arXiv:2607. 16294v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Paired image-to-image translation underpins a wide range of computer vision tasks, including image editing, sensor translation, and domain adaptation.
arXiv:2606. 00583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent diffusion transformers have demonstrated strong image synthesis capabilities but remain inefficient to train due to weak alignment between generative and discriminative representations.
arXiv:2608. 06240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unpaired image-to-image translation must decide, per image, what to change and what to preserve without paired supervision.

arXiv:2606. 16799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing vision-language model (VLM)-based AI-generated image quality assessment (AIGIQA) methods suffer from a fundamental semantic-distortion dimensional conflict: monolithic representations optimized for semantic discrimination inherently entangle compositional understanding with low-level perceptual sensitivity, rendering them blind to fine-grained quality degradations.
VISTA is a gradient‑based test‑time alignment framework designed for next‑scale visual autoregressive (VAR) image generation. It optimizes intermediate representations within the frozen transformer to enforce compositional constraints, without altering model weights or requiring extra training. Experiments on two benchmarks and two model scales show that VISTA improves compositional accuracy by up to 20% on a 2B backbone and 6% on an 8B backbone, while preserving image quality and enabling a smaller model to outperform a larger one.
arXiv:2606. 24716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are increasingly used to extract interpretable concepts from vision and vision language models, yet existing evaluation methods largely rely on proxy metrics or qualitative inspection rather than measuring semantic correspondence.
Visual autoregressive (VAR) models have emerged as a fast, high-quality alternative to diffusion for text-to-image generation, but like diffusion models they exhibit persistent compositional failures,...
