enhance training stability while eliminating the need for paired images (e.g., before and after editing), we propose a forward-backward consistency training strategy. This strategy first removes the target attribute approximately using image-specific semantic directions and then restores it via style modulation, guided by perceptual and classification losses. Extensive experiments on CelebA-HQ demonstrate that LatRef-Diff achieves state-of-the-art performance in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations. Ablation studies validate the effectiveness of our model's design choices.

We present MMCORE, a unified framework designed for multimodal image generation and editing. MMCORE leverages a pre-trained Vision-Language Model (VLM) to predict semantic visual embeddings via learnable query tokens, which subsequently serve as conditioning signals for a diffusion model. This streamlined design effectively transfers the rich understanding and reasoning capabilities of VLMs into the visual generation process. By obviating the need for deep fusion between autoregressive and diffusion models or training from scratch, MMCORE significantly reduces computational overhead while maintaining high-fidelity synthesis. MMCORE seamlessly integrates text-to-image synthesis with interleaved image generation, demonstrating robust multimodal comprehension in complex scenarios such as spatial reasoning and visual grounding. Comprehensive evaluations indicate that MMCORE consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across a broad spectrum of text-to-image and single/multi-image editing benchmarks.

Common image editing tasks typically adopt powerful generative diffusion models as the leading paradigm for real-world content editing. Meanwhile, although reinforcement learning (RL) methods such as Diffusion-DPO and Flow-GRPO have further improved generation quality, efficiently applying Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to diffusion-based editing remains largely unexplored, due to a lack of scalable human-preference datasets and frameworks tailored to diverse editing needs. To fill this gap, we propose HP-Edit, a post-training framework for Human Preference-aligned Editing, and introduce RealPref-50K, a real-world dataset across eight common tasks and balancing common object editing. Specifically, HP-Edit leverages a small amount of human-preference scoring data and a pretrained visual large language model (VLM) to develop HP-Scorer--an automatic, human preference-aligned evaluator. We then use HP-Scorer both to efficiently build a scalable preference dataset and to serve as the reward function for post-training the editing model. We also introduce RealPref-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating real-world editing performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach significantly enhances models such as Qwen-Image-Edit-2509, aligning their outputs more closely with human preference.

Scene text editing (STE) has achieved remarkable progress in accurately rendering target text through diffusion-based methods. However, we identify a critical yet overlooked problem: edit spillover -- when editing a target text region, existing methods inadvertently modify non-target regions, particularly neighboring text. Through systematic evaluation on 50 real-world scenes across four categories, we reveal that state-of-the-art diffusion editing models exhibit a spillover rate of 94%, meaning nearly all non-target text regions are altered during editing. To address this, we propose the Edit Fidelity Field (EFF), a semantics-aware continuous field that controls per-pixel editing fidelity. Unlike binary masks, EFF leverages OCR-detected text regions to construct a four-zone field: Edit Core (fully editable), Transition Zone (smooth decay), Protected Zone (non-target text, explicitly locked), and Background (strictly preserved). EFF operates as a training-free, model-agnostic post-processing module applicable to any diffusion-based STE method. We further propose per-region spillover quantification, a novel evaluation protocol that measures edit leakage at each non-target text region individually. Experiments demonstrate that EFF reduces spillover rate from 94% to 25% while improving non-target region preservation by +91.4 dB PSNR.

Tone style transfer for photo retouching aims to adapt the stylistic tone of the reference image to a given content image. However, the lack of high-quality large-scale triplet datasets with stylized ground truth forces existing methods to rely on self-supervised or proxy objectives, which limits model capability. To mitigate this gap, we design a data construction pipeline to build TST100K, a large-scale dataset of 100,000 content-reference-stylized triplets. At the core of this pipeline, we train a tone style scorer to ensure strict stylistic consistency for each triplet. In addition, existing methods typically extract content and reference features independently and then fuse them in a decoder, which may cause semantic loss and lead to inappropriate color transfer and degraded visual aesthetics. Instead, we propose ICTone, a diffusion-based framework that performs tone transfer in an in-context manner by jointly conditioning on both images, leveraging the semantic priors of generative models for semantic-aware transfer. Reward feedback learning using the tone style scorer is further incorporated to improve stylistic fidelity and visual quality. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of TST100K, and ICTone achieves state-of-the-art performance on both quantitative metrics and human evaluations.

Text-guided image editing, a pivotal task in modern multimedia content creation, has seen remarkable progress with training-free methods that eliminate the need for additional optimization. Despite recent progress, existing methods are typically constrained by a competitive paradigm in which the editing and reconstruction branches are independently driven by their respective objectives to maximize alignment with target and source prompts. The adversarial strategy causes semantic conflicts and unpredictable outcomes due to the lack of coordination between branches. To overcome these issues, we propose Coopetitive Training-Free Image Editing (CoEdit), a novel zero-shot framework that transforms attention control from competition to coopetitive negotiation, achieving editing harmony across spatial and temporal dimensions. Spatially, CoEdit introduces Dual-Entropy Attention Manipulation, which quantifies directional entropic interactions between branches to reformulate attention control as a harmony-maximization problem, eventually improving the localization of editable and preservable regions. Temporally, we present Entropic Latent Refinement mechanism to dynamically adjust latent representations over time, minimizing accumulated editing errors and ensuring consistent semantic transitions throughout the denoising trajectory. Additionally, we propose the Fidelity-Constrained Editing Score, a composite metric that jointly evaluates semantic editing and background fidelity. Extensive experiments on standard benchmarks demonstrate that CoEdit achieves superior performance in both editing quality and structural preservation, enhancing multimedia information utilization by enabling more effective interaction between visual and textual modalities. The code will be available at https://github.com/JinhaoShen/CoEdit.

Industrial anomaly inspection requires complementary capabilities: explaining an observed defect, localizing its pixels, and synthesizing a controlled edit. We present IAD-Unify, a unified architecture connecting a multimodal language model (MLLM), dense visual expert, and diffusion editor through task-specific token interfaces. A multi-reference DINOv2 pathway forms a dense anomaly field and compresses its 1,369 cells into 81 structured evidence tokens. Qwen3.5 consumes these tokens for grounded answers and, with 32 task tokens, converts them into a semantic residual over the dense mask. A separate 256-query interface resamples Qwen states into Stable Diffusion's complete cross-attention context, while the editor retains its source latent and hard-mask inputs. The task pathways share one Qwen adaptation without forcing every task through the same visual bottleneck; in particular, evidence tokens are excluded from the generation pathway. Staged optimization initializes dense evidence, aligns it with language, calibrates segmentation, and then pretrains and specializes the diffusion editor while preserving earlier capabilities. We also construct Anomaly Evidence over 54,501 deduplicated industrial images. Its quality-controlled Anomaly Evidence Compiler and Industrial Edit-Pair Compiler produce family-disjoint, validated supervision through independent geometry, semantic-grounding, and edit-consistency checks. This design provides one fixed shared parameter set for understanding, segmentation, and localized generation without conflating their inputs, supervision, or outputs. The resulting model reaches 73.02% MMAD Macro$_7$, the highest listed public segmentation AP average (57.10%) with one reference, and the lowest Controlled masked DINO distance (0.3765), with complementary strengths across reasoning, pixel ranking, and semantic edit fidelity.

Recent advances in Virtual Try-On (VTON) and Virtual Try-Off (VTOFF) have greatly improved photo-realistic fashion synthesis and garment reconstruction. However, existing datasets remain static, lacking instruction-driven editing for controllable and interactive fashion generation. In this work, we introduce the Dress Editing Dataset (Dress-ED), the first large-scale benchmark that unifies VTON, VTOFF, and text-guided garment editing within a single framework. Each sample in Dress-ED includes an in-shop garment image, the corresponding person image wearing the garment, their edited counterparts, and a natural-language instruction of the desired modification. Built through a fully automated multimodal pipeline that integrates MLLM-based garment understanding, diffusion-based editing, and LLM-guided verification, Dress-ED comprises over 146k verified quadruplets spanning three garment categories and seven edit types, including both appearance (e.g., color, pattern, material) and structural (e.g., sleeve length, neckline) modifications. Based on this benchmark, we further propose a unified multimodal diffusion framework that jointly reasons over linguistic instructions and visual garment cues, serving as a strong baseline for instruction-driven VTON and VTOFF.

Leveraging the priors of 2D diffusion models for 3D editing has emerged as a promising paradigm. However, multi-view consistency remains challenging in edited results, and the extreme scarcity of paired 3D-consistent editing data makes supervised fine-tuning (SFT) impractical, despite its effectiveness for editing tasks. In this paper, we observe that, while generating multi-view consistent 3D content is highly challenging, verifying 3D consistency is tractable, naturally positioning reinforcement learning (RL) as a feasible solution. Motivated by this, we propose RL3DEdit, a single-pass framework driven by RL optimization with novel rewards derived from the 3D foundation model, VGGT. Specifically, we leverage VGGT's robust priors learned from massive real-world data, feed the edited images into it, and utilize the output confidence maps and pose estimation errors as reward signals, effectively anchoring the 2D editing priors onto a 3D-consistent manifold via RL. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RL3DEdit achieves stable multi-view consistency and outperforms state-of-the-art methods in editing quality with high efficiency. To promote the development of 3D editing, we will release the code and model.

Visual analogy learning enables image editing via demonstration rather than textual description, allowing users to specify complex transformations difficult to articulate in words. Given a triplet $\{\mathbf{a}$, $\mathbf{a}'$, $\mathbf{b}\}$, the goal is to generate $\mathbf{b}'$ such that $\mathbf{a} : \mathbf{a}' :: \mathbf{b} : \mathbf{b}'$. Recent methods adapt text-to-image models with a single Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) module, but they face a fundamental limitation: attempting to capture the diverse space of visual transformations within a fixed module constrains generalization. Inspired by recent work showing that LoRAs in constrained domains span meaningful, interpolatable semantic spaces, we propose LoRWeB, which specializes the model for each analogy task in a single inference pass. LoRWeB dynamically composes learned transformation primitives, informally, choosing a point in a "space of LoRAs". We introduce two key components: (1) a learnable basis of LoRAs to span the space of different visual transformations, and (2) a lightweight encoder that dynamically weighs these basis LoRAs given the input analogy pair. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate state-of-the-art performance and significantly improved generalization to unseen transformations. Our findings suggest LoRA basis decompositions are a promising direction for flexible visual manipulation tasks. See https://research.nvidia.com/labs/par/lorweb for code.

Diffusion model advances have enabled powerful text-guided image editing, but also raise ethical and legal risks such as deepfakes and unauthorized use. To prevent these risks, adversarial attack-based image immunization has emerged as a promising defense against AI-driven semantic manipulation. Yet, most existing approaches require image-specific optimization or additional neural networks at inference time, hindering scalability and practicality. In this paper, we propose the first universal adversarial perturbation-based image immunization framework that generates a single, image-agnostic adversarial perturbation specifically designed for diffusion-based editing pipelines. Inspired by UAP used in targeted attacks, our method aims to generate a UAP that induces diffusion models to misinterpret the input image as a specific semantic target. Simultaneously, it suppresses original content to misdirect the model's attention during editing, thereby effectively blocking unauthorized edits by overwriting the image's original semantics via the UAP. Extensive experiments show that our method, as the first universal immunization approach, significantly outperforms several baselines in the UAP setting. Notably, despite the inherent difficulty of universal perturbations, our method achieves competitive or superior performance compared to image-specific methods under a more restricted perturbation budget, while also exhibiting strong black-box transferability across diverse diffusion models.

We revisit diffusion-based generation for structured visual content and identify a fundamental limitation of existing approaches: foreground preservation and background stylization are typically enforced through external interventions, such as hard masking or corrective post-processing, rather than arising from the generative process itself. Here, we define background as the generative content outside designated foreground regions (e.g., text and layout elements), while preserving the structural integrity of the foreground. We propose a dynamical systems perspective on diffusion, in which controllable generation is formulated as trajectory shaping in latent space. Under this view, we introduce Auxiliary Context Diffusion (ACD), a state-space control framework that integrates heterogeneous signals (layout-derived foreground indicators, document summaries, and style representations) directly into the diffusion dynamics. This formulation induces time-scale separation in the generative process, where foreground regions become dynamically stabilized while background regions remain expressive. To address stylistic drift across multi-page documents, we further introduce style directions as persistent latent constraints that guide diffusion trajectories within a shared stylistic subspace. Unlike prior approaches that entangle style with prompt conditioning, our formulation enables reusable and consistent style control across pages. We validate the proposed perspective through controlled experiments on synthetic document benchmarks, demonstrating that trajectory-level control provides a unified and extensible mechanism for structured generation without retraining, hard masking, or corrective post-processing. These results suggest a new direction for controllable diffusion in document-centric and multimodal applications.

Recent breakthroughs of transformer-based diffusion models, particularly with Multimodal Diffusion Transformers (MMDiT) driven models like FLUX and Qwen Image, have facilitated thrilling experiences in visual generation. However, these models rely only on the interactions between textual conditions and visual features to produce semantically aligned images. Once the interactions fail to reflect the nuanced compositional structure of the prompt, the generated images might be unsatisfactory. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of how different blocks and their interactions with textual conditions is crucial for better understanding the intrinsic attributes and for enhancing their interactions accordingly to strengthen the prompts adherence. In this paper, we first develop a systematic pipeline to comprehensively investigate each block's functionality by \textit{removing}, \textit{disabling}, and \textit{enhancing} textual hidden-states at corresponding blocks. Our analysis reveals that 1) semantic information appears in earlier blocks and finer details are rendered in later blocks, 2) removing specific blocks is usually less disruptive than disabling text conditions, and 3) enhancing textual conditions in selective blocks improves semantic attributes. Building on these observations, we propose \method, a novel inference-time method for tailoring block-wise textual guidance. Our approach not only improves text-image alignment but also enables a range of downstream applications, including precise editing and inference acceleration. Extensive experiments demonstrated that our method outperforms various baselines and remains flexible across text-to-image generation, image editing, and inference acceleration. Our method improves T2I-Combench from 56.92% to 63.00% and GenEval from 66.42% to 71.63% on SD3.5, without sacrificing synthesis quality.

Object removal must prevent the masked target from reappearing and reconstruct the occluded background with structural and contextual fidelity, rather than merely filling a hole plausibly. Recent dataset-free approaches manipulate the diffusion model's internal self-attention to prevent it from referencing the masked region, yet they fail in two critical ways: (i) they treat the masked region as the sole foreground, misinterpreting non-target objects as background and regenerating them, and (ii) they apply uniform attention constraints without distinguishing diverse background subtypes, leading to textural blurring and structural misalignment. Both failures stem from the absence of explicit background-aware reasoning. We propose EraseLoRA, a dataset-free framework that replaces attention surgery with background-aware reasoning and test-time adaptation. The first stage, Background-aware Foreground Exclusion (BFE), leverages a multimodal large-language model to separate target foreground, non-target foregrounds, and clean background from a single image-mask pair. The second stage, Background-aware Reconstruction with Subtype Aggregation (BRSA), performs test-time optimization that treats inferred background subtypes as complementary pieces, enforcing their consistent integration through reconstruction and alignment objectives without explicit attention intervention. As a model-agnostic plug-in applicable to diverse diffusion backbones, EraseLoRA reconstructs backgrounds at least 23% more faithful to the original scene than previous dataset-free methods while nearly halving unwanted foreground re-generation, and surpasses all dataset-driven approaches in both aspects despite requiring no training data. Code is available at https://shjo-april.github.io/EraseLoRA.

We present a framework for document-centric background generation with multi-page editing and thematic continuity. To ensure text regions remain readable, we employ a latent masking formulation that softly attenuates updates in the diffusion space, inspired by smooth barrier functions in physics and numerical optimization. In addition, we introduce Automated Readability Optimization (ARO), which automatically places semi-transparent, rounded backing shapes behind text regions. ARO determines the minimal opacity needed to satisfy perceptual contrast standards (WCAG 2.2) relative to the underlying background, ensuring readability while maintaining aesthetic harmony without human intervention. Multi-page consistency is maintained through a summarization-and-instruction process, where each page is distilled into a compact representation that recursively guides subsequent generations. This design reflects how humans build continuity by retaining prior context, ensuring that visual motifs evolve coherently across an entire document. Our method further treats a document as a structured composition in which text, figures, and backgrounds are preserved or regenerated as separate layers, allowing targeted background editing without compromising readability. Finally, user-provided prompts allow stylistic adjustments in color and texture, balancing automated consistency with flexible customization. Our training-free framework produces visually coherent, text-preserving, and thematically aligned documents, bridging generative modeling with natural design workflows.

Instruction-based image editing enables natural-language control over visual modifications, yet existing models falter under Instruction-Visual Complexity (IV-Complexity), where intricate instructions meet cluttered or ambiguous scenes. We introduce RePlan (Region-aligned Planning), a plan-then-execute framework that couples a vision-language planner with a diffusion editor. The planner decomposes instructions via step-by-step reasoning and explicitly grounds them to target regions; the editor then applies changes using a training-free attention-region injection mechanism, enabling precise, parallel multi-region edits without iterative inpainting. To strengthen planning, we apply GRPO-based reinforcement learning using 1K instruction-only examples, yielding substantial gains in reasoning fidelity and format reliability. We further present IV-Edit, a benchmark focused on fine-grained grounding and knowledge-intensive edits. Across IV-Complex settings, RePlan consistently outperforms strong baselines trained on far larger datasets, improving regional precision and overall consistency.

Recent diffusion-based image morphing methods typically interpolate inverted latents and reuse limited conditioning signals, which often yields unstable intermediates for heterogeneous endpoint pairs. In particular, (i) feature reuse is usually partial or non-adaptive, leading to abrupt structural changes or over-smoothing, and (ii) text conditions are commonly obtained independently per endpoint and then interpolated, which can introduce incompatible semantics. We present CHIMERA, a novel zero-shot diffusion morphing framework that addresses both issues via inversion-guided denoising with complementary feature reuse and text conditioning. Adaptive Cache Injection (ACI) caches a broader set of multi-scale diffusion features beyond Key-Value-only reuse during DDIM inversion, and re-injects them with layer- and timestep-aware scheduling to stabilize denoising and enable gradual fusion. Semantic Anchor Prompting (SAP) uses a VLM to generate a shared anchor-prompt and anchor-conditioned endpoint prompts, and injects the anchor into cross-attention to improve intermediate semantic coherence. Finally, we propose Global-Local Consistency Score (GLCS), a morphing-oriented metric that jointly captures global domain harmonization and local transition smoothness. Extensive experiments and a user study show that CHIMERA produces smoother and more semantically consistent morphing results than prior methods, while remaining efficient and applicable across diverse diffusion backbones without retraining.

Recent advancements in diffusion and flow models have greatly improved text-based image editing, yet methods that edit images independently often produce geometrically and photometrically inconsistent results across different views of the same scene. Such inconsistencies are particularly problematic for editing of 3D representations such as NeRFs or Gaussian splat models. We propose a training-free guidance framework that enforces multi-view consistency during the image editing process. The key idea is that corresponding points should look similar after editing. To achieve this, we introduce a consistency loss that guides the denoising process toward coherent edits. The framework is flexible and can be combined with widely varying image editing methods, supporting both dense and sparse multi-view editing setups. Experimental results show that our approach significantly improves 3D consistency compared to existing multi-view editing methods. We also show that this increased consistency enables high-quality Gaussian splat editing with sharp details and strong fidelity to user-specified text prompts. Please refer to our project page for video results: https://3d-consistent-editing.github.io/

We propose Lavida-O, a unified Masked Diffusion Model (MDM) for multimodal understanding and generation. Unlike existing multimodal MDMs such as MMaDa and Muddit which only support simple image-level understanding tasks and low-resolution image generation, Lavida-O presents a single framework that enables image-level understanding, object grounding, image editing, and high-resolution (1024px) text-to-image synthesis. Lavida-O incorporates a novel Elastic Mixture-of-Transformers (Elastic-MoT) architecture that couples a lightweight generation branch with a larger understanding branch, supported by token compression, universal text conditioning and stratified sampling for efficient and high-quality generation. Lavida-O further incorporates planning and iterative self-reflection in image generation and editing tasks, seamlessly boosting generation quality with its understanding capabilities. Lavida-O achieves state-of-the-art performance on a wide range of benchmarks including RefCOCO object grounding, GenEval text-to-image generation, and ImgEdit image editing, outperforming existing autoregressive models and continuous diffusion models such as Qwen2.5-VL and FluxKontext-dev, while offering considerable speedup at inference. These advances establish Lavida-O as a new paradigm for scalable multimodal reasoning and generation.

While diffusion models have demonstrated remarkable progress in 2D image generation and editing, extending these capabilities to 3D editing remains challenging, particularly in maintaining multi-view consistency. Classical approaches typically update 3D representations through iterative refinement based on a single editing view. However, these methods often suffer from slow convergence and blurry artifacts caused by cross-view inconsistencies. Recent methods improve efficiency by propagating 2D editing attention features, yet still exhibit fine-grained inconsistencies and failure modes in complex scenes due to insufficient constraints. To address this, we propose \textbf{DisCo3D}, a novel framework that distills 3D consistency priors into a 2D editor. Our method first fine-tunes a 3D generator using multi-view inputs for scene adaptation, then trains a 2D editor through consistency distillation. The edited multi-view outputs are finally optimized into 3D representations via Gaussian Splatting. Experimental results show DisCo3D achieves stable multi-view consistency and outperforms state-of-the-art methods in editing quality.

Diffusion models have recently unlocked new possibilities in editing images of real-world objects. Yet, transforming objects in non-rigid ways, such as modifying poses or applying image-based conditioning, continues to present significant challenges. Retaining the unique identity of objects during these edits is a complex task, and current techniques often fall short of delivering the precision needed for industrial settings, where consistency is non-negotiable. Additionally, adapting diffusion models demands custom training data, which is often unavailable in real-world scenarios. To address these gaps, we present FashionRepose, a novel, training-free pipeline designed to handle non-rigid pose adjustments specifically for the fashion industry. This approach combines pretrained off-the-shelf models to modify the poses of long-sleeve garments while safeguarding their identity and branding characteristics. By adopting a zero-shot methodology, FashionRepose enables near real-time edits, entirely eliminating the requirement for specialized training data. FashionRepose has been deployed for a global fashion firm, OVS, handling more than 30,000 long-sleeve garments.

Fashion image editing aims to modify a person's appearance based on a given instruction. Existing methods require auxiliary tools like segmenters and keypoint extractors, lacking a flexible and unified framework. Moreover, these methods are limited in the variety of clothing types they can handle, as most datasets focus on people in clean backgrounds and only include generic garments such as tops, pants, and dresses. These limitations restrict their applicability in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we first extend an existing dataset for human generation to include a wider range of apparel and more complex backgrounds. This extended dataset features people wearing diverse items such as tops, pants, dresses, skirts, headwear, scarves, shoes, socks, and bags. Additionally, we propose AnyDesign, a diffusion-based method that enables mask-free editing on versatile areas. Users can simply input a human image along with a corresponding prompt in either text or image format. Our approach incorporates Fashion DiT, equipped with a Fashion-Guidance Attention (FGA) module designed to fuse explicit apparel types and CLIP-encoded apparel features. Both Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that our method delivers high-quality fashion editing and outperforms contemporary text-guided fashion editing methods.

The rapid advancement of diffusion models has enabled the generation of high-fidelity images from textual prompts, yet achieving precise, disentangled control over specific attributes remains a significant challenge. A fundamental limitation arises because visual differences between images are often far more descriptive and nuanced than what can be captured through human-crafted text descriptions, which frequently fail to convey fine-grained semantic details. To address this, we introduce ViDiT (Visual Direction Transfer for Diffusion), a framework that expands the editing vocabulary by capturing latent semantics directly from image-edit pairs. ViDiT learns the underlying transformation by optimizing a single, global, and continuous editing direction from a small set of before-and-after'' examples. This optimization process transfers visual changes into the diffusion model's conditioning space, allowing for detailed edits that text alone cannot easily describe. ViDiT operates on a Learn Once'' principle, which completely eliminates the need for model fine-tuning or expensive per-image optimization during inference. Once learned, these continuous directions enable ``Edit Anywhere'' capabilities, allowing users to apply highly disentangled manipulations, such as changes in facial features, animal attributes, or artistic styles, to any image in a zero-shot manner with granular control over the edit intensity. Quantitative and qualitative evaluations demonstrate that ViDiT outperforms existing text-based editing methods in maintaining input faithfulness while achieving precise, scalable attribute control.
