When Geometry Aligns: Dihedral Hidden-State Transformations in UNet, ViT, and DiT Architectures

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2607. 03580v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion architectures now encompass convolutional UNets as well as transformer-based designs such as Diffusion Transformers (DiTs), inspired by Vision Transformers (ViTs), yet the effects of structured geometric perturbations within these architectures remain poorly understood.

DiverseDiT++: Quantifying, Analyzing, and Promoting Representation Diversity in Diffusion Transformers

Recent advances in Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have enabled remarkable progress in visual synthesis, benefiting from their superior scalability. To facilitate DiTs' capability of capturing meaningful internal representations, recent works such as REPA incorporate external pretrained encoders for representation alignment.

Rethinking Cross-Layer Information Routing in Diffusion Transformers

arXiv:2605. 20708v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have become a de facto backbone of modern visual generation, and nearly every major axis of their design -- tokenization, attention, conditioning, objectives, and latent autoencoders -- has been extensively revisited.

Few Channels Draw The Whole Picture: Revealing Massive Activations in Diffusion Transformers

arXiv:2605. 13974v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) and related flow-based architectures are now among the strongest text-to-image generators, yet the internal mechanisms through which prompts shape image semantics remain poorly understood.

Pulling The REINS: Training-Free Safety Alignment of Video Diffusion Models via Representation Steering

arXiv:2606. 17257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-weight video diffusion models can generate photorealistic unsafe content, from violence to misinformation, yet existing defenses either require expensive safety fine-tuning that degrades general capability, or apply external filters that are trivially bypassed by adversarial prompts.
