Flow Divergence Sampler refines flow matching by computing velocity field divergence to correct ambiguous intermediate states during inference, improving fidelity in text-to-image and inverse problem tasks.
PromptEvolver recovers high-fidelity natural language prompts for given images by evolving them via genetic algorithm guided by a vision-language model, outperforming prior methods on benchmarks.
L2P repurposes pre-trained LDMs for direct pixel generation via large-patch tokenization and shallow-layer training on synthetic data, matching source performance with 8-GPU training and enabling native 4K output.
Generative models learn rules before memorizing data, creating an innovation window whose width depends on dataset size and rule complexity, observed in both diffusion and autoregressive architectures.
Suppressing attention sinks in diffusion transformers does not degrade CLIP-T alignment at moderate levels but induces sink-specific perceptual shifts six times larger than equal-budget random masking.
Prior-Aligned AutoEncoders shape latent manifolds with spatial coherence, local continuity, and global semantics to improve latent diffusion, achieving SOTA gFID 1.03 on ImageNet 256x256 with up to 13x faster convergence.
MUSE decouples reconstruction and semantic learning in visual tokenization via topological orthogonality, yielding SOTA generation quality and improved semantic performance over its teacher model.
ViTok-v2 is a 5B-parameter native-resolution image autoencoder using NaFlex and DINOv3 loss that matches or exceeds prior tokenizers at 256p and outperforms them at 512p and above while advancing the Pareto frontier in joint scaling with generators.
D-OPSD enables continuous supervised fine-tuning of few-step diffusion models via on-policy self-distillation where the model acts as both teacher (multimodal context) and student (text-only context) on its own roll-outs.
MeshLAM reconstructs high-fidelity animatable textured mesh head avatars from a single image via a feed-forward dual shape-texture architecture with iterative GRU decoding and reprojection-based guidance.
By requiring and using highly discriminative LLM text features, the work enables the first effective one-step text-conditioned image generation with MeanFlow.
APEX derives self-adversarial gradients from condition-shifted velocity fields in flow models to achieve high-fidelity one-step generation, outperforming much larger models and multi-step teachers.
Diffusion Templates is a unified plugin framework that allows injecting various controllable capabilities into diffusion models through a standardized interface.
Asset Harvester converts sparse in-the-wild object observations from AV driving logs into complete simulation-ready 3D assets via data curation, geometry-aware preprocessing, and a SparseViewDiT model that couples sparse-view multiview generation with 3D Gaussian lifting.
DARE mitigates neglect of important tokens in conditional diffusion models via distribution-rectified guidance and spatial attention alignment.
LTX-2 generates high-quality synchronized audiovisual content from text prompts via an asymmetric 14B-video / 5B-audio dual-stream transformer with cross-attention and modality-aware guidance.
