Twins: Learn to Predict Unified Representations with Focal Loss
Kaixiong Gong, Xin Cai, Bin Lin +9
Unified multimodal models seek a shared visual token space that supports both multimodal understanding and image generation. Discrete methods unify the interface via a shared codeb…
Think, Plan, Paint: Layout-Aware Reasoning for Controllable Image Generation in Unified Models
Junhao Liu, Jian-Wei Zhang, Tao Huang +3
Unified Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) offer a promising paradigm for unifying visual understanding and generation, yet they still struggle to follow complex spatial inst…
GEAR: Guided End-to-End AutoRegression for Image Synthesis
Bin Lin, Zheyuan Liu, Chenguo Lin +8
Visual generative models are typically trained in two stages. A tokenizer is first trained for reconstruction and then frozen, after which a generator is trained on its discrete in…
iFSQ: Improving FSQ for Image Generation with 1 Line of Code
Bin Lin, Zongjian Li, Yuwei Niu +9
The field of image generation is currently bifurcated into autoregressive (AR) models operating on discrete tokens and diffusion models utilizing continuous latents. This divide, r…
