I2VEdit - AI video editing technology that guides first-frame editing based on a diffusion model.
I2VEdit is an advanced video editing framework that uses an image-to-video diffusion model to enable first-frame guided video editing. Users only need to edit the first frame of the video, and I2VEdit can automatically apply the edits to the entire video.
What is I2VEdit?
I2VEdit is an advanced video editing framework that uses an image-to-video diffusion model to achieve frame-guided video editing. Users only need to edit the first frame of the video, and I2VEdit automatically applies the edits to the entire video. Developed jointly by Nanyang Technological University, SenseTime Research Institute, and the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, I2VEdit maintains temporal and motion consistency in video while providing high-quality editing results. I2VEdit is suitable for both local and global editing tasks, such as changing clothing, adding accessories, or style transitions, simplifying the video editing process.
Main functions of I2VEdit
- First Frame Editing GuideWhen a user edits the first frame of a video, I2VEdit automatically expands the edit to the entire video.
- Motion ConsistencyMaintain the continuity of motion between the edited video and the original video.
- Flexible editingSupports local editing (such as changing objects) and global editing (such as style conversion).
- High-quality outputGenerate a high-quality video that is consistent with the editing of the first frame and is temporally coherent.
I2VEdit's technical principles
- Coarse motion extractionLearn coarse motion patterns in videos based on the LoRA (low-rank adaptation) model for training motion.
- Appearance refinementPrecise appearance adjustments are made using a fine-grained attention matching algorithm.
- Smooth Regional Random Perturbation (SARP)Add random perturbations to smooth areas in the video to improve the quality of image-to-video conversion.
- Interval skipping strategyWhen processing long videos, an interval skipping strategy is used to reduce the quality degradation during the autoregressive generation process.
- diffusion modelBased on a pre-trained image-to-video diffusion model, edits are propagated from the first frame to the entire video.

Application scenarios of I2VEdit
- Social media content creationContent creators can quickly change elements in their videos, such as clothing and backgrounds, to match specific themes or brands.
- Video post-productionFilm and video production professionals can use I2VEdit to quickly switch styles or change scenes, improving the efficiency of post-production.
- Virtual try-onIn the fashion and retail sector, customers watch videos of models wearing different outfits, and merchants quickly generate multiple try-on effects.
- Theme replacementIn educational and training videos, easily replace the main characters or backgrounds in the presentation to adapt to different teaching scenarios.
- Style conversionArtists and designers explore different visual styles, such as transforming realistic videos into cartoon styles without manually redrawing every frame.
- Special effects productionIn video production, I2VEdit allows you to quickly apply effects, such as changing the color of objects in the video or adding special effects.
