arXiv:2610.31950v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent instruction-following image editors such as Flux.1-Kontext enable text-driven editing but lack fine-grained control over where and how much an edit is applied. Existing approaches provide either continuous but global control or spatially localized editing at a fixed strength. To our knowledge, none jointly supports explicit spatial localization, continuous per-region strength, and independent simultaneous control of multiple subjects. We present LOCI (LOcalized Continuous control for multi- subject Image editing). Given a multi-subject image with per-subject regions and instructions, LOCI edits each subject at an independently chosen, continuously adjustable strength, for instance gradually aging one person while adding a beard to another with minimal cross-region leakage. LOCI pairs subject-level attention binding for spatial isolation with a Regional LoRA layer that replaces the LoRA's scalar coefficient with a per-token scaling vector aligned to the spatial layout. A single adapter is trained at one suppression point, and continuous edit strengths follow by rescaling its regional residual at inference. Experiments on multi-subject scenes demonstrate that LOCI achieves strong edit fidelity with significantly reduced cross-region interference compared to baselines, while maintaining continuous control over edit strength
