WindowSeat Model Card

This is a model card for the windowseat-reflection-removal-v1-0 model for single-image reflection removal. The model is derived from Qwen/Qwen-Image-Edit-2509 using LoRA adaptation as described in our paper titled "Reflection Removal through Efficient Adaptation of Diffusion Transformers" by Daniyar Zakarin, Thiemo Wandel, Anton Obukhov, Dengxin Dai.

See the Quick Start section of the paper's code repository for instructions on how to set up the environment and process photos with this model.
