arXiv:2607. 27372v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The deep learning revolution, kicked off by AlexNet, taught us that end-to-end training beats decomposing a problem into hand-designed stages.

arXiv:2607. 06856v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prior work suggests that diffusion representations capture low-level geometry but struggle with high-level semantics.

arXiv:2606. 00583v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent diffusion transformers have demonstrated strong image synthesis capabilities but remain inefficient to train due to weak alignment between generative and discriminative representations.

arXiv:2606. 31683v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models have emerged as a dominant paradigm in generative modeling, enabling high-fidelity sampling from complex data distributions.

arXiv:2607. 09892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce DenseAR, a new generative paradigm that reformulates autoregressive image generation as coarse-to-fine next-dense-stride prediction using a compact single-scale tokenizer.

arXiv:2607. 05319v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study why diffusion autoencoders can achieve similar image quality while learning substantially different latent structures.
