HiFi-Inpaint: Towards High-Fidelity Reference-Based Inpainting for Generating Detail-Preserving Human-Product ImagesYichen Liu, Donghao Zhou, Jie Wang et al.
Human-product images, which showcase the integration of humans and products, play a vital role in advertising, e-commerce, and digital marketing. The essential challenge of generating such images lies in ensuring the high-fidelity preservation of product details. Among existing paradigms, reference-based inpainting offers a targeted solution by leveraging product reference images to guide the inpainting process. However, limitations remain in three key aspects: the lack of diverse large-scale training data, the struggle of current models to focus on product detail preservation, and the inability of coarse supervision for achieving precise guidance. To address these issues, we propose HiFi-Inpaint, a novel high-fidelity reference-based inpainting framework tailored for generating human-product images. HiFi-Inpaint introduces Shared Enhancement Attention (SEA) to refine fine-grained product features and Detail-Aware Loss (DAL) to enforce precise pixel-level supervision using high-frequency maps. Additionally, we construct a new dataset, HP-Image-40K, with samples curated from self-synthesis data and processed with automatic filtering. Experimental results show that HiFi-Inpaint achieves state-of-the-art performance, delivering detail-preserving human-product images.

Multimodal Adaptive Retrieval Augmented Generation through Internal Representation LearningRuoshuang Du, Xin Sun, Qiang Liu et al.
Visual Question Answering systems face reliability issues due to hallucinations, where models generate answers misaligned with visual input or factual knowledge. While Retrieval Augmented Generation frameworks mitigate this issue by incorporating external knowledge, static retrieval often introduces irrelevant or conflicting content, particularly in visual RAG settings where visually similar but semantically incorrect evidence may be retrieved. To address this, we propose Multimodal Adaptive RAG (MMA-RAG), which dynamically assesses the confidence in the internal knowledge of the model to decide whether to incorporate the retrieved external information into the generation process. Central to MMA-RAG is a decision classifier trained through a layer-wise analysis, which leverages joint internal visual and textual representations to guide the use of reverse image retrieval. Experiments demonstrated that the model achieves a significant improvement in response performance in three VQA datasets. Meanwhile, ablation studies highlighted the importance of internal representations in adaptive retrieval decisions. In general, the experimental results demonstrated that MMA-RAG effectively balances external knowledge utilization and inference robustness in diverse multimodal scenarios.
