FluxSpace: Disentangled Semantic Editing in Rectified Flow Models
Yusuf Dalva, Kavana Venkatesh, Pinar Yanardag
Abstract
Rectified flow models have emerged as a dominant approach in image generation, showcasing impressive capabilities in high-quality image synthesis. However, despite their effectiveness in visual generation, rectified flow models often struggle with disentangled editing of images. This limitation prevents the ability to perform precise, attributespecific modifications without affecting unrelated aspects of the image. In this paper, we introduce FluxSpace, a domainagnostic image editing method leveraging a representation space with the ability to control the semantics of images generated by rectified flow transformers, such as Flux. By leveraging the representations learned by the transformer blocks within the rectified flow models, we propose a set of semantically interpretable representations that enable a wide range of image editing tasks, from fine-grained image editing to artistic creation. This work offers a scalable and effective image editing approach, along with its disentanglement capabilities.
