PRA approximates sequential rollout training in parallel for pixel-space AR models via intermediate states and a pixel decoder, achieving FID 2.58 (135M params) and 1.94 (511M params) on ImageNet-1K 256x256, new SOTA among pixel-space AR models.
AsymFlow uses rank-asymmetric velocity prediction to reach 1.57 FID on ImageNet 256x256 and enables finetuning of latent flow models into superior pixel-space text-to-image generators.
CoReDi coevolves semantic representations with the diffusion model via a jointly learned linear projection stabilized by stop-gradient, normalization, and regularization, yielding faster convergence and higher sample quality than fixed-representation baselines.
Free-Range Gaussians uses flow matching over Gaussian parameters to predict non-grid-aligned 3D Gaussians from multi-view images, enabling synthesis of plausible content in unobserved regions with fewer primitives than grid-aligned methods.
Representation Forcing lets a UMM decoder autoregressively predict its own understanding representations as in-context tokens that guide pixel-space diffusion, matching VAE-based generation without an external latent space.

End-to-end masked-image VAE plus normalizing flow yields FID 2.50 on ImageNet 256 with 128 tokens and higher linear-probe accuracy than unmasked counterparts.
MIND integrates discrete patch tokenization into diffusion score functions via soft top-k and dual-branch layers, achieving FID 22.73 (no guidance) and 2.06 (with guidance) on ImageNet-256 after 80 epochs, outperforming DiT and larger LlamaGen models.
A pixel-space network that injects frozen DINOv3 semantic features through spatially continuous per-pixel modulation reports state-of-the-art PSNR/SSIM/LPIPS on LOLv2-Real (29.08/0.902/0.089) and the best average across four paired LLIE benchmarks.
A vanilla Diffusion Transformer trained via x-prediction on frozen DINOv2 features reaches FID 1.14 on ImageNet 256x256 with fewer parameters and faster sampling than prior DiT variants.
WavFlow performs direct waveform audio generation via flow matching on 2D token grids from raw patches plus amplitude lifting, matching latent-based methods on VGGSound and AudioCaps without intermediate compression.
A learned 32-channel semantic compression lets a normalizing flow reach gFID 1.65 on ImageNet 256×256, the best FID reported for flow-based image generation.
Cumulative flow maps unify few-step generative modeling for diffusion and flow models via cumulative transport and parameterization with minimal changes to time embeddings and objectives.
Tuna-2 shows that direct pixel embeddings can replace vision encoders in unified multimodal models, achieving competitive generation and stronger understanding at scale.

Continuous adversarial flow models replace MSE in flow matching with adversarial training via a discriminator, improving guidance-free FID on ImageNet from 8.26 to 3.63 for SiT and similar gains for JiT and text-to-image benchmarks.
PAR is a multi-scale autoregressive transformer framework for protein backbone generation that uses coarse-to-fine prediction, noisy context learning, and flow-based decoding to achieve high-quality unconditional and zero-shot conditional outputs.
PixelDiT generates images in pixel space with a dual-level transformer and reaches 1.61 FID on ImageNet 256, outperforming prior pixel-space models.
SURF accelerates high-resolution video generation up to 12.5x by using noise reshifting for low-res previews from pretrained models and a shifting-window Refiner for efficient upscaling that retains original signatures.
DeCo decouples high- and low-frequency generation in pixel diffusion via a DiT plus lightweight decoder and a frequency-aware flow-matching loss, reaching FID 1.62 at 256x256 and 2.22 at 512x512 on ImageNet while closing the gap to latent diffusion methods.
Directly predicting clean data with large-patch pixel Transformers enables strong generative performance in diffusion models where noise prediction fails at high dimensions.
x-prediction maintains manifold adherence during training-free diffusion guidance better than ε- or v-prediction, per theoretical analysis and experiments on bird classification and style transfer.
