The paper introduces SatisDive, a training‑free inference method that balances reward and diversity in text‑to‑image diffusion by enforcing a reward floor for each image and a diversity cutoff for the batch. By adjusting the reward floor, the method traces a Pareto frontier between worst‑candidate reward and batch diversity. Experiments on Pick‑a‑Pic show that SatisDive consistently outperforms FK steering, improving worst‑candidate reward by up to 0.70 in some settings and Pareto‑dominating FK steering across overlapping DreamSim ranges.

FairRARI is a new in‑processing convex optimization framework that computes PageRank vectors while satisfying various group‑fairness constraints based on vertex attributes. By formulating PageRank as a variational problem, FairRARI solves a strongly convex problem that guarantees a target fairness level and retains the same asymptotic time complexity as standard PageRank. Experiments on real datasets show that FairRARI outperforms existing methods in utility while achieving the desired fairness across multiple vertex groups.
