SR-Edit: Region-Aware Image Editing via Self-Refinement

SR-Edit is a new image editing framework that uses iterative self‑refinement to improve fidelity. At each step it extracts precise, self‑consistent region separations from the model’s predictions and then enforces preservation in non‑edit areas with correction updates that stay aligned with the original sampling dynamics. Experiments show that SR‑Edit delivers better preservation and overall image quality than existing editing techniques.

Overpainting: Localized Context-aware Diffusion Image Editing

The paper introduces "overpainting," a localized, context-aware image editing technique that allows users to specify precise or loose editing regions via a trimap. The method adapts a pretrained diffusion model with joint attention and low‑rank adaptation, incorporating attention‑dropout to balance noise, source, and mask inputs. An automated pipeline generates training data by pairing images from language‑based editing models, curating them, and extracting trimaps, enabling the model to perform a wide range of editing tasks.

Diffusion Editing with Soft Mask: Pixel Level Redo of Image and Video with Adjustable Strength

Diffusion Editing with Soft Mask: Pixel Level Redo of Image and Video with Adjustable Strength introduces SoftPaint, a zero‑shot sampling method that uses soft masks to provide continuous, pixel‑level control over edits in diffusion models. The approach employs a Langevin‑iteration sampler that respects per‑pixel mask strengths, enabling smooth edits from preserving to fully re‑synthesizing content across image and video backbones. SoftPaint is gradient‑free, memory‑efficient, and works universally with existing diffusion models.

Refinement Is Inherently Editable: Training-Free Prompt-to-Prompt Image Editing with Generative Refinement Network

RefineEdit is a training‑free prompt‑to‑prompt image editing framework that uses a Generative Refinement Network to edit images by refining binary image codes. It couples edit localization with content generation, selecting editable positions based on signed probability differences between an editing branch and a source branch, and stabilizes edits with adaptive spatial freezing and finite bit locking. The method requires no additional training, external masks, or attention control, and outperforms other methods on PIE‑Bench in background‑preservation metrics and CLIP scores.
