abstract
Distribution matching distillation (DMD) facilitates few-step image generation by aligning a distilled student with a reference multi-step teacher. In practice, however, optimizing DMD can reduce sample diversity in few-step synthesis, and existing remedies typically rely on perceptual or adversarial regularization, leading to stability and scalability challenges during training. Here, we describe diversity-preserved DMD (DP-DMD), a role-separated distillation method inspired by the complementary roles of early and late denoising steps. Specifically, the first distillation step is trained with a teacher-derived target-prediction objective (e.g., v-prediction) to preserve sample diversity, while the remaining steps are optimized with the standard DMD loss to refine perceptual quality. DP-DMD, with no perceptual or adversarial regularization, no additional modules, and no teacher-generated reference samples, preserves sample diversity while maintaining competitive visual quality under few-step sampling, providing a simple and stable alternative to other DMD variants.

STRIDE boosts diversity in one-step diffusion models by injecting PCA-aligned pink noise into transformer features while preserving text alignment and quality.
HorizonDrive is a new anti-drifting autoregressive training and distillation method that enables minute-scale stable driving video rollouts by making the teacher model rollout-capable via scheduled rollout recovery and teacher rollout DMD.
Hybrid Forcing combines linear temporal attention for long-range retention, block-sparse attention for efficiency, and decoupled distillation to achieve real-time unbounded 832x480 streaming video generation at 29.5 FPS.
Data-Forcing Distillation adds a teacher score discrepancy term to DMD-style distillation, restoring diversity and fidelity in few-step video models with 100-300 finetuning steps.
Empirical analysis of data, guidance, and task mixture in few-step distillation of Qwen-Image-2.0 produces the Qwen-Image-Flash model with improved performance in unified generation and editing tasks.
Qwen-Image-2.0 unifies high-fidelity image generation and precise editing by coupling Qwen3-VL with a Multimodal Diffusion Transformer, improving text rendering, photorealism, and complex prompt following over prior versions.
