Recent image generators have demonstrated impressive photorealism and instruction-following capabilities in single-image generation and editing. However, constrained by their architectures, they cannot achieve interleaved generation (text-image sequence), which has crucial applications in visual narratives, guidance, and embodied manipulation.
DAGS introduces a lightweight, attention‑free conditioning scheme that disentangles appearance and geometry for a frozen image diffusion transformer (DiT), enabling high‑fidelity, temporally stable renders with independent control. Two small convolutional encoders generate per‑frame conditioning features, which are injected as learned residuals into the image tokens, avoiding the quadratic cost of attention. Coupled with a recurrent lighting stabilizer and a training‑free temporal guidance term, DAGS transforms a per‑frame image model into a streaming renderer that outperforms real‑time denoisers and diffusion renderers in PSNR and temporal stability while requiring far less compute than path tracing.

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.

CF‑VLA introduces a two‑stage coarse‑to‑fine approach for vision‑language‑action policies, replacing multi‑step sampling with a coarse initialization that constructs an action‑aware starting point and a single‑step refinement that corrects residual errors. The coarse stage learns a conditional posterior over endpoint velocity to transform Gaussian noise into a structured initialization, while the fine stage performs a fixed‑time refinement. Experiments on CALVIN and LIBERO demonstrate that CF‑VLA achieves a strong efficiency‑performance trade‑off, reducing action sampling latency by 75.4 % and achieving an 83.0 % real‑robot success rate, outperforming existing NFE=2 methods and matching or surpassing NFE=10 baselines.

arXiv:2602. 20360v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Flow-based generative methods offer a simple and effective framework for high-fidelity generation, yet pretrained flow models are rarely used in their vanilla conditional form: in image generation, samples without guidance often appear diffuse and lack fine-grained detail.

arXiv:2607. 29235v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although world-action models (WAMs) enhance long-horizon robot control by predicting visual evolution before acting, long-horizon reliability demands repeated re-grounding in real observations--not recursive rollout.

LongLive‑Plug is a once‑for‑all distillation framework that learns reusable LoRA adapters on a base video diffusion model, enabling training‑free, plug‑and‑play deployment to a wide range of downstream models. These adapters provide single‑pass classifier‑free guidance, few‑step sampling, and long‑context error correction for autoregressive generation, and remain effective even when downstream models add conditioning branches or expand output channels. The authors demonstrate that the approach works on 54 downstream models across three backbone families and eight task categories, including world modeling, robotics, editing, and multimodal generation.
