Researchers have developed RIDGE, a new inversion-free and training-free method for image editing that uses internal dynamic guidance. This approach re-noises an evolving approximation of the target state, allowing the displacement between source and target states to contract naturally with increasing noise levels. RIDGE focuses guidance on regions needing modification during early high-noise steps using a soft dynamic mask derived internally from the model. Experiments using SD3 Medium and FLUX.1-dev models demonstrate that RIDGE achieves a favorable balance between source preservation, target alignment, and perceptual quality. AI
