GeoSPRINT is a training‑free framework that constructs non‑uniform sampling schedules for diffusion model inference by detecting geometrically redundant steps in denoising trajectories. It uses a hyperplanarity test in latent space, implemented via QR factorization, to allocate more steps to high‑curvature regions, and introduces the trajectory projection score α_traj as a model‑free diagnostic for flow quality. Across CIFAR‑10, LSUN Church, and Stable Diffusion v1.5, GeoSPRINT consistently outperforms uniform DDIM schedules at matched NFE budgets, improving FID scores by up to 1.93 points.

The paper introduces Clock Diffusion, a framework for semi‑autoregressive continuous diffusion language models that incorporates position‑dependent noise schedules, efficient training, and sampling algorithms. It presents two generation modes—block and sliding window—and defines ClockDLMs, a family of Gaussian models that achieve state‑of‑the‑art diffusion likelihoods on OpenWebText and outperform continuous baselines on GSM8K while matching or exceeding discrete diffusion models. The authors also propose Cache Grab, a set of efficient samplers that adapt accelerated inference techniques from discrete diffusion to further improve model quality and efficiency.

The paper introduces TRACK, a training‑free trajectory routing method that accelerates video diffusion by selectively switching between large and small models during denoising steps. A calibration process generates a disagreement score map, guiding the selection of the appropriate model at each step to maintain quality while reducing computational cost. Experiments on Wan 2.1, Cosmos 3, TurboDiffusion, and FastVideo show speedups ranging from 1.95× to 2.73× with comparable quality and diversity.
