Researchers have developed SC-Diff, a novel diffusion model designed for translating visible images into infrared representations. This framework enhances semantic consistency by calibrating self-attention mechanisms within the denoising network using semantic maps derived from a SAM3 model. The SC-Diff method adaptively adjusts attention biases based on category and attention dispersion, aiming to reduce cross-category interference while preserving global context. Experiments indicate that SC-Diff improves the quality of generated infrared images and yields more effective synthetic data for downstream tasks like infrared object detection. AI
