Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for utilizing a diffusion neural network for mask aware image and typography editing. For example, in one or more embodiments the disclosed systems utilize a text-image encoder to generate a base image embedding from a base digital image. Moreover, the disclosed systems generate a mask-segmented image by combining a shape mask with the base digital image. In one or more implementations, the disclosed systems utilize noising steps of a diffusion noising model to generate a mask-segmented image noise map from the mask-segmented image. Furthermore, the disclosed systems utilize a diffusion neural network to create a stylized image corresponding to the shape mask from the base image embedding and the mask-segmented image noise map.
