The paper introduces SANA‑SR, an efficient one‑step diffusion restoration framework for real‑world image super‑resolution. It uses a deep compression autoencoder to reduce latent tokens by a 32× ratio, preserving essential structures and textures, and applies a linear‑attention DiT with LoRA fine‑tuning for linear‑complexity token mixing. Experiments show competitive or superior performance on benchmark datasets, and the pruned model runs in 0.019 s with 407.95 G MACs and 344 M parameters, indicating strong potential for mobile deployment.

GLOW-FM is a one‑step latent flow‑matching framework designed for efficient generative low‑light image enhancement (LLIE). It operates in the latent space of a frozen Tiny‑VAE, using Terminal Velocity Matching (TVM) to achieve high‑quality enhancement with a single function evaluation. Experiments on real‑world benchmarks show competitive image quality, strong cross‑dataset generalization, and low computational cost (34 GFLOPs for the small variant).

IDM-Net is a lightweight Illumination-Decoupled Modulation Network designed for low-light image enhancement. It uses a dual-encoder architecture: a structure encoder extracts multi-scale appearance features from the RGB image, while a lightweight illumination encoder learns illumination priors from the decoupled luminance channel. An Illumination-Guided Modulation module injects these priors into the decoder via spatially adaptive affine modulation, and a Feature Refinement Block progressively suppresses artifacts and recovers fine details, achieving competitive performance on standard benchmarks with good balance between quality and efficiency.

MirrorDistill introduces an illumination‑aware latent distillation framework for low‑light image enhancement. It trains a lightweight student encoder‑decoder by aligning its intermediate features with clean‑domain targets generated by a teacher decoder, using feature mirroring and illumination‑aware weighting to emphasize underexposed regions. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on the LOL‑v2‑Real benchmark while maintaining the lowest computational complexity, and the code is released as open source.
