abstract
Recent Progress in post-training flow matching for text-to-image (T2I) generation with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has demonstrated strong potential. However, it is hindered by a critical limitation: inaccurate advantage attribution. In this work, we argue that aggregating consecutive steps into a coherent `chunk' and shifting the policy optimization paradigm from GRPO's step level to the chunk level can effectively mitigate the negative impact of this issue. Building on this insight, we propose Group Chunking Policy Optimization (GCPO), the first chunk-level reinforcement learning approach for post-training flow matching. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GCPO achieves superior performance on both standard T2I benchmarks and preference alignment, with up to 43% relative gains over GRPO, highlighting the promise of chunk-level policy optimization. The code is available on https://github.com/xingzhejun/GCPO.

RAVEN aligns training and inference for causal autoregressive video diffusion via interleaved rollout repacking and introduces CM-GRPO for direct RL on consistency-model kernels, claiming better quality than recent baselines.
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.
