arXiv:2607. 28760v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As image generation models scale to ever higher resolutions, global coherence, local detail, and texture fidelity become critical axes for generation quality.
Pixel-space generative models bypass lossy latent compression, yet necessitate joint learning of global structure and fine-grained details in a high-dimensional space. Standard flow matching interpolates noise toward a fixed clean-image endpoint, leaving the spectral evolution to be learned implicitly.
arXiv:2608. 10544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image restoration is fundamentally constrained by the tradeoff between distortion and perception: minimizing pixel-wise error yields over-smoothed results, whereas optimizing for perceptual realism often introduces structural deviations.
arXiv:2608. 00111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image restoration quality can be evaluated along three complementary facets: pixel-level fidelity, human perception, and downstream machine preference.
Most existing extreme compression methods fail to achieve an optimal rate-distortion-perception trade-off, as they typically prioritize perceptual fidelity and visual realism over pixel-level accuracy. Consequently, the resulting reconstructions often deviate noticeably from the originals.
arXiv:2606. 27978v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pixel-space continuous-token autoregressive (AR) generation directly models images as sequences of raw pixel patches, avoiding discrete tokenization or a separately pretrained tokenizer.
arXiv:2608. 09133v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image super-resolution (SR) with large generative models has recently achieved remarkable perceptual quality, yet maintaining fidelity to the LR observation remains challenging.
Vision encoders are a critical component of vision-language models, and scaling their capacity effectively improves performance. However, dense scaling increases compute cost and inference latency.
arXiv:2606. 09056v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video generative models have become increasingly powerful, but long-range consistency remains challenging to achieve because even a few dozen frames require impractically long transformer sequence lengths.
arXiv:2608. 15349v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To accelerate single image super-resolution (SISR) networks on large images (2K-8K), many recent approaches decompose an image into small patches and dynamically determine an execution path according to its difficulty (referred to as a dynamic network).
arXiv:2607. 08794v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sand boils on earthen levees are safety-critical defects, but pixel-level detection is limited by scarce annotations.
arXiv:2607. 19064v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large-scale visual generators are increasingly capable but costly to train, fine-tune, and deploy.
arXiv:2602. 13357v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) achieve state-of-the-art performance in high-fidelity image and video generation but suffer from expensive inference due to their iterative denoising structure.
