SpecRef: A Fast Training-free Baseline of Specific Reference-Condition Real Image Editing

원문 초록

Text-conditional image editing based on large diffusion generative model has attracted the attention of both the industry and the research community. Most existing methods are non-reference editing, with the user only able to provide a source image and text prompt. However, it restricts user's control over the characteristics of editing outcome. To increase user freedom, we propose a new task called Specific Reference Condition Real Image Editing, which allows user to provide a reference image to further control the outcome, such as replacing an object with a particular one. To accomplish this, we propose a fast baseline method named SpecRef. Specifically, we design a Specific Reference Attention Controller to incorporate features from the reference image, and adopt a mask mechanism to prevent interference between editing and non-editing regions. We evaluate SpecRef on typical editing tasks and show that it can achieve satisfactory performance. The source code is available on https://github.com/jingjiqinggong/specp2p.
