PAST: Prompt-Adaptive Sampling Termination for Efficient Diffusion Model
Renye Yan, Jikang Cheng, You Wu +4
While diffusion models have made significant progress in text-to-image tasks, they still exhibit limitations when directly optimizing downstream objectives. Although Reinforcement…
Explore or Converge? Stage-Guided Per-Step Optimization for Diffusion Models
Renye Yan, Jikang Cheng, You Wu +4
Diffusion models have strong generative capabilities. However, their maximum likelihood training objective only focuses on reconstructing the data distribution, making it difficult…
Do Less, Achieve More: Do We Need Every-Step Optimization for RL Fine-tuning of Diffusion Models?
Renye Yan, Jikang Cheng, Shikun Sun +7
Despite strong image-generation performance, diffusion models' reconstruction objectives limit alignment with human preferences. RL enables such alignment through explicit rewards.…
Diffusion Sampling Correction via Approximately 10 Parameters
Guangyi Wang, Wei Peng, Lijiang Li +3
While powerful for generation, Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DPMs) face slow sampling challenges, for which various distillation-based methods have been proposed. However, they t…
PFDiff: Training-Free Acceleration of Diffusion Models Combining Past and Future Scores
Guangyi Wang, Yuren Cai, Lijiang Li +2
Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DPMs) have shown remarkable potential in image generation, but their sampling efficiency is hindered by the need for numerous denoising steps. Most…
