FrameForge: Harnessing Priors of Video Foundation Models for Unified Image Generation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

FrameForge introduces a unified image generation framework that leverages pretrained video foundation models to capture dynamic temporal relationships between conditions and targets. It employs a Mixture of Temporal Experts (MoTE) to adaptively select temporal intervals and a Chain of Temporal Reasoning (CoTR) to model transformations through latent intermediate states, guided by a reasoning-bottleneck attention mask. Experiments on DreamBench, COCO2017, and GEdit-Bench demonstrate FrameForge’s superior performance in subject-driven generation, canny-to-image generation, and image editing compared to existing methods.

ProAR: Learning Prospective Reasoning with Autoregressive Video Models

ProAR introduces a goal‑oriented reasoning framework for autoregressive video models, adding goal‑frame prediction via an asymmetric attention mask and future representation self‑alignment to guide intermediate states. These mechanisms combine sparse target supervision with dense step‑wise guidance, enabling coherent, goal‑directed generation while keeping computational costs modest. Experiments demonstrate consistent performance gains across visual reasoning benchmarks and training efficiency, achieving comparable results to fully trained baselines with only 25% of the training steps.
