h-Flow framework enables flexible image editing using Doob's h-Transform

Researchers have introduced h-Flow, a novel framework for image editing that leverages Doob's h-Transform to provide a theoretically grounded approach. This method reformulates editing as conditional generation, balancing source image consistency with target prompt alignment. By extending the h-Transform to deterministic reverse diffusion models and employing a velocity orthogonal decomposition, h-Flow allows for controllable trade-offs between reconstruction and semantic editing, demonstrating effectiveness across various scenarios.

    h-Flow: Flexible Flow-based Image Editing via Doob's h-Transform

    arXiv:2607.10800v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Editing images with pre-trained text-to-image flow models typically requires carefully balancing target alignment with the desired prompt and source consistency with the original image. Existing approaches either rely on inversion-b…
