h-Flow: Flexible Flow-based Image Editing via Doob's h-Transform

Editing images with pre-trained text-to-image flow models typically requires carefully balancing target alignment with the desired prompt and source consistency with the original image. Existing approaches either rely on inversion-based pipelines or heuristic source-to-target trajectory constructions, which often depend on architecture-specific designs or are sensitive to hyperparameters. In this paper, we propose h-Flow, a training-free and theoretically grounded flow-based editing framework. Inspired by Doob's $h$-Transform, we reformulate image editing as conditional generation under multiple terminal events corresponding to source consistency and target alignment. We first extend the classical $h$-Transform from SDE-based models to the deterministic RF framework by constructing an equivalent SDE with identical marginals. Within this formulation, we design dedicated $h$-functions for source consistency and target alignment, yielding closed-form reconstruction guidance and velocity-based semantic editing signals. We further introduce a velocity orthogonal decomposition to decouple reconstruction and editing directions, enabling a controllable trade-off between the two objectives. Extensive experiments demonstrate that h-Flow achieves effective, robust, and flexible editing across diverse scenarios. The code will be released soon.

Bridging Rendering and Generative Modeling with Monte Carlo Transport Scheduling

Monte Carlo rendering and modern generative models both transform uncertain states into structured images, yet they are usually studied as separate processes. We introduce Monte Carlo Transport Scheduling, a framework that treats progressive path tracing as a continuous sampling-driven transport process. Our key observation is that the renderer already produces physically valid states along this process: nested Monte Carlo estimates trace a refinement trajectory whose natural time coordinate follows from sampling variance. This view leads to a continuous training framework that learns from real render endpoints rather than synthetic interpolants, preserving the statistical structure of Monte Carlo estimation while enabling arbitrary-step neural refinement. We evaluate the framework on a controlled rendering benchmark designed to separate transport difficulty from scene context, and show that it yields stable render refinement, supports continuous stopping between rendering states, and transfers as a physical prior for frozen generative samplers. These results suggest a common continuous-time substrate for rendering and generation, where Monte Carlo sampling provides both the physical states and the supervision for learning image transport.

GT2-GS: Geometry-aware Texture Transfer for Gaussian Splatting

Transferring 2D textures onto complex 3D scenes plays a vital role in enhancing the efficiency and controllability of 3D multimedia content creation. However, existing 3D style transfer methods primarily focus on transferring abstract artistic styles to 3D scenes. These methods often overlook the geometric information of the scene, which makes it challenging to achieve high-quality 3D texture transfer results. In this paper, we present GT2-GS, a geometry-aware texture transfer framework for gaussian splatting. First, we propose a geometry-aware texture transfer loss that enables view-consistent texture transfer by leveraging prior view-dependent feature information and texture features augmented with additional geometric parameters. Moreover, an adaptive fine-grained control module is proposed to address the degradation of scene information caused by low-granularity texture features. Finally, a geometry preservation branch is introduced. This branch refines the geometric parameters using additionally bound Gaussian color priors, thereby decoupling the optimization objectives of appearance and geometry. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and controllability of our method. Through geometric awareness, our approach achieves texture transfer results that better align with human visual perception. Our homepage is available at https://vpx-ecnu.github.io/GT2-GS-website.

LMP: Leveraging Motion Prior in Zero-Shot Video Generation with Diffusion Transformer

In recent years, large-scale pre-trained diffusion transformer models have made significant progress in video generation. While current DiT models can produce high-definition, high-frame-rate, and highly diverse videos, there is a lack of fine-grained control over the video content. Controlling the motion of subjects in videos using only prompts is challenging, especially when it comes to describing complex movements. Further, existing methods fail to control the motion in image-to-video generation, as the subject in the reference image often differs from the subject in the reference video in terms of initial position, size, and shape. To address this, we propose the Leveraging Motion Prior (LMP) framework for zero-shot video generation. Our framework harnesses the powerful generative capabilities of pre-trained diffusion transformers to enable motion in the generated videos to reference user-provided motion videos in both text-to-video and image-to-video generation. To this end, we first introduce a foreground-background disentangle module to distinguish between moving subjects and backgrounds in the reference video, preventing interference in the target video generation. A reweighted motion transfer module is designed to allow the target video to reference the motion from the reference video. To avoid interference from the subject in the reference video, we propose an appearance separation module to suppress the appearance of the reference subject in the target video. We annotate the DAVIS dataset with detailed prompts for our experiments and design evaluation metrics to validate the effectiveness of our method. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance in generation quality, prompt-video consistency, and control capability.

Motion-Zero: Zero-Shot Moving Object Control Framework for Diffusion-Based Video Generation

Recent large-scale pre-trained diffusion models have demonstrated a powerful generative ability to produce high-quality videos from detailed text descriptions. However, exerting control over the motion of objects in videos generated by any video diffusion model is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a novel zero-shot moving object trajectory control framework, Motion-Zero, to enable a bounding-box-trajectories-controlled text-to-video diffusion model. To this end, an initial noise prior module is designed to provide a position-based prior to improve the stability of the appearance of the moving object and the accuracy of position. In addition, based on the attention map of the U-net, spatial constraints are directly applied to the denoising process of diffusion models, which further ensures the positional and spatial consistency of moving objects during the inference. Furthermore, temporal consistency is guaranteed with a proposed shift temporal attention mechanism. Our method can be flexibly applied to various state-of-the-art video diffusion models without any training process. Extensive experiments demonstrate our proposed method can control the motion trajectories of objects and generate high-quality videos.
