Good Noise Makes Good Edits: A Training-Free Diffusion-Based Video Editing with Image and Text Prompts

We propose ImEdit, the first zero-shot, training-free video editing method conditioned on both images and text. The proposed method introduces $\rho$-start sampling and dilated dual masking to construct well-structured noise maps for coherent and accurate edits. We further present zero image guidance, a controllable negative prompt strategy, for visual fidelity. Both quantitative and qualitative evaluations show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods across all metrics.

Training Spatial-Frequency Visual Prompts and Probabilistic Clusters for Accurate Black-Box Transfer Learning

Despite the growing prevalence of black-box pre-trained models (PTMs) such as prediction API services, there remains a significant challenge in directly applying general models to real-world scenarios due to the data distribution gap. Considering a data deficiency and constrained computational resource scenario, this paper proposes a novel parameter-efficient transfer learning framework for vision recognition models in the black-box setting. Our framework incorporates two novel training techniques. First, we align the input space (i.e., image) of PTMs to the target data distribution by generating visual prompts of spatial and frequency domain. Along with the novel spatial-frequency hybrid visual prompter, we design a novel training technique based on probabilistic clusters, which can enhance class separation in the output space (i.e., prediction probabilities). In experiments, our model demonstrates superior performance in a few-shot transfer learning setting across extensive visual recognition datasets, surpassing state-of-the-art baselines. Additionally, we show that the proposed method efficiently reduces computational costs for training and inference phases.
