Real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR) aims to reconstruct high-quality (HQ) images from low-quality (LQ) inputs subject to diverse real-world degradations. Recent advances have leveraged the LQ inputs and natural image priors learned by Stable Diffusion models to achieve impressive results.
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.
Recent diffusion editors perform diverse instruction-based edits while conditioning on the source image at every denoising step. Yet persistent source-image conditioning can limit how fully an edit is executed and how natural the result appears, especially when the target scene diverges substantially from the input.

arXiv:2608. 14038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern text-to-image diffusion models rely on classifier-free guidance (CFG) to achieve high image fidelity and text alignment.

Diffusion transformer (DiT) research on image generation has converged to a single evaluation setup: class-conditional generation on ImageNet. While methods improve the FID and related metrics, it is increasingly unclear whether they reflect real progress in generative modeling.
