While existing generation and unified models excel at general image generation, they struggle with tasks requiring deep reasoning, planning, and precise data-to-visual mapping abilities beyond general scenarios. To push beyond the existing limitations, we introduce a new and challenging task: creative table visualization, requiring the model to generate an infographic that faithfully and aesthetically visualizes the data from a given table. To address this challenge, we propose ShowTable, a pipeline that synergizes MLLMs with diffusion models via a progressive self-correcting process. The MLLM acts as the central orchestrator for reasoning the visual plan and judging visual errors to provide refined instructions, the diffusion execute the commands from MLLM, achieving high-fidelity results. To support this task and our pipeline, we introduce three automated data construction pipelines for training different modules. Furthermore, we introduce TableVisBench, a new benchmark with 800 challenging instances across 5 evaluation dimensions, to assess performance on this task. Experiments demonstrate that our pipeline, instantiated with different models, significantly outperforms baselines, highlighting its effective multi-modal reasoning, generation, and error correction capabilities.

In this work, we investigate the potential of weights to serve as effective representations, focusing on neural fields. Our key insight is that constraining the optimization space through a pre-trained base model and low-rank adaptation (LoRA) can induce structure in weight space. Across reconstruction, generation, and analysis tasks on 2D and 3D data, we find that multiplicative LoRA weights achieve high representation quality while exhibiting distinctiveness and semantic structure. When used with latent diffusion models, multiplicative LoRA weights enable higher-quality generation than existing weight-space methods.

Modern video diffusion models excel at appearance synthesis but still struggle with physical consistency: objects drift, collisions lack realistic rebound, and material responses seldom match their underlying properties. We present PhyCo, a framework that introduces continuous, interpretable, and physically grounded control into video generation. Our approach integrates three key components: (i) a large-scale dataset of over 100K photorealistic simulation videos where friction, restitution, deformation, and force are systematically varied across diverse scenarios; (ii) physics-supervised fine-tuning of a pretrained diffusion model using a ControlNet conditioned on pixel-aligned physical property maps; and (iii) VLM-guided reward optimization, where a fine-tuned vision-language model evaluates generated videos with targeted physics queries and provides differentiable feedback. This combination enables a generative model to produce physically consistent and controllable outputs through variations in physical attributes--without any simulator or geometry reconstruction at inference. On the Physics-IQ benchmark, PhyCo significantly improves physical realism over strong baselines, and human studies confirm clearer and more faithful control over physical attributes. Our results demonstrate a scalable path toward physically consistent, controllable generative video models that generalize beyond synthetic training environments.

Vision-language-action (VLA) models unify perception, language, and control for embodied agents but face significant challenges in practical deployment due to rapidly increasing compute and memory demands, especially as models scale to longer horizons and larger backbones. To address these bottlenecks, we introduce QuantVLA, a training-free post-training quantization (PTQ) framework that, to our knowledge, is the first PTQ approach for VLA systems and the first to successfully quantize a diffusion transformer (DiT) action head. QuantVLA incorporates three scale-calibrated components: (1) a selective quantization layout that integerizes all linear layers in both the language backbone and the DiT while keeping attention projections in floating point to preserve the original operator schedule; (2) attention temperature matching, a lightweight per-head scaling mechanism that stabilizes attention logits and is folded into the dequantization scales at inference; and (3) output head balancing, a per-layer residual interface calibration that mitigates post-projection energy drift. The framework requires no additional training, uses only a small unlabeled calibration buffer, and supports integer kernels for low-bit weights and activations while leaving the architecture unchanged. Across representative VLA models on LIBERO, QuantVLA exceeds the task success rates of full-precision baselines, achieves about 70% relative memory savings on the quantized components, providing a practical pathway toward scalable low-bit embodied intelligence under strict compute, memory, and power constraints.

Diffusion-based approaches have recently driven remarkable progress in real-world image super-resolution (SR). However, existing methods still struggle to simultaneously preserve fine details and ensure high-fidelity reconstruction, often resulting in suboptimal visual quality. In this paper, we propose FiDeSR, a high-fidelity and detail-preserving one-step diffusion super-resolution framework. During training, we introduce a detail-aware weighting strategy that adaptively emphasizes regions where the model exhibits higher prediction errors. During inference, low- and high-frequency adaptive enhancers further refine the reconstruction without requiring model retraining, enabling flexible enhancement control. To further improve the reconstruction accuracy, FiDeSR incorporates a latent residual refinement, which corrects prediction errors in the diffusion noise and enhances fine detail recovery. FiDeSR achieves superior real-world SR performance compared to existing diffusion-based methods, producing outputs with both high perceptual quality and faithful content restoration. The source code will be released at: https://github.com/Ar0Kim/FiDeSR.

Latent-space modeling has been the standard for Diffusion Transformers (DiTs). However, it relies on a two-stage pipeline where the pretrained autoencoder introduces lossy reconstruction, leading to error accumulation while hindering joint optimization. To address these issues, we propose PixelDiT, a single-stage, end-to-end model that eliminates the need for the autoencoder and learns the diffusion process directly in the pixel space. PixelDiT adopts a fully transformer-based architecture shaped by a dual-level design: a patch-level DiT that captures global semantics and a pixel-level DiT that refines texture details, enabling efficient training of a pixel-space diffusion model while preserving fine details. PixelDiT achieves 1.61 FID on ImageNet 256 and 1.81 FID on ImageNet 512, surpassing existing pixel generative models by a large margin. We further extend PixelDiT to text-to-image generation and pretrain it at the 1024^ 2 resolution in pixel space. It achieves 0.74 on GenEval and 83.5 on DPG-bench, approaching the best latent diffusion models.

Two-hand reconstruction from monocular images is hampered by complex poses and severe occlusions, which often cause interaction misalignment and two-hand penetration. We address this by decoupling the problem into 2D structural alignment and 3D spatial interaction alignment, each handled by a tailored component. For 2D alignment, we pioneer the attempt to unify heterogeneous structural priors (keypoints, segmentation, and depth) from vision foundation models as complementary structured guidance for two-hand recovery. Instead of extracting priors prediction as explicit inputs, we propose a fusion-alignment encoder that absorbs their structural knowledge implicitly, achieving foundation-level guidance without foundation-level cost. For 3D spatial alignment, we propose a two-hand penetration-free diffusion model that learns a generative mapping from interpenetrated poses to realistic, collision-free configurations. Guided by collision gradients during denoising, the model converges toward the manifold of valid two-hand interactions, preserving geometric and kinematic coherence. This generative formulation approach enables physically credible reconstructions even under occlusion or ambiguous visual input. Extensive experiments on InterHand2.6M and HIC show state-of-the-art or leading performance in interaction alignment and penetration suppression. Project: https://gaogehan.github.io/A2P/

Specular highlights distort appearance, obscure texture, and hinder geometric reasoning in both natural and surgical imagery. We present UnReflectAnything, an RGB-only framework that removes highlights from a single image by predicting a highlight map together with a reflection-free diffuse reconstruction. The model uses a frozen vision transformer encoder to extract multi-scale features, a lightweight head to localize specular regions, and a token-level inpainting module that restores corrupted feature patches before producing the final diffuse image. To overcome the lack of paired supervision, we introduce a Virtual Highlight Synthesis pipeline that renders physically plausible specularities using monocular geometry, Fresnel-aware shading, and randomized lighting which enables training on arbitrary RGB images with correct geometric structure. UnReflectAnything generalizes across natural and surgical domains where non-Lambertian surfaces and non-uniform lighting create severe highlights and it achieves competitive performance with state-of-the-art results on several benchmarks.

Given a collection of multi-view images, we perform consistent multi-view editing with a training-free framework using pre-trained 2D editing models and a generative multi-view model. While 2D editing models can independently edit each image in a set of multi-view images of a 3D scene, they do not maintain consistency across views. Existing approaches typically rely on explicit 3D representations to average out inconsistencies, but they suffer from lengthy optimization, instability under sparse-view settings, and blurry results. We address the problem from a different lens, using the 2D editing model to guide a multi-view generative model during diffusion sampling. This is achieved through our novel coupled diffusion sampling process. We concurrently sample two trajectories from both a multi-view image distribution and a 2D edited image distribution, and connect the samples with a coupling term. Effectively, the two models guide each other during sampling, and the resulting sample from the multi-view model remains consistent while satisfying the desired edit. We validate the effectiveness and generality of this framework on three distinct multi-view image editing tasks, and demonstrate its applicability across various model architectures. We further illustrate the effects of coupling on SoTA image and video generation models, highlighting the potential of our method beyond multi-view editing.

Segment Anything Models (SAMs) are extensively used in computer vision for universal image segmentation, but deploying them on resource-constrained devices is challenging due to their high computational and memory demands. Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) is a widely used technique for model compression and acceleration. However, existing PTQ methods fail to consider the cross-attention architecture in the SAM decoder. This degradation primarily stems from the unique challenges posed by SAMs: (1) Attention dissipation, where the attention information in the decoder, which is crucial for representing segmentation masks, collapses into a diffuse and non-semantic form under low-bit quantization; and (2) Reconstruction oscillation, where bidirectional coupling within the two-way transformer introduces cross-branch error interference and destabilizes convergence. To tackle these issues, we propose CAR-SAM, a unified quantization framework tailored for SAMs. Firstly, to mitigate attention dissipation, we introduce MatMul-Aware Compensation (MAC) mechanism that transfers activation-induced quantization errors from MatMul to preceding linear weights. Secondly, to mitigate oscillation in decoder optimization, we develop a Joint Cross-Attention Reconstruction (JCAR) strategy that jointly reconstructs coupled attention branches, suppressing oscillatory behavior and promoting stable convergence. Extensive experiments show that CAR-SAM robustly quantizes SAM models down to 4-bit precision, surpassing existing methods by 14.6% and 6.6% mAP on SAM-B and SAM-L respectively.

Physically-based rendering (PBR) materials are fundamental to photorealistic graphics, yet their creation remains labor-intensive and requires specialized expertise. While generative models have advanced material synthesis, existing methods lack a unified representation bridging natural image appearance and PBR properties, leading to fragmented task-specific pipelines and inability to leverage large-scale RGB image data. We present MatPedia, a foundation model built upon a novel joint RGB-PBR representation that compactly encodes materials into two interdependent latents: one for RGB appearance and one for the four PBR maps encoding complementary physical properties. By formulating them as a 5-channel sequence and employing video diffusion architectures, MatPedia naturally captures their correlations while transferring visual priors from RGB generation models. This joint representation enables a unified framework handling multiple material tasks--text-to-material generation, image-to-material generation, and intrinsic decomposition--within a single architecture. Trained on MatHybrid-410K, a mixed corpus combining PBR datasets with large-scale RGB images, MatPedia achieves native 1024x1024 synthesis that substantially surpasses existing approaches in both quality and diversity.

Face swapping aims to seamlessly transfer a source facial identity onto a target while preserving target attributes such as pose and expression. Diffusion models, known for their superior generative capabilities, have recently shown promise in advancing face-swapping quality. This paper addresses two key challenges in diffusion-based face swapping: the prioritized preservation of identity over target attributes and the inherent conflict between identity and attribute conditioning. To tackle these issues, we introduce an identity-constrained attribute-tuning framework for face swapping that first ensures identity preservation and then fine-tunes for attribute alignment, achieved through a decoupled condition injection. We further enhance fidelity by incorporating identity and adversarial losses in a post-training refinement stage. Our proposed identity-constrained diffusion-based face-swapping model outperforms existing methods in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations, demonstrating superior identity similarity and attribute consistency, achieving a new state-of-the-art performance in high-fidelity face swapping.

Aligning text-to-video diffusion models with human preferences is crucial for generating high-quality videos. Existing Direct Preference Otimization (DPO) methods rely on multi-sample ranking and task-specific critic models, which is inefficient and often yields ambiguous global supervision. To address these limitations, we propose LocalDPO, a novel post-training framework that constructs localized preference pairs from real videos and optimizes alignment at the spatio-temporal region level. We design an automated pipeline to efficiently collect preference pair data that generates preference pairs with a single inference per prompt, eliminating the need for external critic models or manual annotation. Specifically, we treat high-quality real videos as positive samples and generate corresponding negatives by locally corrupting them with random spatio-temporal masks and inpainting only the masked regions using the frozen base model. During training, we introduce a region-aware DPO loss that restricts preference learning to corrupted areas for rapid convergence. Experiments on Wan2.1 and CogVideoX demonstrate that LocalDPO consistently improves video fidelity, temporal coherence and human preference scores over other post-training approaches, establishing a more efficient and fine-grained paradigm for video generator alignment.

Voxel-wise dose prediction is a critical yet challenging task in radiotherapy (RT) planning, as bespoke models trained from scratch often struggle to generalize across institutions, scanners, and planning protocols. Meanwhile, large generative backbones pretrained on billion-scale visual data have learned strong geometric and structural priors that may transfer beyond their source domain. We propose DiffKT3D, an Any2Any 3D diffusion framework that transfers prior knowledge from pretrained video diffusion models to clinically meaningful dose prediction. To support flexible conditioning over heterogeneous clinical inputs, including CT, target and organ masks, body mask, and beam descriptors, we introduce a modality- and role-aware Any2Any formulation that avoids cross-attention while retaining a unified conditioning interface. We further apply reinforcement-learning (RL) post-training with a clinically informed Scorecard reward to align generations with institutional treatment preferences. On the GDP--HMM challenge, DiffKT3D reduces voxel-wise MAE from 2.07 to 1.93 relative to the top challenge solution, while also improving image quality and clinical preference alignment. These results show that pretrained diffusion priors, combined with flexible multimodal conditioning and scorecard-aligned post-training, provide an effective approach to RT dose prediction.

Digital images are often degraded by soft effects such as lens flare, haze, shadows, and reflections, which reduce aesthetics even though the underlying pixels remain partially visible. The prevailing works address these degradations in isolation, developing highly specialized, specialist models that lack scalability and fail to exploit the shared underlying essences of these restoration problems. While specialist models are limited, recent large-scale pretrained generalist models offer powerful, text-driven image editing capabilities. while recent general-purpose systems (e.g., GPT-4o, Flux Kontext, Nano Banana) require detailed prompts and often fail to achieve robust removal on these fine-grained tasks or preserve identity of the scene. Leveraging the common essence of soft effects, i.e., semi-transparent occlusions, we introduce a foundational versatile model UniSER, capable of addressing diverse degradations caused by soft effects within a single framework. Our methodology centers on curating a massive 3.8M-pair dataset to ensure robustness and generalization, which includes novel, physically-plausible data to fill critical gaps in public benchmarks, and a tailored training pipeline that fine-tunes a Diffusion Transformer to learn robust restoration priors from this diverse data, integrating fine-grained mask and strength controls. This synergistic approach allows UniSER to significantly outperform both specialist and generalist models, achieving robust, high-fidelity restoration in the wild.

Diffusion-based video motion customization facilitates the acquisition of human motion representations from a few video samples, while achieving arbitrary subjects transfer through precise textual conditioning. Existing approaches often rely on semantic-level alignment, expecting the model to learn new motion concepts and combine them with other entities (e.g., cats or dogs) to produce visually appealing results. However, video data involve complex spatio-temporal patterns, and focusing solely on semantics cause the model to overlook the visual complexity of motion. Conversely, tuning only the visual representation leads to semantic confusion in representing the intended action. To address these limitations, we propose SynMotion, a new motion-customized video generation model that jointly leverages semantic guidance and visual adaptation. At the semantic level, we introduce the dual-embedding semantic comprehension mechanism which disentangles subject and motion representations, allowing the model to learn customized motion features while preserving its generative capabilities for diverse subjects. At the visual level, we integrate parameter-efficient motion adapters into a pre-trained video generation model to enhance motion fidelity and temporal coherence. Furthermore, we introduce a new embedding-specific training strategy which alternately optimizes subject and motion embeddings, supported by the manually constructed Subject Prior Video (SPV) training dataset. This strategy promotes motion specificity while preserving generalization across diverse subjects. Lastly, we introduce MotionBench, a newly curated benchmark with diverse motion patterns. Experimental results across both T2V and I2V settings demonstrate that SynMotion outperforms existing baselines.

Registration of multiview point clouds typically depends on extensive pairwise matching to build a pose graph for global synchronization, which is computationally expensive and ill-posed without holistic geometric constraints. In this paper, we propose FUSER, the first feed-forward multi-view registration transformer that processes all scans jointly in a unified, compact latent space to directly predict global poses without any pairwise estimation. To maintain tractability, FUSER employs a sparse 3D CNN to encode each scan into low-resolution superpoint features preserving absolute translation cues, followed by a Geometric Alternating Attention module for efficient intra- and inter-scan reasoning. Particularly, we transfer 2D attention priors from off-the-shelf foundation models (i.e., \pi^3) to enhance 3D feature attention. Building upon FUSER and its estimates, we further introduce FUSER-DF, an SE(3) diffusion refinement framework to correct FUSER's estimates through a denoising process over the joint SE(3)^N space. Here, FUSER serves as a surrogate multiview register to model the denoiser, and a prior-conditioned SE(3)^N variational lower bound is derived for denoising supervision. Extensive experiments on 3DMatch and ScanNet confirm the superior registration accuracy and efficiency of our method.

We introduce StableMaterials, a novel approach for generating photorealistic physically-based rendering (PBR) materials that integrate semi-supervised learning with Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs). Our method employs adversarial training to distill knowledge from existing large-scale image generation models, minimizing the reliance on annotated data and enhancing the diversity in generation. This distillation approach aligns the distribution of the generated materials with that of image textures from an SDXL model, enabling the generation of novel materials that are not present in the initial training dataset. Furthermore, we employ a diffusion-based refiner model to improve the visual quality of the samples and achieve high-resolution generation. Finally, we distill a latent consistency model for fast generation in just four steps and propose a new tileability technique that removes visual artifacts typically associated with fewer diffusion steps. We detail the architecture and training process of StableMaterials, the integration of semi-supervised training within existing LDM frameworks. Comparative evaluations with state-of-the-art methods show the effectiveness of StableMaterials, highlighting its potential applications in computer graphics and beyond. StableMaterials is publicly available at https://gvecchio.com/stablematerials.

Reconstructing the three-dimensional distribution of dark matter from weak-lensing observations is a central but highly ill-posed inverse problem in cosmology. Unlike standard 3D reconstruction with multiple viewpoints, we observe the universe from a single line of sight, through noisy shape distortions of galaxies with uncertain distances, so meaningful recovery of the 3D matter field requires strong prior assumptions. Existing methods either produce point estimates with handcrafted priors or use neural ensembles for approximate Bayesian uncertainty, and struggle to capture the non-Gaussian, filamentary structure of the cosmic web. With the advent of new high-resolution cosmological simulations, we now have an alternative source of prior knowledge that captures the nonlinear statistics of structure formation with far greater fidelity than analytic prescriptions. We leverage these simulations to build a new dataset \texttt Conicus3D , which enables us to learn a data-driven diffusion-model prior capturing the full 3D distribution of dark matter structure across cosmic time. Building on recent plug-and-play approaches, we modify a diffusion-based posterior sampling scheme to the 3D weak-lensing setting, combining the learned prior with a differentiable physical forward model. On realistic simulations targeting a modern weak lensing survey, our approach yields substantially improved 2D and 3D reconstruction accuracy over baseline methods. Moreover, it produces posterior samples whose statistics closely track the underlying simulations, while remaining robust to moderate shifts in cosmology.

In-generation watermarking for latent diffusion models has recently shown high robustness in marking generated images for easier detection and attribution. However, its application to autoregressive (AR) image models is underexplored. Autoregressive models generate images by autoregressively predicting a sequence of visual tokens that are then decoded into pixels using a VQ-VAE decoder. Inspired by KGW watermarking for large language models, we examine token-level watermarking schemes that bias the next-token prediction based on prior tokens. We find that a direct transfer of these schemes works in principle, but the detectability of the watermarks decreases considerably under common image perturbations. As a remedy, we propose a watermarking approach based on visual token clustering, which assigns similar tokens to the same set (red or green). We investigate token clustering in a training-free setting, as well as in combination with a more accurate fine-tuned token or cluster predictor. Overall, our experiments show that cluster-based watermarks greatly improve robustness against perturbations and regeneration attacks while preserving image quality, outperforming a set of baselines and concurrent works. Moreover, our methods offer fast verification runtime, comparable to lightweight post-hoc watermarking techniques.
