The paper introduces a decoder that generates images whose features closely match a user-specified feature, enabling detailed analysis of a vision-related deep neural network’s feature space. Implemented as a guided diffusion model, it steers a pre-trained diffusion model to minimize the Euclidean distance between the feature of a clean image and the target feature at each generation step. The method is training‑free, works on a single COTS GPU, and has been validated on CLIP’s image encoder and ResNet‑50, showing high feature‑matching accuracy and practical feasibility.

Unified image restoration (UIR) aims to recover high-quality (HQ) content from low-quality (LQ) images with different degradations using a single model. Most recent methods adapt large pretrained text-to-image (T2I) latent diffusion models for their strong capacity and generative priors.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have demonstrated encouraging results in image classification tasks. However, the prohibitive computational cost of CNNs hinders the deployment of CNNs onto resource-constrained embedded devices.
V-Co investigates visual co-denoising for pixel-space diffusion models, using a unified JiT-based framework to isolate key design choices. The study identifies two essential components: a dual-stream architecture with flexible cross-stream interaction and a perceptual-drifting hybrid loss combined with RMS-based feature rescaling for stronger semantic supervision. Experiments on ImageNet-256 demonstrate that V-Co surpasses baseline pixel-space diffusion and strong prior pixel-diffusion methods at comparable model sizes while requiring fewer training epochs.
