arXiv:2603. 28762v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern Text-to-Image (T2I) diffusion models have achieved remarkable semantic alignment, yet they often suffer from a significant lack of variety, converging on a narrow set of visual solutions for any given prompt.

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.

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,...
InstantFusion introduces a lightweight shared latent interface that enables cross-model state translation between heterogeneous image generators. By training model-specific Latent AutoEncoders to project intermediate denoising states into a common latent space, the method aligns states from the same image at matched noise levels and synchronizes their local denoising velocities. This allows seamless denoising transitions across frozen generators, supporting applications such as acceleration, multi-preference composition, on-policy distillation, and cross-model composition.

The paper investigates how long, richly detailed prompts cause modern text-to-image models to lose diversity, even when many visual aspects are unspecified. It introduces PromptMoG, a training‑free method that samples prompt embeddings from a Mixture‑of‑Gaussians distribution to restore diversity while preserving semantic fidelity. The authors also present LPD‑Bench, a benchmark for evaluating fidelity and diversity under long, semantically dense prompts, and demonstrate PromptMoG’s effectiveness on four large diffusion models.

arXiv:2606. 06813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent text-to-image models built on large-scale Transformer backbones and flow-based objectives deliver strong text-image alignment and high visual quality, yet often produce overly similar samples under a fixed prompt.

The paper introduces LLMAE, a technique that transforms a pretrained decoder-only language model into a continuous text autoencoder by inserting a fixed-length latent bottleneck into its internal activations. Using a 270M Gemma 3 model with structured attention masks, LoRA adaptation, and KL regularization, LLMAE achieves near-perfect reconstruction of text sequences up to 1024 tokens. The authors further show that the resulting latent representation can be leveraged to train a latent text diffusion model for detailed image captioning, demonstrating downstream utility.

Unlike diffusion-based models that operate in continuous latent spaces, autoregressive unified multimodal models produce images by sequentially predicting discretized visual tokens. These tokens are derived from a codebook that maps embeddings to quantized visual patterns.
