Imagen on Vertex AI lets you edit Imagen-generated or existing images. You can specify part of the image to modify in addition to a text description of the updates (mask-base editing).
Types of available editing tools
Imagen supports mask-based editing. Mask-based editing lets you specify a targeted area to apply edits to. This method of editing is good for edits that apply to only parts of an image. Mask-based editing is useful for the following types of image edits:
- Insert objects into an image
- Remove objects from an image
- Expand the content of an image
- Replace the background of an image
Locations
A location is a region you can specify in a request to control where data is stored at rest. For a list of available regions, see Generative AI on Vertex AI locations .
Safety filtering
Both input data and output content are checked for offensive material when you send an image editing request to Imagen. This means offensive input data from a text prompt or from a base image you provide can be blocked. Similarly, offensive output images might also be blocked, affecting the number of generated images you get in a response.
For more information about safety filtering and blocked content handling, see Responsible AI and usage guidelines for Imagen .
Model versions
There are multiple image generation models that you can use. Each model may have limits that are specific to that model. For more information, see Imagen models .
