FreeStyle: Free Control of Style-Content Dual-Reference Generation from Community LoRA Mining

arXiv:2606. 20506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Style-content dual-reference generation aims to synthesize an image that preserves the structure and semantics of a content reference while adopting the style of a separate style reference.

AuthorMix: Modular Authorship Style Transfer via Layer-wise Adapter Mixing

AuthorMix is a lightweight, modular framework for authorship style transfer that uses layer‑wise adapter mixing. It trains individual style‑specific LoRA adapters on a small set of high‑resource authors, enabling rapid adaptation to new target styles with only a few examples. The method achieves the highest combined style‑meaning score among baselines, including GPT‑5.1, and improves meaning preservation, as confirmed by human evaluation.

Abstract-LoRA: Unlocking Single-Image Style Transfer through Targeted U-Net Block Training

Abstract‑LoRA introduces a lightweight LoRA training approach that targets specific U‑Net blocks in diffusion models to improve single‑image style transfer. By refining block selection, adding more blocks, and using clustering‑based style abstraction, it better disentangles and balances style and content compared to prior methods like B‑LoRA. Experiments show that the method produces more harmonious artistic images while quantitatively preserving both style and content.

Image Generation Based on Image Style Extraction

The paper proposes a three‑stage training method that extracts fine‑grained stylistic representations from a single reference image and injects them into a pretrained generative model without altering its architecture. A style encoder and a style projection layer align these representations with textual cues, enabling controlled stylized image generation. The authors also introduce the Style30k‑captions dataset, which pairs images, style labels, and text descriptions to train the encoder and projection layer.

SafeStyle: Calibrated Style Residual Injection for Controllable Style-Leakage Trade-off in Diffusion Stylization

SafeStyle is a training‑free framework that injects calibrated style residuals into frozen diffusion models for reference‑guided stylization. It estimates style‑supported and content‑associated subspaces from small calibration sets, then transports purified style evidence across adaptive spatial granularity while limiting its influence with a residual‑norm budget. Experiments on texture‑ and geometry‑dominant styles show high DINO style similarity (0.432–0.474) with minimal semantic leakage (0.8%).

VinQA: Visual Elements Interleaved Long-form Answer Generation for Real-World Multimodal Document QA

arXiv:2606. 16092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world documents combine text with tables, charts, photographs, and diagrams arranged in diverse layouts, yet existing research on multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for document QA predominantly produces text-only responses, underutilizing these visual elements.
