ProtoDiffusion: Classifier-Free Diffusion Guidance with Prototype Learning
Authors:Gulcin Baykal, Halil Faruk Karagoz, Taha Binhuraib, Gozde Unal
Diffusion models are generative models that have shown significant advantages compared to other generative models in terms of higher generation quality and more stable training. However, the computational need for training diffusion models is considerably increased. In this work, we incorporate prototype learning into diffusion models to achieve high generation quality faster than the original diffusion model. Instead of randomly initialized class embeddings, we use separately learned class prototypes as the conditioning information to guide the diffusion process. We observe that our method, called ProtoDiffusion, achieves better performance in the early stages of training compared to the baseline method, signifying that using the learned prototypes shortens the training time. We demonstrate the performance of ProtoDiffusion using various datasets and experimental settings, achieving the best performance in shorter times across all settings.

SDXL: Improving Latent Diffusion Models for High-Resolution Image Synthesis
Authors:Dustin Podell, Zion English, Kyle Lacey, Andreas Blattmann, Tim Dockhorn, Jonas Müller, Joe Penna, Robin Rombach
We present SDXL, a latent diffusion model for text-to-image synthesis. Compared to previous versions of Stable Diffusion, SDXL leverages a three times larger UNet backbone: The increase of model parameters is mainly due to more attention blocks and a larger cross-attention context as SDXL uses a second text encoder. We design multiple novel conditioning schemes and train SDXL on multiple aspect ratios. We also introduce a refinement model which is used to improve the visual fidelity of samples generated by SDXL using a post-hoc image-to-image technique. We demonstrate that SDXL shows drastically improved performance compared the previous versions of Stable Diffusion and achieves results competitive with those of black-box state-of-the-art image generators. In the spirit of promoting open research and fostering transparency in large model training and evaluation, we provide access to code and model weights at https://github.com/Stability-AI/generative-models

Prompting Diffusion Representations for Cross-Domain Semantic Segmentation
Authors:Rui Gong, Martin Danelljan, Han Sun, Julio Delgado Mangas, Luc Van Gool
While originally designed for image generation, diffusion models have recently shown to provide excellent pretrained feature representations for semantic segmentation. Intrigued by this result, we set out to explore how well diffusion-pretrained representations generalize to new domains, a crucial ability for any representation. We find that diffusion-pretraining achieves extraordinary domain generalization results for semantic segmentation, outperforming both supervised and self-supervised backbone networks. Motivated by this, we investigate how to utilize the model’s unique ability of taking an input prompt, in order to further enhance its cross-domain performance. We introduce a scene prompt and a prompt randomization strategy to help further disentangle the domain-invariant information when training the segmentation head. Moreover, we propose a simple but highly effective approach for test-time domain adaptation, based on learning a scene prompt on the target domain in an unsupervised manner. Extensive experiments conducted on four synthetic-to-real and clear-to-adverse weather benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our approaches. Without resorting to any complex techniques, such as image translation, augmentation, or rare-class sampling, we set a new state-of-the-art on all benchmarks. Our implementation will be publicly available at \url{https://github.com/ETHRuiGong/PTDiffSeg}.

SVDM: Single-View Diffusion Model for Pseudo-Stereo 3D Object Detection
Authors:Yuguang Shi
One of the key problems in 3D object detection is to reduce the accuracy gap between methods based on LiDAR sensors and those based on monocular cameras. A recently proposed framework for monocular 3D detection based on Pseudo-Stereo has received considerable attention in the community. However, so far these two problems are discovered in existing practices, including (1) monocular depth estimation and Pseudo-Stereo detector must be trained separately, (2) Difficult to be compatible with different stereo detectors and (3) the overall calculation is large, which affects the reasoning speed. In this work, we propose an end-to-end, efficient pseudo-stereo 3D detection framework by introducing a Single-View Diffusion Model (SVDM) that uses a few iterations to gradually deliver right informative pixels to the left image. SVDM allows the entire pseudo-stereo 3D detection pipeline to be trained end-to-end and can benefit from the training of stereo detectors. Afterwards, we further explore the application of SVDM in depth-free stereo 3D detection, and the final framework is compatible with most stereo detectors. Among multiple benchmarks on the KITTI dataset, we achieve new state-of-the-art performance.

Detecting Images Generated by Deep Diffusion Models using their Local Intrinsic Dimensionality
Authors:Peter Lorenz, Ricard Durall, Janis Keuper
Diffusion models recently have been successfully applied for the visual synthesis of strikingly realistic appearing images. This raises strong concerns about their potential for malicious purposes. In this paper, we propose using the lightweight multi Local Intrinsic Dimensionality (multiLID), which has been originally developed in context of the detection of adversarial examples, for the automatic detection of synthetic images and the identification of the according generator networks. In contrast to many existing detection approaches, which often only work for GAN-generated images, the proposed method provides close to perfect detection results in many realistic use cases. Extensive experiments on known and newly created datasets demonstrate that multiLID exhibits superiority in diffusion detection and model identification. Since the empirical evaluations of recent publications on the detection of generated images is often too focused on the “LSUN-Bedroom” dataset, we further establish a comprehensive benchmark for the detection of diffusion-generated images, including samples from several diffusion models with different image sizes to evaluate the performance of their multiLID. Code for our experiments is provided at https://github.com/deepfake-study/deepfake_multiLID.

DragonDiffusion: Enabling Drag-style Manipulation on Diffusion Models
Authors:Chong Mou, Xintao Wang, Jiechong Song, Ying Shan, Jian Zhang
Despite the ability of existing large-scale text-to-image (T2I) models to generate high-quality images from detailed textual descriptions, they often lack the ability to precisely edit the generated or real images. In this paper, we propose a novel image editing method, DragonDiffusion, enabling Drag-style manipulation on Diffusion models. Specifically, we construct classifier guidance based on the strong correspondence of intermediate features in the diffusion model. It can transform the editing signals into gradients via feature correspondence loss to modify the intermediate representation of the diffusion model. Based on this guidance strategy, we also build a multi-scale guidance to consider both semantic and geometric alignment. Moreover, a cross-branch self-attention is added to maintain the consistency between the original image and the editing result. Our method, through an efficient design, achieves various editing modes for the generated or real images, such as object moving, object resizing, object appearance replacement, and content dragging. It is worth noting that all editing and content preservation signals come from the image itself, and the model does not require fine-tuning or additional modules. Our source code will be available at https://github.com/MC-E/DragonDiffusion.

Censored Sampling of Diffusion Models Using 3 Minutes of Human Feedback
Authors:TaeHo Yoon, Kibeom Myoung, Keon Lee, Jaewoong Cho, Albert No, Ernest K. Ryu
Diffusion models have recently shown remarkable success in high-quality image generation. Sometimes, however, a pre-trained diffusion model exhibits partial misalignment in the sense that the model can generate good images, but it sometimes outputs undesirable images. If so, we simply need to prevent the generation of the bad images, and we call this task censoring. In this work, we present censored generation with a pre-trained diffusion model using a reward model trained on minimal human feedback. We show that censoring can be accomplished with extreme human feedback efficiency and that labels generated with a mere few minutes of human feedback are sufficient. Code available at: https://github.com/tetrzim/diffusion-human-feedback.

On the Cultural Gap in Text-to-Image Generation
Authors:Bingshuai Liu, Longyue Wang, Chenyang Lyu, Yong Zhang, Jinsong Su, Shuming Shi, Zhaopeng Tu
One challenge in text-to-image (T2I) generation is the inadvertent reflection of culture gaps present in the training data, which signifies the disparity in generated image quality when the cultural elements of the input text are rarely collected in the training set. Although various T2I models have shown impressive but arbitrary examples, there is no benchmark to systematically evaluate a T2I model’s ability to generate cross-cultural images. To bridge the gap, we propose a Challenging Cross-Cultural (C3) benchmark with comprehensive evaluation criteria, which can assess how well-suited a model is to a target culture. By analyzing the flawed images generated by the Stable Diffusion model on the C3 benchmark, we find that the model often fails to generate certain cultural objects. Accordingly, we propose a novel multi-modal metric that considers object-text alignment to filter the fine-tuning data in the target culture, which is used to fine-tune a T2I model to improve cross-cultural generation. Experimental results show that our multi-modal metric provides stronger data selection performance on the C3 benchmark than existing metrics, in which the object-text alignment is crucial. We release the benchmark, data, code, and generated images to facilitate future research on culturally diverse T2I generation (https://github.com/longyuewangdcu/C3-Bench).

IPO-LDM: Depth-aided 360-degree Indoor RGB Panorama Outpainting via Latent Diffusion Model
Authors:Tianhao Wu, Chuanxia Zheng, Tat-Jen Cham
Generating complete 360-degree panoramas from narrow field of view images is ongoing research as omnidirectional RGB data is not readily available. Existing GAN-based approaches face some barriers to achieving higher quality output, and have poor generalization performance over different mask types. In this paper, we present our 360-degree indoor RGB panorama outpainting model using latent diffusion models (LDM), called IPO-LDM. We introduce a new bi-modal latent diffusion structure that utilizes both RGB and depth panoramic data during training, but works surprisingly well to outpaint normal depth-free RGB images during inference. We further propose a novel technique of introducing progressive camera rotations during each diffusion denoising step, which leads to substantial improvement in achieving panorama wraparound consistency. Results show that our IPO-LDM not only significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods on RGB panorama outpainting, but can also produce multiple and diverse well-structured results for different types of masks.
