The paper argues that large-scale text‑to‑image models can be trained effectively on ImageNet, provided the dataset is enriched with carefully crafted text and image augmentations. Using this approach, the authors match the performance of state‑of‑the‑art models such as FLUX, surpassing SD3 on GenEval by +5 points and SDXL on DPGBench by +12, while employing only 1/1000th of the training images and significantly fewer parameters. The method requires just 500 hours of H100 GPU time, making it a more reproducible and accessible alternative to massive web‑scraped datasets.

The paper introduces a post‑training approach that enables a single inference process to transition from text reasoning to image synthesis, eliminating the need for explicit modality switching. Using the 14B BAGEL model, the authors demonstrate that targeted post‑training data and reward‑weighted training improve multimodal image generation across four independent T2I benchmarks. The study highlights the benefits of joint text‑image generation and strategic data selection for enhancing T2I performance.

Diffusion and flow matching models have made significant progress in text-to-image generation, yet high computation, quadratic complexity, and large memory footprint hinder high-resolution synthesis and edge deployment. We propose Nexus, which integrates sparse architecture, linear complexity, and low-bit quantization.

LLaDA-Image is a unified framework that couples a 6B Diffusion Transformer (DiT) trained from scratch with a frozen vision‑language module based on the LLaDA2.0‑Mini diffusion language model. The approach first builds a strong visual generative prior through image‑only pre‑training and mid‑training, then fine‑tunes with a 220M‑sample generation pipeline that includes 98 real images. The resulting model produces highly photorealistic images that accurately follow fine‑grained editing instructions, and a distilled version, LLaDA‑Image‑Turbo, enables fast inference in 2–4 sampling steps. On Qwen‑Image‑Bench, LLaDA‑Image sets new state‑of‑the‑art scores for open‑source models in both English and Chinese tracks, and the authors release weights, code, and detailed recipes to support further research.

The paper introduces continuous adversarial flow models, a continuous-time flow framework trained with an adversarial objective that replaces the fixed mean-squared-error criterion of flow matching. By incorporating a learned discriminator, the method guides training toward a different generalized distribution, yielding samples more closely aligned with the target data distribution. Applied as a post‑training step, it markedly improves ImageNet 256px generation metrics—reducing the guidance‑free FID of latent‑space SiT from 8.26 to 3.63 and of pixel‑space JiT from 7.17 to 3.57—and also enhances guided generation and text‑to‑image benchmarks.
Swift-Image is a compact unified model that performs text-to-image generation, single-image editing, and multi-image editing using a 6B parameter DiT architecture. It employs a progressive training pipeline, parallel expert reinforcement learning, and multi-teacher distillation to balance diverse objectives, while a Prompt Enhancer decouples high-level reasoning from pixel-level rendering. After training, structural pruning and few-step distillation produce efficient 3B and accelerated variants that maintain near‑lossless performance and improve editing efficiency.
