Scene text editing aims to modify text in a target region of an image while preserving surrounding background style and texture. Existing methods rely solely on image background information while neglecting the visual details of target regions, which discards stylistic features in the original text and essentially degrades the task to text rendering. Moreover, the conditions imposed by pre-trained glyph encoder limit the scope of editable text. To address these issues, this paper proposes a self-prompting scene text editing method that constructs style and glyph prompts directly from the original image, without introducing additional style or glyph encoders. We employ a two-stage training strategy: the diffusion transformer is first trained on large-scale self-supervised data and then refined using a small set of paired images. By leveraging the in-context learning capability of the Multi-Modal Diffusion Transformer (MM-DiT), it achieves open-vocabulary and style-consistent text editing. Experimental results on various languages demonstrate that our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance in both text accuracy and style consistency.

Existing video object removal methods predominantly rely on diffusion models following a noise-to-data paradigm, where generation starts from uninformative Gaussian noise. This approach discards the rich structural and contextual priors present in the original input video. Consequently, such methods often lack sufficient guidance, leading to incomplete object erasure or the synthesis of implausible content that conflicts with the scene's physical logic. In this paper, we reformulate video object removal as a video-to-video translation task via a stochastic bridge model. Unlike noise-initialized methods, our framework establishes a direct stochastic path from the source video (with objects) to the target video (objects removed). This bridge formulation effectively leverages the input video as a strong structural prior, guiding the model to perform precise removal while ensuring that the filled regions are logically consistent with the surrounding environment. To address the trade-off where strong bridge priors hinder the removal of large objects, we propose a novel adaptive mask modulation strategy. This mechanism dynamically modulates input embeddings based on mask characteristics, balancing background fidelity with generative flexibility. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms existing methods in both visual quality and temporal consistency. The project page is https://bridgeremoval.github.io/.
