arXiv:2602. 05305v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating long-form content, such as minute-long videos and extended texts, is increasingly important for modern generative models.
Reference-based diffusion models enable highly controllable image generation by leveraging elements from input images to guide prompt-driven synthesis. However, these models are computationally expensive in runtime, and their cost scales severely with the number of input references.
Subject-driven image personalization---generating new images that preserve the identity of one or several reference subjects in novel scenes---is a foundational capability for modern visual content creation. It is currently dominated by generalized methods that fine-tune a pretrained multimodal diffusion transformer (MMDiT) on hundreds of thousands to millions of paired \emph{(reference, composed-target)} examples, where each composed target is a synthesized image of the subject in a novel scene.
arXiv:2606. 14125v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inversion-based image editing offers flexible and training-free control but still struggles with inversion accuracy and the trade-off between editing fidelity and background preservation.
arXiv:2606. 13898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Creative image editing tools, such as Photoshop's Remove or Generative Fill buttons, are central to everyday customer use and account for a major share of traffic in Photoshop and Lightroom.
arXiv:2606.18974v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Unified multimodal models (UMMs) interleave generated ''visual thoughts'' (VTs) with text reasoning to improve spatial tasks. This incurs roughly a...
