A homotopy-plus-MCMC data-generation pipeline trains a mass-conditioned diffusion model that yields 40% more feasible initial costates and a better Pareto front for multiobjective indirect low-thrust transfers than adjoint-control-transformation baselines.
Hallo-Live achieves 20.38 FPS real-time text-to-audio-video avatar generation with 0.94s latency using asynchronous dual-stream diffusion and HP-DMD preference distillation, matching teacher model quality at 16x higher throughput.
GDMD replaces raw-sample rewards with distillation-gradient rewards in RL-guided diffusion distillation, yielding 4-step models that surpass their multi-step teachers on GenEval and human preference metrics.
UDM-GRPO is the first RL integration for uniform discrete diffusion models, using final clean samples as actions and forward-process trajectory reconstruction to raise GenEval accuracy from 69% to 96% and OCR accuracy from 8% to 57%.
MSDDA derives a closed-form optimal reverse denoising distribution for multi-objective diffusion alignment that is exactly equivalent to step-level RL fine-tuning with no approximation error.
DiffusionNFT performs online RL for diffusion models on the forward process via flow matching and positive-negative contrasts, delivering up to 25x efficiency gains and rapid benchmark improvements over prior reverse-process methods.
MixGRPO speeds up GRPO for flow-based image generators by restricting SDE sampling and optimization to a sliding window while using ODE elsewhere, cutting training time by up to 71% with better alignment performance.
UnifiedReward is the first unified reward model that jointly assesses multimodal understanding and generation to provide better preference signals for aligning vision models via DPO.
Super-Linear Advantage Shaping (SLAS) introduces a non-linear geometric policy update for RL post-training of text-to-image models that reshapes the local policy space via advantage-dependent Fisher-Rao weighting to reduce reward hacking and improve performance over GRPO baselines.
dFlowGRPO is a new rate-aware RL method for discrete flow models that outperforms prior GRPO approaches on image generation and matches continuous flow models while supporting broad probability paths.
The work creates identity-consistent synthetic makeup data via ConsistentBeauty and adapts models to real images using reinforcement learning in RealBeauty, achieving better identity preservation and real-world performance than prior methods.
Response times modeled as drift-diffusion processes enable consistent estimation of population-average preferences from heterogeneous anonymous binary choices.
A threshold-guided alignment method lets visual generative models be optimized directly from scalar human ratings instead of requiring paired preference data.
Anomaly Preference Optimization reformulates anomalous image synthesis as preference learning with implicit alignment from real anomalies and a time-aware capacity allocation module for diffusion models to balance diversity and fidelity.
V-GRPO makes ELBO surrogates stable and efficient for online RL alignment of denoising models, delivering SOTA text-to-image performance with 2-3x speedups over MixGRPO and DiffusionNFT.
Sol-RL decouples FP4-based candidate exploration from BF16 policy optimization in diffusion RL, delivering up to 4.64x faster convergence with maintained or superior alignment performance on models like FLUX.1 and SD3.5.
A human preference dataset and VideoReward model enable Flow-DPO and Flow-NRG to produce smoother, better-aligned videos from text prompts in flow-based generators.
HPD v2 is the largest human preference dataset for text-to-image images with 798k choices, and HPS v2 is the resulting CLIP-based scorer that better predicts human judgments and responds to model improvements.
DDPO uses policy gradients on the denoising process to optimize diffusion models for arbitrary rewards like human feedback or compressibility.
