Custom-Edit: Text-Guided Image Editing with Customized Diffusion Models
Authors: name: Jooyoung Choi, name: Yunjey Choi, name: Yunji Kim, name: Junho Kim, name: Sungroh Yoon

Text-to-image diffusion models can generate diverse, high-fidelity images
based on user-provided text prompts. Recent research has extended these models
to support text-guided image editing. While text guidance is an intuitive
editing interface for users, it often fails to ensure the precise concept
conveyed by users. To address this issue, we propose Custom-Edit, in which we
(i) customize a diffusion model with a few reference images and then (ii)
perform text-guided editing. Our key discovery is that customizing only
language-relevant parameters with augmented prompts improves reference
similarity significantly while maintaining source similarity. Moreover, we
provide our recipe for each customization and editing process. We compare
popular customization methods and validate our findings on two editing methods
using various datasets.
