[Paper] Your Pre-trained Diffusion Model Secretly Knows Restoration

Summary

This paper reveals that pre-trained diffusion models inherently possess restoration capabilities, which can be activated by directly learning prompt embeddings. Unlike current methods that rely on fine-tuning or Control-Net modules, this work demonstrates that these models secretly know how to perform All-in-One Restoration (AiOR). This discovery could lead to more efficient and direct ways to leverage diffusion models for image restoration without extensive modifications.
