Swift-Image is a compact unified model that performs text-to-image generation, single-image editing, and multi-image editing using a 6B parameter DiT architecture. It employs a progressive training pipeline, parallel expert reinforcement learning, and multi-teacher distillation to balance diverse objectives, while a Prompt Enhancer decouples high-level reasoning from pixel-level rendering. After training, structural pruning and few-step distillation produce efficient 3B and accelerated variants that maintain near‑lossless performance and improve editing efficiency.

We present Swift-Image, a compact unified model for text-to-image generation, single-image editing, and multi-image editing. Our goal is to explore how far a relatively small visual generator can be pushed through systematic training engineering under a constrained computational budget.
SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B‑MoT native unified multimodal model that can understand, reason about, and generate visual content without using an encoder or VAE. It improves visual fidelity and text rendering through spatially coherent patch reconstruction, large‑scale training on curated generation and editing data, and native resolutions up to 4K. Post‑training, specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing are optimized and distilled into a multi‑expert framework, yielding advances in image fidelity, complex composition, multi‑reference editing, and instruction following.

The paper introduces a post‑training approach that enables a single inference process to transition from text reasoning to image synthesis, eliminating the need for explicit modality switching. Using the 14B BAGEL model, the authors demonstrate that targeted post‑training data and reward‑weighted training improve multimodal image generation across four independent T2I benchmarks. The study highlights the benefits of joint text‑image generation and strategic data selection for enhancing T2I performance.

Large-scale visual generators are increasingly capable but costly to train, fine-tune, and deploy. We introduce Mage-Flow, a compact 4B-scale generative stack for efficient text-to-image generation and instruction-based image editing.
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.

The paper introduces a capability‑centric data infrastructure for generalist image generation, integrating task‑specific supervision with a curriculum that aligns with the dependencies among generative capabilities. It employs three interoperable data engines—text‑image grounding, inter‑image transformation, and image‑knowledge association—alongside caption experts to harmonize text‑to‑image and editing supervision. The system curates massive corpora (440M T2I images, 120M editing pairs, 27M image‑entity pairs) and trains multimodal diffusion models (3B and 6B parameters) from scratch, achieving broad visual coverage and versatile rendering as shown by CPI‑Bench and qualitative tests.
