arXiv:2607. 09892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce DenseAR, a new generative paradigm that reformulates autoregressive image generation as coarse-to-fine next-dense-stride prediction using a compact single-scale tokenizer.
arXiv:2608. 08135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-modality medical image translation can reduce the burden of multi-modal acquisitions, yet the field remains constrained by two coupled limitations: methods operate on 2D slices or 3D patches rather than whole volumes, and train a separate model for each translation task.

MIAR introduces a multi‑scale autoregressive framework for medical image super‑resolution, treating the task as a conditional, progressive next‑scale prediction. It incorporates a Scale‑Adaptive Structural Decoder to preserve structural fidelity and uses a hierarchical beam search during inference to reduce recursive error accumulation. Experiments show MIAR outperforms existing methods, achieving a 7.86% MUSIQ improvement and a 2.02× speedup over diffusion‑based approaches.
The paper introduces MTAR, a training framework for autoregressive image generation that enhances performance through multi-token prediction, token-level contrastive regularization, and semantic dropping. These components address sparse supervision, improve representation discriminability, and accelerate training without affecting inference. On ImageNet, MTAR outperforms LlamaGen with lower FID and faster training, achieving comparable results in only a third of the iterations.
arXiv:2607. 00371v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual AutoRegressive modeling (VAR) has pioneered a coarse-to-fine multi-scale autoregressive generative paradigm, demonstrating strong capabilities in image generation.
ARGenSeg introduces an autoregressive generation-based approach for image segmentation that integrates seamlessly with multimodal large language models (MLLMs). Unlike prior methods that use boundary points or dedicated segmentation heads, ARGenSeg generates dense masks directly through visual token output and detokenization via a universal VQ‑VAE, enabling fine‑grained pixel‑level perception. The framework employs a next‑scale‑prediction strategy to parallelize token generation, resulting in faster inference while outperforming state‑of‑the‑art segmentation models on multiple datasets.

arXiv:2509. 23876v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) models based on next-scale prediction have emerged as a powerful tool for image generation, but they face a critical weakness: information inconsistencies between patches across timesteps introduced by progressive resolution scaling.
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.

UVU is a vision-language unified autoregressive framework that integrates visual supervision directly into the pre-training stage of multimodal large language models. By using continuous visual encoding and a large-scale iterative hierarchical clustering algorithm to build a pixel-level visual codebook, UVU enables lossless representation of visual inputs and autoregressive generation of pixel-level image tokens alongside textual tokens. This approach synergizes pixel-level visual perception with semantic-level visual understanding, allowing models to internalize visual reconstruction capabilities and improve multimodal understanding performance.
