contents State-of-the-art diffusion models often rely on parameter-efficient fine-tuning to perform specialized image editing tasks. However, real-world applications require continual adaptation to new tasks while preserving previously learned knowledge. Despite the practical necessity, continual learning for image editing remains largely underexplored. We propose ACE-LoRA, a dynamic regularization framework for continual image editing that effectively mitigates catastrophic forgetting. ACE-LoRA leverages Adaptive Orthogonal Decoupling to identify and orthogonalize task interference, and introduces a Rank-Invariant Historical Information Compression strategy to address scalability issues in continual updates. To facilitate continual learning in image editing and provide a standardized evaluation protocol, we introduce CIE-Bench, the first comprehensive benchmark in this domain. CIE-Bench encompasses diverse and practically relevant image editing scenarios with a balanced level of difficulty to effectively expose limitations of existing models while remaining compatible with parameter-efficient fine-tuning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms existing baselines in terms of instruction fidelity, visual realism, and robustness to forgetting, establishing a strong foundation for continual learning in image editing.
