arXiv:2607. 07665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules.

Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules. We analyze CFG through an asymptotic-preserving, numerical-analysis lens.

CacheScope is a training‑free method that accelerates diffusion transformer inference by selectively replacing full denoising steps with cached approximations. It identifies high‑risk reuse steps online by normalizing probe‑output variation with input displacement, allowing the system to fall back to exact computation only when necessary. The approach achieves up to 3.57× speed‑up and reduces median LPIPS by up to 70.1% on several state‑of‑the‑art models without requiring additional training or offline scheduling.

arXiv:2607. 19725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the default mechanism for conditional generation in diffusion models, but the distribution sampled by its deterministic guided dynamics is not captured by the usual product-distribution heuristic $p_0^\omega q_0^{1-\omega}$.
