Abstract
An image synthesis process includes generating a target mask based on a segmentation mask of a defect displayed in a source image. A source feature map is generated based on the source image at each step of a forward diffusion process. A synthetic image is generated via a reverse diffusion process involving steps. Each step includes (i) generating an optimized iterate of a latent representation of a current version of denoising a latent representation of a noisy input image by minimizing an energy function that compares differences between (a) a current feature map generated based on the latent representation of the current version and (b) a target feature map generated using the target mask and the source feature map (ii) predicting a current noise amount of the optimized iterate, and (iii) generating a latent representation of a next version using the current noise amount and the optimized iterate.
