Tuning-Free Inversion-Enhanced Control for Consistent Image Editing

Consistent editing of real images is a challenging task, as it requires performing non-rigid edits (e.g., changing postures) to the main objects in the input image without changing their identity or attributes. To guarantee consistent attributes, some existing methods fine-tune the entire model or the textual embedding for structural consistency, but they are time-consuming and fail to perform non-rigid edits. Other works are tuning-free, but their performances are weakened by the quality of Denoising Diffusion Implicit Model (DDIM) reconstruction, which often fails in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we present a novel approach called Tuning-free Inversion-enhanced Control (TIC), which directly correlates features from the inversion process with those from the sampling process to mitigate the inconsistency in DDIM reconstruction. Specifically, our method effectively obtains inversion features from the key and value features in the self-attention layers, and enhances the sampling process by these inversion features, thus achieving accurate reconstruction and content-consistent editing. To extend the applicability of our method to general editing scenarios, we also propose a mask-guided attention concatenation strategy that combines contents from both the inversion and the naive DDIM editing processes. Experiments show that the proposed method outperforms previous works in reconstruction and consistent editing, and produces impressive results in various settings.

Heuristic Domain Adaptation

In visual domain adaptation (DA), separating the domain-specific characteristics from the domain-invariant representations is an ill-posed problem. Existing methods apply different kinds of priors or directly minimize the domain discrepancy to address this problem, which lack flexibility in handling real-world situations. Another research pipeline expresses the domain-specific information as a gradual transferring process, which tends to be suboptimal in accurately removing the domain-specific properties. In this paper, we address the modeling of domain-invariant and domain-specific information from the heuristic search perspective. We identify the characteristics in the existing representations that lead to larger domain discrepancy as the heuristic representations. With the guidance of heuristic representations, we formulate a principled framework of Heuristic Domain Adaptation (HDA) with well-founded theoretical guarantees. To perform HDA, the cosine similarity scores and independence measurements between domain-invariant and domain-specific representations are cast into the constraints at the initial and final states during the learning procedure. Similar to the final condition of heuristic search, we further derive a constraint enforcing the final range of heuristic network output to be small. Accordingly, we propose Heuristic Domain Adaptation Network (HDAN), which explicitly learns the domain-invariant and domain-specific representations with the above mentioned constraints. Extensive experiments show that HDAN has exceeded state-of-the-art on unsupervised DA, multi-source DA and semi-supervised DA. The code is available at https: //github. com/cuishuhao/HDA.
