Recent advances in diffusion models have significantly improved image editing. However, challenges persist in handling geometric transformations, such as translation, rotation, and scaling, particularly in complex scenes. Existing approaches suffer from two main limitations: (1) difficulty in achieving accurate geometric editing of object translation, rotation, and scaling; (2) inadequate modeling of intricate lighting and shadow effects, leading to unrealistic results. To address these issues, we propose GeoEdit, a framework that leverages in-context generation through a diffusion transformer module, which integrates geometric transformations for precise object edits. Moreover, we introduce Effects-Sensitive Attention, which enhances the modeling of intricate lighting and shadow effects for improved realism. To further support training, we construct RS-Objects, a large-scale geometric editing dataset containing over 120,000 high-quality image pairs, enabling the model to learn precise geometric editing while generating realistic lighting and shadows. Extensive experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate that GeoEdit consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of visual quality, geometric accuracy, and realism.

Text-to-Image (T2I) generation has achieved remarkable progress in recent years. Meanwhile, reinforcement learning methods, particularly those based on Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), have attracted widespread attention and been successfully applied to T2I tasks. However, the uniform sampling strategy commonly used during training often ignores the match between sample difficulty and the model's current learning capability, leading to low training efficiency. We argue that improving training efficiency requires continuously prioritizing prompts that match the model's evolving capability and remain actively learnable. To this end, we propose Curriculum Group Policy Optimization (CGPO), an adaptive curriculum training framework. During training, each prompt produces a group of images scored by a reward model. We use the variance of group rewards as an online proxy for prompt inconsistency. A higher variance suggests that the model has partially captured the prompt requirements but has not yet achieved stable mastery. Such prompts are more likely to provide useful learning signals, so we increase their sampling probabilities accordingly. Additionally, to address data imbalance in multi-category datasets, we design a category calibration method based on proportional fairness optimization, which balances training difficulty across categories. Experiments on GenEval, T2I-CompBench++, and DPG Bench demonstrate that our framework effectively improves generation performance.
