+[VisualCloze: A Universal Image Generation Framework via Visual In-Context Learning](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.07960) is an innovative in-context learning based universal image generation framework that offers key capabilities:
+1. Support for various in-domain tasks
+2. Generalization to unseen tasks through in-context learning
+3. Unify multiple tasks into one step and generate both target image and intermediate results
+4. Support reverse-engineering conditions from target images
+
+## Overview
+
+The abstract from the paper is:
+
+*Recent progress in diffusion models significantly advances various image generation tasks. However, the current mainstream approach remains focused on building task-specific models, which have limited efficiency when supporting a wide range of different needs. While universal models attempt to address this limitation, they face critical challenges, including generalizable task instruction, appropriate task distributions, and unified architectural design. To tackle these challenges, we propose VisualCloze, a universal image generation framework, which supports a wide range of in-domain tasks, generalization to unseen ones, unseen unification of multiple tasks, and reverse generation. Unlike existing methods that rely on language-based task instruction, leading to task ambiguity and weak generalization, we integrate visual in-context learning, allowing models to identify tasks from visual demonstrations. Meanwhile, the inherent sparsity of visual task distributions hampers the learning of transferable knowledge across tasks. To this end, we introduce Graph200K, a graph-structured dataset that establishes various interrelated tasks, enhancing task density and transferable knowledge. Furthermore, we uncover that our unified image generation formulation shared a consistent objective with image infilling, enabling us to leverage the strong generative priors of pre-trained infilling models without modifying the architectures. The codes, dataset, and models are available at https://visualcloze.github.io.*
+
+## Inference
+
+### Model loading
+
+VisualCloze is a two-stage cascade pipeline, containing `VisualClozeGenerationPipeline` and `VisualClozeUpsamplingPipeline`.
+- In `VisualClozeGenerationPipeline`, each image is downsampled before concatenating images into a grid layout, avoiding excessively high resolutions. VisualCloze releases two models suitable for diffusers, i.e., [VisualClozePipeline-384](https://huggingface.co/VisualCloze/VisualClozePipeline-384) and [VisualClozePipeline-512](https://huggingface.co/VisualCloze/VisualClozePipeline-384), which downsample images to resolutions of 384 and 512, respectively. 
+- `VisualClozeUpsamplingPipeline` uses [SDEdit](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.01073) to enable high-resolution image synthesis.
+
+The `VisualClozePipeline` integrates both stages to support convenient end-to-end sampling, while also allowing users to utilize each pipeline independently as needed.
+
+### Input Specifications
+
+#### Task and Content Prompts
+- Task prompt: Required to describe the generation task intention
+- Content prompt: Optional description or caption of the target image
+- When content prompt is not needed, pass `None`
+- For batch inference, pass `List[str|None]`
+
+#### Image Input Format
+- Format: `List[List[Image|None]]`
+- Structure:
+  - All rows except the last represent in-context examples
+  - Last row represents the current query (target image set to `None`)
+- For batch inference, pass `List[List[List[Image|None]]]`
+
+#### Resolution Control
+- Default behavior:
+  - Initial generation in the first stage: area of ${pipe.resolution}^2$
+  - Upsampling in the second stage: 3x factor
+- Custom resolution: Adjust using `upsampling_height` and `upsampling_width` parameters
+
+### Examples
+
+For comprehensive examples covering a wide range of tasks, please refer to the [Online Demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/VisualCloze/VisualCloze) and [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/lzyhha/VisualCloze). Below are simple examples for three cases: mask-to-image conversion, edge detection, and subject-driven generation.
+
+#### Example for mask2image

+    ],
+]
+
+# Task and content prompt
+task_prompt = "In each row, a logical task is demonstrated to achieve [IMAGE2] an aesthetically pleasing photograph based on [IMAGE1] sam 2-generated masks with rich color coding."
+content_prompt = """Majestic photo of a golden eagle perched on a rocky outcrop in a mountainous landscape. 
+The eagle is positioned in the right foreground, facing left, with its sharp beak and keen eyes prominently visible. 
+Its plumage is a mix of dark brown and golden hues, with intricate feather details. 
+The background features a soft-focus view of snow-capped mountains under a cloudy sky, creating a serene and grandiose atmosphere. 
+The foreground includes rugged rocks and patches of green moss. Photorealistic, medium depth of field, 
+soft natural lighting, cool color palette, high contrast, sharp focus on the eagle, blurred background,
