arXiv:2607. 28760v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As image generation models scale to ever higher resolutions, global coherence, local detail, and texture fidelity become critical axes for generation quality.
Pixel-space generative models bypass lossy latent compression, yet necessitate joint learning of global structure and fine-grained details in a high-dimensional space. Standard flow matching interpolates noise toward a fixed clean-image endpoint, leaving the spectral evolution to be learned implicitly.
arXiv:2602. 13357v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) achieve state-of-the-art performance in high-fidelity image and video generation but suffer from expensive inference due to their iterative denoising structure.
The paper introduces CAT-Flow, a pair of lightweight, training‑free algorithms—CAT‑OV and CAT‑OT—that adapt step‑sizes during Flow Matching inference by estimating curvature in time or state space. These methods avoid extra neural evaluations and achieve constant‑order truncation error bounds. Experiments show that CAT‑OV and CAT‑OT improve image quality metrics across four text‑to‑image Flow Matching models, cutting the required generation steps by up to 40%.
arXiv:2607. 16283v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid advancement of generative AI has outpaced our ability to reliably detect its outputs, particularly when detectors encounter generators they have not seen before.
Diffusion-based generative models have achieved remarkable success in real-world image super-resolution (SR). With tiled diffusion techniques, these models can produce high-resolution images that exceed their native-supported resolution.
