VISTA is a gradient‑based test‑time alignment framework designed for next‑scale visual autoregressive (VAR) image generation. It optimizes intermediate representations within the frozen transformer to enforce compositional constraints, without altering model weights or requiring extra training. Experiments on two benchmarks and two model scales show that VISTA improves compositional accuracy by up to 20% on a 2B backbone and 6% on an 8B backbone, while preserving image quality and enabling a smaller model to outperform a larger one.

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.
Modern computer vision pipelines remain fragmented, with tasks such as text-to-image generation, editing, restoration, and classical perception handled by separate models. We study Unified Visual Generation (UVG), where a single model produces diverse image-valued outputs through a unified multimodal interface.
