Training-free concept erasure is an attractive mechanism for controlling text-to-image diffusion models, but precise erasure often comes at the cost of damaging semantically related non-target concepts. Existing value-space methods remove the component of each cross-attention value along the target concept direction, implicitly treating target identity and shared visual structure as the same signal.

HyperErase introduces a hypernetwork-based framework for concept erasure in text-to-image models, replacing static adapters with prompt-conditioned parameter synthesis. The method maps textual descriptions to LoRA updates, eliminating per-prompt gradient optimization and manual merging. A decoupled rectification strategy further stabilizes and refines the synthesized adapters, yielding improved erasure effectiveness, image quality, and semantic alignment across diverse concepts.

The paper introduces a framework for instruction‑guided 3D editing that does not require paired 3D supervision. It distills visual, semantic, and geometric knowledge from foundation models into a 3D editing model using a differentiable rendering pipeline, guided by a 2D visual prior from an image editing model and a semantic prior from a Vision‑Language Model. A 3D‑aware Distribution Matching regularization is added to prevent geometric collapse and ensure realistic 3D outputs, leading to superior instruction fidelity and cross‑view consistency compared to state‑of‑the‑art baselines.

GRACE is a new framework for concept erasure in text-to-image diffusion models that uses a semantically weighted sensitive subspace to guide localized interventions and lightweight subspace-constrained adapters to avoid global semantic disruption. It replaces manual counterfactual prompts with an automatically decoupled safe-anchor mechanism and controls intervention strength through an energy-driven dynamic gating system. Experiments show GRACE improves NSFW reduction by 17.86% over five state-of-the-art methods while also reducing target CLIP Score and FID, indicating stronger concept suppression with better preservation of generative quality.

arXiv:2607. 21318v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Replacing an object with one that differs in category or shape requires complete source removal, natural target formation unconstrained by the source silhouette, and preservation of unrelated content.

MatReplace is a new reference‑free benchmark for evaluating material replacement in interior scenes, assessing edits on local material correctness, global lighting harmony, outside preservation, and inside structure. It offers three tracks that vary the conditioning signal—instruction only, instruction plus region mask, and material reference image—allowing systematic comparison of different editing approaches. Results show that while closed‑source editors excel at named‑material rendering, grounding materials from pixel references remains a significant challenge.
