ViSA: 3D-Aware Video Shading for Real-Time Upper-Body Avatar Creation
Fan Yang, Heyuan Li, Peihao Li +9
Generating high-fidelity upper-body 3D avatars from one-shot input image remains a significant challenge. Current 3D avatar generation methods, which rely on large reconstruction m…
Live Avatar: Streaming Real-time Audio-Driven Avatar Generation with Infinite Length
Yubo Huang, Hailong Guo, Fangtai Wu +9
Audio-driven avatar interaction demands real-time, streaming, and infinite-length generation -- capabilities fundamentally at odds with the sequential denoising and long-horizon dr…
Decoupled DMD: CFG Augmentation as the Spear, Distribution Matching as the Shield
Dongyang Liu, Peng Gao, David Liu +8
Diffusion model distillation has emerged as a powerful technique for creating efficient few-step and single-step generators. Among these, Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) a…
Z-Image: An Efficient Image Generation Foundation Model with Single-Stream Diffusion Transformer
Image Team, Huanqia Cai, Sihan Cao +21
The landscape of high-performance image generation models is currently dominated by proprietary systems, such as Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 4.0. Leading open-source alternatives,…
A Practical Investigation of Spatially-Controlled Image Generation with Transformers
Guoxuan Xia, Harleen Hanspal, Petru-Daniel Tudosiu +2
Enabling image generation models to be spatially controlled is an important area of research, empowering users to better generate images according to their own fine-grained specifi…
TurboVSR: Fantastic Video Upscalers and Where to Find Them
Zhongdao Wang, Guodongfang Zhao, Jingjing Ren +3
Diffusion-based generative models have demonstrated exceptional promise in the video super-resolution (VSR) task, achieving a substantial advancement in detail generation relative…
FUDOKI: Discrete Flow-based Unified Understanding and Generation via Kinetic-Optimal Velocities
Jin Wang, Yao Lai, Aoxue Li +6
The rapid progress of large language models (LLMs) has catalyzed the emergence of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) that unify visual understanding and image generation with…
LiT: Delving into a Simple Linear Diffusion Transformer for Image Generation
Jiahao Wang, Ning Kang, Lewei Yao +12
In this paper, we investigate how to convert a pre-trained Diffusion Transformer (DiT) into a linear DiT, as its simplicity, parallelism, and efficiency for image generation. Throu…
Generating Compositional Scenes via Text-to-image RGBA Instance Generation
Alessandro Fontanella, Petru-Daniel Tudosiu, Yongxin Yang +2
Text-to-image diffusion generative models can generate high quality images at the cost of tedious prompt engineering. Controllability can be improved by introducing layout conditio…
MULAN: A Multi Layer Annotated Dataset for Controllable Text-to-Image Generation
Petru-Daniel Tudosiu, Yongxin Yang, Shifeng Zhang +5
Text-to-image generation has achieved astonishing results, yet precise spatial controllability and prompt fidelity remain highly challenging. This limitation is typically addressed…
Accelerating Diffusion Sampling with Optimized Time Steps
Shuchen Xue, Zhaoqiang Liu, Fei Chen +4
Diffusion probabilistic models (DPMs) have shown remarkable performance in high-resolution image synthesis, but their sampling efficiency is still to be desired due to the typicall…
Optimisation-Based Multi-Modal Semantic Image Editing
Bowen Li, Yongxin Yang, Steven McDonagh +3
Image editing affords increased control over the aesthetics and content of generated images. Pre-existing works focus predominantly on text-based instructions to achieve desired im…
DARTS+: Improved Differentiable Architecture Search with Early Stopping
Hanwen Liang, Shifeng Zhang, Jiacheng Sun +4
Recently, there has been a growing interest in automating the process of neural architecture design, and the Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS) method makes the process ava…
