pOps: Photo-Inspired Diffusion Operators

Introduction

Different operators trained using pOps. Our method learns operators that are applied directly in the image embedding space, resulting in a variety of semantic operations that can then be realized as images using an image diffusion model.

Trained Operators

• Texturing Operator: Given an image embedding of an object and an image embedding of a texture exemplar, paint the object with the provided texture.
• Scene Operator: Given an image embedding of an object and an image embedding representing a scene layout, generate an image placing the object within a semantically similar scene.
• Union Operator: Given two image embeddings representing scenes with one or multiple objects, combine the objects appearing in the scenes into a single embedding composed of both objects.
• Instruct Operator: Given an image embedding of an object and a single-word adjective, apply the adjective to the image embedding, altering its characteristics accordingly.
