Multi-Conditioned Diffusion Synthesis of Sand Boils for Low-Resource Earthen-Levee Inspection
We present a diffusion-based synthesis pipeline for low-resource sand-boil imagery. Using Stable Diffusion XL fine-tuned with DreamBooth and conditioned by a multi-branch ControlNet stack, the pipeline generates synthetic inspection images from a small curated reference set. A soft-mask inpainting protocol preserves the real defect pixels while re-rendering the surrounding scene, avoiding seams and color shifts from prior seamless-cloning compositing.
