EditReward: A Human-Aligned Reward Model for Instruction-Guided Image Editing

</div>

This repository contains the official implementation of the paper EditReward: A Human-Aligned Reward Model for Instruction-Guided Image Editing.

📖 Introduction

We introduce EditReward, a human-aligned reward model powered by a high-quality dataset for instruction-guided image editing. EditReward is trained with EditReward-Data, a large-scale, high-fidelity preference dataset comprising over 200K manually annotated preference pairs. This dataset covers diverse edits produced by seven state-of-the-art models across twelve distinct sources, ensuring high alignment with human judgment.

EditReward demonstrates superior alignment with human preferences in instruction-guided image editing tasks, achieving state-of-the-art human correlation on established benchmarks like GenAI-Bench, AURORA-Bench, ImagenHub, and our new EditReward-Bench.
