Learning Interaction between Image and Layout Priors for Joint Image-Layout Generation in Design Templates

The paper introduces InterIL, a joint generative model that simultaneously produces a background image and a layout of foreground elements for graphic design templates, addressing the limitations of sequential generation approaches. InterIL connects pretrained image and layout diffusion backbones via a learnable communication module, freezing the backbones to preserve prior knowledge while training only the interaction module. The model also offers a test‑time guidance strategy, enabling users to impose preferences without retraining, and demonstrates superior image, layout, and harmonization quality compared to previous methods.

Design Choices That Matter: A Functional ANOVA Analysis for Remote Sensing Multi-Label Classification

Benchmarking deep learning (DL) models for multi-label classification (MLC) of remote sensing images (RSI) typically yields rankings that do not generalize beyond the evaluated datasets. In this work, we move beyond rankings by employing functional analysis of variance (fANOVA) to systematically quantify the contributions of individual design choices and their interactions to performance variability.

SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B‑MoT native unified multimodal model that can understand, reason about, and generate visual content without using an encoder or VAE. It improves visual fidelity and text rendering through spatially coherent patch reconstruction, large‑scale training on curated generation and editing data, and native resolutions up to 4K. Post‑training, specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing are optimized and distilled into a multi‑expert framework, yielding advances in image fidelity, complex composition, multi‑reference editing, and instruction following.
