Abstract
Recent diffusion-based models have significantly improved inpainting quality. However, existing methods struggle with multi-task inpainting due to conflicting optimization objectives, and current datasets are typically limited to taskspecific scenarios, hindering joint training. To address these challenges, we propose MagicPaint, a unified diffusion-based inpainting model that supports object addition, removal, and unconditional inpainting across both text and image modalities. MagicPaint semantically decouples operation types and target content by learnable tokens in our proposed MMToken Module, effectively reconciling conflicting optimization objectives and enabling robust multi-task, multi-modal inpainting. Besides, we use a novel module named MagicMask, encodes operating intent directly into the mask and applies a mask loss for spatially precise supervision. In addition, existing inpainting datasets are insufficient for multi-task and multi-modal scenarios, limiting the capability of inpainting models. Thus, we further introduce a new dataset comprising 2.1M image tuples. It is dedicatedly designed to support diverse inpainting scenarios and significantly improves upon existing datasets, particularly in object removal. Through efforts from both model and data perspectives, MagicPaint enables users to operate anything-add, remove or inpaint content which is specified through either text or image modalities in a seamless and unified manner. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MagicPaint achieves state-of-the-art performance across three key tasks (i.e., text-guided addition, image-guided addition, and object removal) and produces outputs with superior visual consistency and contextual fidelity compared to existing methods.
