Can Consistent Feature Transport Preserve Identity While Relighting Portraits? ECCV 2026 CFT Method

The paper identifies instability and identity distortion in existing portrait relighting approaches, proposes the Consistent Feature Transport (CFT) framework that models lighting as a feature‑transfer problem within a Rectified Flow diffusion model, and demonstrates superior quantitative and qualitative results on a large‑scale relighting dataset as well as improved style‑transfer performance.
