This work proposes TurboClear, a one-step SDXL-based object-effect removal model, and designs Region-Calibrated Distribution Matching (RDM) for region-aware distillation to preserve the teacher model's asymmetric edit-and-preserve behavior.
Abstract
Recently, diffusion-based removal methods have achieved promising visual quality in removing both target objects and their associated effects. However, they typically rely on multi-step denoising, leading to high inference cost. Directly applying existing one-step distillation methods is also suboptimal, since their global objectives lack explicit region-wise calibration and may weaken the asymmetric edit-and-preserve behavior required by object-effect removal. To address these challenges, we propose TurboClear, a one-step SDXL-based object-effect removal model. During training, we design Region-Calibrated Distribution Matching (RDM) for region-aware distillation to preserve the teacher model's asymmetric edit-and-preserve behavior. Furthermore, we propose Learnable Spatial Fusion (LSF) for lightweight inference-time fusion. Extensive experiments show that TurboClear significantly improves inference efficiency while maintaining competitive visual quality. TurboClear reduces the computational overhead by up to $40.04\times$ compared to ObjectClear, and by up to $665\times$ against the Flux-based method OmniPaint, all while maintaining comparable or better visual removal quality. Code is available at https://github.com/GuoCalix/TurboClear.
Residual Flow Matching for Image Super-Resolution (RFMSR) is proposed, a vision-only framework that centers the source distribution at the LQ latent, reducing transport distance and preserving structural priors throughout the flow trajectory.

Video object removal is a fundamental yet challenging task in video editing. Despite recent progress, existing methods typically fall into two categories. Traditional approaches based on optical flow or attention mechanisms often introduce noticeable artifacts and yield unnatural results. In contrast, diffusion-based methods improve visual realism but demand multiple denoising steps, limiting their practicality. To address these issues, we propose From-Draft-to-Draft-Free (D2DF), a framework that distills the ability of transforming coarse drafts into refined videos into a one-step video generation model. Within D2DF, a teacher model is trained to refine low-quality removal results ("drafts") into high-fidelity videos by multiple steps. Then, through Prior-Privileged Consistency Distillation (PPCD), we distill this capability into a student model that performs one-step removal conditioned on the draft. To eliminate draft dependency, we introduce a Self-Guided Fast Planting (SGFP) module based on our Temporal Masked Transformer that autonomously generates scene-consistent pseudo-drafts in latent space, enabling a fully draft-free one-step model. Extensive experiments show that both draft-conditioned and draft-free versions achieve state-of-the-art performance on multiple metrics, surpassing traditional and multi-step generative methods in both quality and efficiency. The denoising process for a single video takes only about 1 second.
