Self-Consistent Flow: Unifying Velocity and Endpoint Prediction for Rectified Flow Models

In rectified-flow-based generative models, the neural network can be trained to predict two different targets, such as the instantaneous velocity or the data endpoint, to perform denoising. Although prior work shows that these parameterizations lead to different empirical behaviors, the mechanisms underlying their respective advantages remain to be underexplored, and how to combine them effectively is still unclear.

StableMotion: One-Step Motion Estimation with Diffusion Prior

arXiv:2505. 06668v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present StableMotion, a novel framework that leverages geometric and content priors from pretrained large-scale image diffusion models for motion estimation in single-image rectification tasks such as Stitched Image Rectangling (SIR) and Rolling Shutter Correction (RSC).

Drifting Preference Optimization for One-Step Generative Models

arXiv:2606. 02521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: One-step text-to-image generators are attractive for deployment because they generate an image with a single forward pass, but preference finetuning them remains difficult: standard alignment methods often rely on policy likelihoods, denoising trajectories, differentiable reward gradients, or test-time optimization.
