Diffusion model MultiShadow generates realistic shadows for multiple objects

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new diffusion model called MultiShadow, designed to generate realistic shadows for multiple objects within a single image composite. This method leverages a pre-trained text-to-image diffusion model, incorporating image features for spatial guidance and text prompts to encode object positions. An attention-alignment loss further refines the shadow placement. The approach has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in both single and multi-object shadow generation scenarios, addressing a gap in current compositing techniques. AI

IMPACT Enhances realism in image compositing by enabling more accurate shadow generation for multiple objects.

    MultiShadow: Multi-Object Shadow Generation for Image Compositing via Diffusion Model

    arXiv:2603.02743v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Realistic shadow generation is crucial for achieving seamless image compositing, yet existing methods primarily focus on single-object insertion and often fail to generalize when multiple foreground objects are composited into a…
