PhyGDPO: Physics-Aware Groupwise Direct Preference Optimization for Physically Consistent Text-to-Video Generation
Yuanhao Cai, Kunpeng Li, Menglin Jia +11
Recent advances in text-to-video (T2V) generation have achieved good visual quality, yet synthesizing videos that faithfully follow physical laws remains an open challenge. Existin…
Think in Strokes, Not Pixels: Process-Driven Image Generation via Interleaved Reasoning
Lei Zhang, Junjiao Tian, Zhipeng Fan +9
Humans paint images incrementally: they plan a global layout, sketch a coarse draft, inspect, and refine details, and most importantly, each step is grounded in the evolving visual…
Non-Markov Multi-Round Conversational Image Generation with History-Conditioned MLLMs
Haochen Zhang, Animesh Sinha, Felix Juefei-Xu +8
Conversational image generation requires a model to follow user instructions across multiple rounds of interaction, grounded in interleaved text and images that accumulate as chat…
REFA: Real-time Egocentric Facial Animations for Virtual Reality
Qiang Zhang, Tong Xiao, Haroun Habeeb +19
We present a novel system for real-time tracking of facial expressions using egocentric views captured from a set of infrared cameras embedded in a virtual reality (VR) headset. Ou…
Improving Chain-of-Thought Efficiency for Autoregressive Image Generation
Zeqi Gu, Markos Georgopoulos, Xiaoliang Dai +10
Autoregressive multimodal large language models have recently gained popularity for image generation, driven by advances in foundation models. To enhance alignment and detail, newe…
Token-Shuffle: Towards High-Resolution Image Generation with Autoregressive Models
Xu Ma, Peize Sun, Haoyu Ma +22
Autoregressive (AR) models, long dominant in language generation, are increasingly applied to image synthesis but are often considered less competitive than Diffusion-based models.…
