# ✨ Overview
**MotionEdit** is a novel dataset and benchmark for motion-centric image editing. We also propose **MotionNFT** (Motion-guided Negative-aware FineTuning), a post-training framework with motion alignment rewards to guide models on motion image editing task.
### Model Description
- **Model type:** Image Editing
- **Language(s):** English
- **Finetuned from model [optional]:** Qwen/Qwen-Image-Edit-2509
### Model Sources [optional]
- **Repository:** https://github.com/elainew728/motion-edit/tree/main
- **Paper:** https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.10284
- **Demo Page:** https://motion-edit.github.io/
# 🔧 Usage
## 🧱 To Start: Environment Setup
Clone our github repository and switch to the directory.
```
git clone https://github.com/elainew728/motion-edit.git
cd motion-edit
```
Create and activate the conda environment with dependencies that supports inference and training.
> * **Note:** some models like UltraEdit requires specific dependencies on the diffusers library. Please refer to their official repository to resolve dependencies before running inference.
```
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate motionedit
```
Finally, configure your own huggingface token to access restricted models by modifying `YOUR_HF_TOKEN_HERE` in [inference/run_image_editing.py](https://github.com/elainew728/motion-edit/tree/main/inference/run_image_editing.py).
## 🔍 Inferencing on *MotionEdit-Bench* with Image Editing Models
We have released our [MotionEdit-Bench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/elaine1wan/MotionEdit-Bench) on Huggingface.
In this Github Repository, we provide code that supports easy inference across open-source Image Editing models: ***Qwen-Image-Edit***, ***Flux.1 Kontext [Dev]***, ***InstructPix2Pix***, ***HQ-Edit***, ***Step1X-Edit***, ***UltraEdit***, ***MagicBrush***, and ***AnyEdit***.
### Step 1: Data Preparation
The inference script default to using our [MotionEdit-Bench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/elaine1wan/MotionEdit-Bench), which will download the dataset from Huggingface. You can specify a `cache_dir` for storing the cached data.
Additionally, you can construct your own dataset for inference. Please organize all input images into a folder `INPUT_FOLDER` and create a `metadata.jsonl` in the same directory. The `metadata.jsonl` file **must** at least contain entries with 2 entries:
```
{
"file_name": IMAGE_NAME.EXT,
"prompt": PROMPT
}
```
Then, load your dataset by:
```
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("imagefolder", data_dir=INPUT_FOLDER)
```
### Step 2: Running Inference
Use the following command to run inference on **MotionEdit-Bench** with our ***MotionNFT*** Huggingface checkpoint, trained on **MotionEdit** with Qwen-Image-Edit as the base model:
```
python inference/run_image_editing.py \
-o "./outputs/" \
-m "motionedit" \
--seed 42
```
