Adobe Research and UC San Diego developed EditAgent, an AI system that decomposes image editing into sub-steps using a general-purpose editor paired with specialized tools. It employs a standard language model to evaluate parallel-generated variants based on measured statistics and crops, outperforming task-specific evaluators despite requiring ten times the compute.

    • EditAgent decomposes editing into sub-steps, combining a general editor with specialized tools like sharpening or zooming.
    • A standard LLM evaluates results using measured statistics and close-up crops, outperforming task-specific evaluation models.
    • Achieves higher accuracy than previous agents but requires ~10x compute; verified outputs serve as training data for faster models.
