IConFace: Identity-Structure Asymmetric Conditioning for Unified Reference-Aware Face Restoration
Blind face restoration is highly ill-posed under severe degradation, where identity-critical details may be missing from the degraded input. Same-identity references reduce this ambiguity, but mismatched pose, expression, illumination, age, makeup, or local facial states can lead to overuse of reference appearance. We propose \textbf{IConFace}, a unified reference-aware and no-reference framework with identity--structure asymmetric conditioning. References are distilled into a norm-weighted global AdaFace identity anchor for image-only modulation, while the degraded image is reinforced as the spatial structure anchor through low-rank residuals and block-wise degraded cross-attention with two-route memory. The resulting single checkpoint exploits references when available and falls back to no-reference restoration when absent, improving identity consistency, fine-detail recovery, and degraded-only restoration quality in a unified model.

ASTRA: Enhancing Multi-Subject Generation with Retrieval-Augmented Pose Guidance and Disentangled Position Embedding
Subject-driven image generation has shown great success in creating personalized content, but its capabilities are largely confined to single subjects in common poses. Current approaches face a fundamental conflict when …
