TL;DR

RankT2I is presented, a novel, training-free, and model-agnostic framework that automates the discovery of editable semantics in diffusion and FLUX-based models and helps users efficiently identify a wide range of semantics for text-to-image editing models across several domains.

Abstract

Recent advances in text-to-image (T2I) models have revolutionized the field of image generation and editing. However, identifying semantics that a T2I model can successfully edit in an image continues to be a challenging task. Most existing approaches require users to manually specify semantics to modify a particular image, a time-consuming process that often involves extensive trial and error. In this paper, we present RankT2I, a novel, training-free, and model-agnostic framework that automates the discovery of editable semantics in diffusion and FLUX-based models. Given a visual domain, we first utilize a multimodal vision-language model to gather a broad set of candidate semantics. We then frame semantic discovery as a set selection problem and use a submodular objective to identify semantics that are relevant, editable, and diverse. Our method helps users efficiently identify a wide range of semantics for text-to-image editing models across several domains while outperforming existing methods.

Compositional Concept Erasure in Text-to-Image Diffusion Models via Hierarchically Grounded Semantic Surgery

Removing copyrighted, unsafe, or user-specified concepts from a deployed text-to-image diffusion model is now a practical requirement. Weight-editing methods can suppress fixed targets, but they require per-target retraining and modify the model checkpoint. Training-free methods, on the other hand, are deployment-frien...

ENEAS: Embedding-guided Neural Ensemble for Adaptive Segmentation

We present ENEAS, a unified, text-promptable method for instance tracking and semantic discovery. Text-promptable segmentation models, including the latest foundation models such as SAM 3, still suffer from temporal hallucinations, spatial fragmentation, and semantic misclassification: they fail to report target absenc...

T2LSC-Bench: Benchmarking Localized Semantic Control in Text-to-Image Generation

Recent text-to-image models have become increasingly capable of rendering explicit text, but reliable localized text control requires more than generating the correct string. In applications such as product labeling, signage, and interface design, target text should be rendered within a designated text-bearing region w...

StaG-CoTMR: Paraphrase-Consistent Zero-Shot Composed Image Retrieval via Finite Edit Graphs and Consensus-Guided Ranking

Zero-shot composed image retrieval (ZS-CIR) methods often use large vision-language models (LVLMs) to represent an image-text query comprising a reference image and a modification instruction. However, semantically equivalent instructions can alter the generated representations and final rankings. An individual retriev...
