MaskSense: Confronting the Visual Exploration Trap in Masked Image Generation

Yawen Shao, Jie Xiao, Kai Zhu +6

Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown strong potential for aligning generative models with human intent, but adapting RL to masked generative models (MGMs) remains largely underexp…

Back on Track: Aligning Rewards and States for Reasoning in Diffusion Large Language Models

Yawen Shao, Jie Xiao, Kai Zhu +6

Reinforcement learning (RL) holds immense promise for enhancing the reasoning capabilities of diffusion large language models (dLLMs). However, progress is fundamentally constraine…

FACM: Flow-Anchored Consistency Models

Yansong Peng, Kai Zhu, Yu Liu +4

Continuous-time Consistency Models (CMs) promise efficient few-step generation but face significant challenges with training instability. We argue this instability stems from a fun…
