Original abstract

High-resolution image editing is increasingly demanded in professional workflows, yet existing diffusion-based models remain constrained to resolutions below 1K due to quadratic attention complexity and prohibitive memory requirements. A prevalent workaround employs a two-stage pipeline: editing at low resolution followed by independent super-resolution. However, this approach suffers from two critical issues: information divergence, where hallucinated details contradict the original high-resolution (HR) source, and texture degradation, manifesting as over-smoothed or over-sharpened artifacts. We propose EditBridge, a diffusion bridge framework for efficient ultra high-resolution editing. Unlike conventional diffusion that regenerates from noise, we formulate refinement as structured data-to-data translation from the low-resolution (LR) edited result to its HR counterpart, explicitly conditioned on the original HR source to preserve authentic details. To efficiently incorporate HR source guidance, we introduce a prior-guided block-wise sparse attention mechanism that exploits semantic correspondence from first-stage editing to constrain cross-image interactions to spatially aligned regions, significantly reducing computational overhead. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EditBridge achieves high-fidelity editing with superior perceptual quality at resolutions up to 4K, delivering 3.6--8.4$\times$ speedup at 2K and enabling practical 4K editing in 61 seconds.
