The paper introduces Semantic Boundary Predictor (SBP), an inference‑time framework that improves demographic fairness in synthetic face generation by applying a single, one‑shot intervention during reverse denoising. SBP learns linear semantic boundaries from late‑stage latent representations and applies them only at the initial noisy latent, leaving the rest of the diffusion process unchanged. Experiments on CelebA‑HQ show significant reductions in fairness disparity—98% for gender, 95% for binary race, and 15% for four‑class race—while preserving image quality across demographic groups.
The paper introduces EC²Face, a multimodal face synthesis framework that enhances semantic alignment by combining Explicit Conditional Consistency Guidance (ECCG) and Long‑Tail Adaptive Flow Matching (LAFM). ECCG enforces pixel‑level consistency between generated faces, textual descriptions, and semantic masks, while a temporal dynamic modulation adjusts supervision strength over diffusion timesteps. LAFM reweights spatial optimization signals according to attribute frequency, improving rare attribute synthesis without adding inference overhead. Experiments demonstrate that EC²Face outperforms baselines, achieving a 29.38% improvement in mask accuracy for rare attributes.
