Recent advances in diffusion models have shown impressive performance in controllable image generation and dense prediction tasks. However, existing approaches typically treat diffusion-based controllable generation and dense prediction as separate tasks, overlooking the potential benefits of jointly modeling the heterogeneous distributions.

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.
