The paper introduces a benchmark and evaluation system for measuring how well generative image models preserve the identity of a subject across generation, editing, restoration, and multi‑subject scenarios. It compares three paradigms—input context, trainable subject‑specific parameters, and a persistent identity layer—showing that persistent identity consistently improves fidelity while keeping image quality and instruction adherence high. The study finds that identity preservation remains a distinct limitation of current foundation models, especially under iterative edits, small scales, severe degradation, and multi‑subject composition.

Generating and editing a person's face demands high precision, as even minor modifications can significantly alter a subject's perceived identity. Current personalization and editing methods built on general-purpose text-to-image models, however, often lack the precision required for fine-grained facial edits.

arXiv:2606. 11670v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Subject-preserving video generation is not solved by frontal-face similarity alone: a generated person must remain recognizable across motion, large viewpoint changes, expression shifts, occlusion, scale variation, and conflicts among text, first-frame, and identity references.

The paper introduces a classifier‑free method for generating visual counterfactual explanations (VCEs) using Contrastive Analysis (CA). By separating generative factors common to two datasets from those specific to each class, the approach swaps only the salient factors to produce counterfactual images, thereby avoiding reliance on classifier decision boundaries. Leveraging StyleGAN2’s high‑quality synthesis and a feature‑space latent representation, the method supports multiple salient factors per dataset and achieves superior counterfactual quality on three medical imaging datasets.
