CrossPair enables flexible image edits by learning from before and after examples

CrossPair: Unlocking Generalist Visual Transformation Learning in Image Editors

Abstract: Language models switch tasks from demonstrations, but vision still often relies on separate systems for restoration, editing, and stylization. A before--after example offers a shared instruction only if the transferable change can be separated from the scene that demonstrates it. We introduce CrossPair, which adapts a pretrained multimodal image editor to transfer diverse transformations from one exemplar pair. Exemplar-before, exemplar-after, and query images take fixed roles in its native VLM and VAE pathways: the VLM extracts operation semantics, while the VAE retains fine appearance and structure. A training-only, change-aware DINOv3 objective aligns feature-change directions across content-distinct scenes, guiding the output to follow the demonstrated relation without an inference-time encoder. We construct Transform-360K by grouping filtered pairs from conditional representations, restoration, editing, virtual try-on, and stylization under shared transformations. On Relation252K-derived seen and held-out transformations, \method improves target agreement and edit-direction similarity over released systems. Ablations show that the semantic and visual exemplar routes are complementary and that DINO relation alignment further strengthens transfer; Transform-360K training also improves aggregate held-out-operation scores.

The gist
Editing or changing images in many ways usually requires different tools or systems. This paper introduces CrossPair, a method that learns how to apply a variety of image changes by looking at just one example of an image before and after an edit. The method separates the idea of the change from the content of the image, so it can apply the same change to different pictures. The authors show CrossPair works better than existing tools on diverse editing tasks by training it on a large set of image transformations.
