PhotoFramer: Multi-modal Image Composition Instruction
Zhiyuan You, Ke Wang, He Zhang +5
Composition matters during the photo-taking process, yet many casual users struggle to frame well-composed images. To provide composition guidance, we introduce PhotoFramer, a mult…
EditVerse: Unifying Image and Video Editing and Generation with In-Context Learning
Xuan Ju, Tianyu Wang, Yuqian Zhou +11
Recent advances in foundation models highlight a clear trend toward unification and scaling, showing emergent capabilities across diverse domains. While image generation and editin…
How Long Can Unified Multimodal Models Generate Images Reliably? Taming Long-Horizon Interleaved Image Generation via Context Curation
Haoyu Chen, Qing Liu, Yuqian Zhou +7
Unified multimodal models hold the promise of generating extensive, interleaved narratives, weaving text and imagery into coherent long-form stories. However, current systems suffe…
Both Semantics and Reconstruction Matter: Making Representation Encoders Ready for Text-to-Image Generation and Editing
Shilong Zhang, He Zhang, Zhifei Zhang +11
Modern Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs) typically operate in low-level Variational Autoencoder (VAE) latent spaces that are primarily optimized for pixel-level reconstruction. To uni…
HBridge: H-Shape Bridging of Heterogeneous Experts for Unified Multimodal Understanding and Generation
Xiang Wang, Zhifei Zhang, He Zhang +11
Recent unified models integrate understanding experts (e.g., LLMs) with generative experts (e.g., diffusion models), achieving strong multimodal performance. However, recent advanc…
EmbeddingGemma: Powerful and Lightweight Text Representations
Henrique Schechter Vera, Sahil Dua, Biao Zhang +86
We introduce EmbeddingGemma, a new lightweight, open text embedding model based on the Gemma 3 language model family. Our innovative training recipe strategically captures knowledg…
