To better validate the capabilities of our model, we propose a benchmark called REDEdit-Bench. Our main goal is to build more diverse scenarios and editing instructions that better align with human language, enabling a more comprehensive evaluation of current editing models. We collected over 3,000 images from the internet, and after careful expert-designed selection, we constructed 1,673 bilingual (Chinese–English) editing pairs across 15 categories.
We provide the inference and evaluation code for REDEdit-Bench. Please refer to the redbench_infer.py and redbench_eval.py scripts in the src/tools directory for more details.
The REDEdit-Bench dataset will be available soon.
