In the field of image generation, particularly in the creation of panoramic images, utilizing large pre-trained text-to-image (T2I) models for multi-view image generation is becoming a trend. However, due to the high cost of obtaining multi-view images, many researchers are seeking methods that do not require fine-tuning. Some current methods on the market either can only handle simple correspondences or require extensive fine-tuning to capture complex correspondences.

PanoFree generates multi-view images through an iterative deformation and patching process, addressing common issues of consistency and artifacts caused by error accumulation without any fine-tuning.

PanoFree's approach enhances cross-view awareness and improves the deformation and patching process through various techniques, including cross-view guidance, risk area estimation and erasing, and symmetric bidirectional guidance for loop generation.

Additionally, PanoFree utilizes guided semantic and density control to preserve scene structure. In experiments with flat, 360-degree, and global panoramic images, PanoFree demonstrated significant error reduction, improved global consistency, and significantly enhanced image quality without additional fine-tuning.

Compared to existing methods, PanoFree improves time efficiency by 5 times, GPU memory usage efficiency by 3 times, and the diversity of results in user studies by 2 times.

Overall, PanoFree provides a viable alternative for researchers who wish to reduce costs, avoid tedious fine-tuning, or use additional pre-trained models.

Key Points:

🌟 PanoFree is a fine-tuning-free method for multi-view image generation that supports complex correspondences.

🚀 This method solves consistency and artifact issues in generation through iterative deformation and patching.

💡 PanoFree significantly improves time efficiency and memory usage, with higher result diversity.
