Paint-Anything: Unified Any-Color Control for Image Generation and Editing

Paint-Anything introduces a unified hex-prompt interface that allows users to specify any 24‑bit hex color for both image generation and editing. The method trains on a new Paint‑500K dataset created from real images with object grounding, perceptual color labeling, and editing‑pair synthesis, and supplements this with pure‑color anchors to address shadow‑induced color inaccuracies. Evaluated on the newly proposed Any Color Benchmark (ACBench), Paint‑Anything achieves significant improvements over the base FLUX.2‑4B model, boosting T2I and editing scores by 85.3 % and 28.3 % respectively, and outperforms competing methods on the CompColor metric.

MegaStyle++: Scaling Image Style Space through Hierarchical Style Definition

MegaStyle++ introduces a hierarchical definition of image style, ranging from overall style identity to fine‑grained visual attributes, to provide a more structured, transferable, and interpretable representation. Using this definition, the authors refined the MegaStyle annotation pipeline and released MegaStyle++‑8M, a dataset with 150K style identities, 1M fine‑grained prompts, and 8M stylized images. Analyses show that the hierarchical approach expands style diversity and semantic breadth while accurately capturing the intrinsic visual style of reference images.

SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B‑MoT native unified multimodal model that can understand, reason about, and generate visual content without using an encoder or VAE. It improves visual fidelity and text rendering through spatially coherent patch reconstruction, large‑scale training on curated generation and editing data, and native resolutions up to 4K. Post‑training, specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing are optimized and distilled into a multi‑expert framework, yielding advances in image fidelity, complex composition, multi‑reference editing, and instruction following.
