#1 FireFlow: Fast Inversion of Rectified Flow for Image Semantic Editing [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi] [REL]

Authors: Yingying Deng, Xiangyu He, Changwang Mei, Peisong Wang, Fan Tang

Though Rectified Flows (ReFlows) with distillation offer a promising way for fast sampling, its fast inversion transforms images back to structured noise for recovery and following editing remains unsolved. This paper introduces FireFlow, an embarrassingly simple yet effective zero-shot approach that inherits the startling capacity of ReFlow-based models (such as FLUX) in generation while extending its capabilities to accurate inversion and editing in **8** steps. We first demonstrate that a carefully designed numerical solver is pivotal for ReFlow inversion, enabling accurate inversion and reconstruction with the precision of a second-order solver while maintaining the practical efficiency of a first-order Euler method. This solver achieves a $3\times$ runtime speedup compared to state-of-the-art ReFlow inversion and editing techniques while delivering smaller reconstruction errors and superior editing results in a training-free mode.
