What Matters for Diffusion-Friendly Latent Manifold? Prior-Aligned Autoencoders for Latent Diffusion
Zhengrong Yue, Taihang Hu, Mengting Chen +8
Tokenizers are a crucial component of latent diffusion models, as they define the latent space in which diffusion models operate. However, existing tokenizers are primarily designe…
Continuous-Time Distribution Matching for Few-Step Diffusion Distillation
Tao Liu, Hao Yan, Mengting Chen +8
Step distillation has become a leading technique for accelerating diffusion models, among which Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) and Consistency Distillation are two repres…
From Cradle to Cane: A Two-Pass Framework for High-Fidelity Lifespan Face Aging
Tao Liu, Dafeng Zhang, Gengchen Li +7
Face aging has become a crucial task in computer vision, with applications ranging from entertainment to healthcare. However, existing methods struggle with achieving a realistic a…
One-Way Ticket:Time-Independent Unified Encoder for Distilling Text-to-Image Diffusion Models
Senmao Li, Lei Wang, Kai Wang +7
Text-to-Image (T2I) diffusion models have made remarkable advancements in generative modeling; however, they face a trade-off between inference speed and image quality, posing chal…
One-Prompt-One-Story: Free-Lunch Consistent Text-to-Image Generation Using a Single Prompt
Tao Liu, Kai Wang, Senmao Li +6
Text-to-image generation models can create high-quality images from input prompts. However, they struggle to support the consistent generation of identity-preserving requirements f…
Faster Diffusion: Rethinking the Role of the Encoder for Diffusion Model Inference
Senmao Li, Taihang Hu, Joost van de Weijer +7
One of the main drawback of diffusion models is the slow inference time for image generation. Among the most successful approaches to addressing this problem are distillation metho…
