V-Co: A Closer Look at Visual Representation Alignment via Co-Denoising

V-Co investigates visual co-denoising for pixel-space diffusion models, using a unified JiT-based framework to isolate key design choices. The study identifies two essential components: a dual-stream architecture with flexible cross-stream interaction and a perceptual-drifting hybrid loss combined with RMS-based feature rescaling for stronger semantic supervision. Experiments on ImageNet-256 demonstrate that V-Co surpasses baseline pixel-space diffusion and strong prior pixel-diffusion methods at comparable model sizes while requiring fewer training epochs.

LLaDA-Image: Building Strong Image Generators with Fully Open Training Recipes

LLaDA-Image is a unified framework that couples a 6B Diffusion Transformer (DiT) trained from scratch with a frozen vision‑language module based on the LLaDA2.0‑Mini diffusion language model. The approach first builds a strong visual generative prior through image‑only pre‑training and mid‑training, then fine‑tunes with a 220M‑sample generation pipeline that includes 98 real images. The resulting model produces highly photorealistic images that accurately follow fine‑grained editing instructions, and a distilled version, LLaDA‑Image‑Turbo, enables fast inference in 2–4 sampling steps. On Qwen‑Image‑Bench, LLaDA‑Image sets new state‑of‑the‑art scores for open‑source models in both English and Chinese tracks, and the authors release weights, code, and detailed recipes to support further research.
