SwiftPie: Lightning-fast Subject-driven Image Personalization via One step Diffusion

Diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in high-quality image synthesis, sparking interest in image-guided generation tasks such as subject-driven image personalization. Despite their impressive personalization results, existing methods typically rely on computationally intensive fine-tuning, iterative optimization, or multi-step denoising processes, which significantly hinder their deployment and interactive capability in real-time applications. In this work, we present SwiftPie, the first one-step diffusion image personalization tool that enables lightning-fast generation of personalized images. SwiftPie introduces a novel dual-branch identity injection mechanism that effectively integrates subject identity into a one-step diffusion model. In addition, we incorporate a mask-guided rescaling strategy to further enhance subject contextualization within a single diffusion step. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SwiftPie not only delivers superior image personalization speed but also achieves comparable performance with multi-step approaches in both identity fidelity and prompt alignment. This work opens new opportunities for real-time, high-quality personalized image generation, paving the way for interactive visual synthesis.

Toward Fine-Grained Speech Inpainting Forensics:A Dataset, Method, and Metric for Multi-Region Tampering Localization

Recent advances in voice cloning and text-to-speech synthesis have made partial speech manipulation - where an adversary replaces a few words within an utterance to alter its meaning while preserving the speaker's identity - an increasingly realistic threat. Existing audio deepfake detection benchmarks focus on utterance-level binary classification or single-region tampering, leaving a critical gap in detecting and localizing multiple inpainted segments whose count is unknown a priori. We address this gap with three contributions. First, we introduce MIST (Multiregion Inpainting Speech Tampering), a large-scale multilingual dataset spanning 6 languages with 1-3 independently inpainted word-level segments per utterance, generated via LLM-guided semantic replacement and neural voice cloning, with fake content constituting only 2-7% of each utterance. Second, we propose ISA (Iterative Segment Analysis), a backbone-agnostic framework that performs coarse-to-fine sliding-window classification with gap-tolerant region proposal and boundary refinement to recover all tampered regions without prior knowledge of their count. Third, we define SF1@tau, a segment-level F1 metric based on temporal IoU matching that jointly evaluates region count accuracy and localization precision. Zero-shot evaluation reveals that partial inpainting at word granularity remains unsolved by existing deepfake detectors: utterance-level classifiers trained on fully synthesized speech assign near zero fake probability to MIST utterances where only 2-7% of content is manipulated. ISA consistently outperforms non-iterative baselines in this challenging setting, and the dataset, code, and evaluation toolkit are publicly released.

Count What You Want: Exemplar Identification and Few-shot Counting of Human Actions in the Wild

This paper addresses the task of counting human actions of interest using sensor data from wearable devices. We propose a novel exemplar-based framework, allowing users to provide exemplars of the actions they want to count by vocalizing predefined sounds ''one'', ''two'', and ''three''. Our method first localizes temporal positions of these utterances from the audio sequence. These positions serve as the basis for identifying exemplars representing the action class of interest. A similarity map is then computed between the exemplars and the entire sensor data sequence, which is further fed into a density estimation module to generate a sequence of estimated density values. Summing these density values provides the final count. To develop and evaluate our approach, we introduce a diverse and realistic dataset consisting of real-world data from 37 subjects and 50 action categories, encompassing both sensor and audio data. The experiments on this dataset demonstrate the viability of the proposed method in counting instances of actions from new classes and subjects that were not part of the training data. On average, the discrepancy between the predicted count and the ground truth value is 7.47, significantly lower than the errors of the frequency-based and transformer-based methods. Our project, code and dataset can be found at https://github.com/cvlab-stonybrook/ExRAC.
