GuidedBridge: Training-freely Improving Bridge Models with Prior Guidance
Researchers have developed a new training-free method called Prior Guidance (PG) to enhance the performance of bridge models in generative AI. This technique leverages a weak prior, unseen during pre-training, to improve the model's ability to exploit existing information. The method is further refined with frequency-modulated prior guidance (FMPG) to better align with the generative process, and a cascaded framework (CFG-FMPG) is proposed for image in-painting tasks. Experiments show that these PG methods consistently improve pre-trained bridge models across various image translation tasks. AI
