DreamBlend: Advancing Personalized Fine-Tuning of Text-to-Image Diffusion Models

Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Given a small number of images of a subject, personalized image generation techniques can fine-tune large pretrained text-to-image diffusion models to generate images of the subject in novel contexts, conditioned on text prompts. In doing so, a tradeoff is made between prompt fidelity, subject fidelity and diversity. As the pretrained model is fine-tuned, earlier checkpoints synthesize images with low subject fidelity but high prompt fidelity and diversity. In contrast, later checkpoints generate images with low prompt fidelity and diversity but high subject fidelity. This inherent tradeoff limits the prompt fidelity, subject fidelity and diversity of generated images. In this work, we propose DreamBlend to combine the prompt fidelity from earlier checkpoints and the subject fidelity from later checkpoints during inference. We perform a cross attention guided image synthesis from a later checkpoint, guided by an image
