Large-scale visual generators are increasingly capable but costly to train, fine-tune, and deploy. We introduce Mage-Flow, a compact 4B-scale generative stack for efficient text-to-image generation and instruction-based image editing.

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. Existing training-free editors either localize edits from terminal predictions under source and target prompts or preserve unrelated content through spatially unselective source-feature reuse without explicit region discovery.
Large-scale text-to-image models are attractive backbones for dense prediction because RGB generation pretraining learns rich semantic, structural, and geometric priors. Existing generative and editing approaches reuse these priors by casting dense prediction as target generation: annotations such as depth, normals, alpha mattes, masks, and heatmaps are encoded into an RGB-trained VAE latent space and decoded back as image-like targets.
