DiT-Reward converts pretrained DiT models into reward predictors that outperform HPSv3 on four benchmarks while providing 1.65x inference speedup.
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.
Matched benchmarking reveals FID misleads in few-step regimes under CFG, prompting CLIP-scaled and PickScore-scaled FID and IS variants for better semantic evaluation of one-step image generators.
Feature self-guidance disperses internal features of flow models during batch generation and applies manifold regularization to increase output diversity while preserving condition alignment.
NanoGen unifies DiT training on ImageNet and T2I, reveals negative Pearson correlations (-0.377 to -0.580) in method rankings across metrics from 21 models, and motivates DiffusionBench for holistic evaluation.
HYDRA-X presents the first unified multimodal model using a single ViT for holistic image-video tokenization, with ablations on attention and compression plus a latent-level editing improvement.
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.
Spatial Gram Alignment aligns internal self-similarities of LDM features with foundation priors to reconcile global structure and fine details in ultra-high-resolution text-to-image synthesis.
RAE v2 reaches gFID 1.06 on ImageNet-256 in 80 epochs by combining multi-layer encoder sums, complementary REPA targets, and free guidance via output reparameterization.
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.
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.
Outlier tokens in DiTs are addressed with Dual-Stage Registers, which reduce artifacts and improve image generation on ImageNet and text-to-image tasks.
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.
A 5B-parameter text-to-image model trained in 125K A800 GPU hours matches or beats much more expensive models on several benchmarks via semantic-first asynchronous diffusion.
GARD performs diffusion-based multi-view restoration in the feature space of a feed-forward 3D reconstructor to recover scene geometry and RGB images under degraded conditions, shown effective on the DA3 benchmark.
Semantic latent spaces from pretrained encoders outperform reconstruction-based spaces for robotic world models on planning and downstream policy performance.
Using understanding tasks as direct supervision during post-training improves image generation and editing in unified multimodal models.
PV-VAE improves video latent spaces for generation by unifying reconstruction with future-frame prediction, reporting 52% faster convergence and 34.42 FVD gain over Wan2.2 VAE on UCF101.
