Text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models have made significant strides in generating high-quality images. However, progressively manipulating certain attributes of generated images to meet the desired user expectations remains challenging, particularly for content with rich details, such as human faces. Some studies have attempted to address this by training slider modules. However, they follow a One-for-One manner, where an independent slider is trained for each attribute, requiring additional training whenever a new attribute is introduced. This not only results in parameter redundancy accumulated by sliders but also restricts the flexibility of practical applications and the scalability of attribute manipulation. To address this issue, we introduce the All-in-One Slider, a lightweight module that decomposes the text embedding space into sparse, semantically meaningful attribute directions. Once trained, it functions as a general-purpose slider, enabling interpretable and fine-grained continuous control over various attributes. Moreover, by recombining the learned directions, the All-in-One Slider supports zero-shot manipulation of unseen attributes (e.g., races and celebrities) and the composition of multiple attributes. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method enables accurate and scalable attribute manipulation, achieving notable improvements compared to previous methods. Furthermore, our method can be extended to integrate with the inversion framework to perform attribute manipulation on real images, broadening its applicability to various real-world scenarios. The code and trained model will be released.

We present GNVC-VD, the first DiT-based generative neural video compression framework built upon an advancedvideo generation foundation model, where spatio-temporal latent compression and sequence-level generative refinement are unified within a single codec. Existing perceptual codecs primarily rely on pre-trained image generative priors to restorehigh-frequency details, but their frame-wise nature lacks temporal modeling and inevitably leads to perceptual flickering. To address this, GNVC-VD introduces a unified flow-matching latent refinement module that leverages a video diffusion transformer to jointly enhance intra- and inter-frame latents through sequence-level denoising, ensuring consistent spatio-temporal details. Instead of denoising from pure Gaussian noise as in video generation, GNVC-VD initializes refinement from decoded spatio-temporal latents and learns a correction term that adapts the diffusion prior to compression-induced degradation. A conditioning adaptor further injects compression-aware cues into intermediate DiT layers, enabling effective artifact removal while maintaining temporal coherenceunder extreme bitrate constraints. Extensive experiments show that GNVC-VD surpasses both traditional and learned codecs in perceptual quality and significantly reduces the flickering artifacts that persist in prior generative approaches, even below 0.01 bpp, highlighting the promise of integrating video-native generative priors into neural codecs for next-generation perceptual video compression.
Applying diffusion models to physically-based material estimation and generation has recently gained prominence. In this paper, we propose MatMart, a novel material reconstruction framework for 3D objects, offering the following advantages. First, MatMart adopts a two-stage reconstruction, starting with accurate material prediction from inputs and followed by prior-guided material generation for unobserved views, yielding high-fidelity results. Second, by utilizing progressive inference alongside the proposed view-material cross-attention (VMCA), MatMart enables reconstruction from an arbitrary number of input images, demonstrating strong scalability and flexibility. Finally, MatMart achieves both material prediction and generation capabilities through end-to-end optimization of a single diffusion model, without relying on additional pre-trained models, thereby exhibiting enhanced stability across various types of objects. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MatMart achieves superior performance in material reconstruction compared to existing methods.
OrthoFuse: Training-free Riemannian Fusion of Orthogonal Style-Concept Adapters for Diffusion Models
PDF ↗In a rapidly growing field of model training there is a constant practical interest in parameter-efficient fine-tuning and various techniques that use a small amount of training data to adapt the model to a narrow task. However, there is an open question: how to combine several adapters tuned for different tasks into one which is able to yield adequate results on both tasks? Specifically, merging subject and style adapters for generative models remains unresolved. In this paper we seek to show that in the case of orthogonal fine-tuning (OFT), we can use structured orthogonal parametrization and its geometric properties to get the formulas for training-free adapter merging. In particular, we derive the structure of the manifold formed by the recently proposed Group-and-Shuffle (GS) orthogonal matrices, and obtain efficient formulas for the geodesics approximation between two points. Additionally, we propose a spectra restoration transform that restores spectral properties of the merged adapter for higher-quality fusion. We conduct experiments in subject-driven generation tasks showing that our technique to merge two GS orthogonal matrices is capable to unite concept and style features of different adapters. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first training-free method for merging multiplicative orthogonal adapters. Code is available via the link: https://github.com/ControlGenAI/OrthoFuse.
World models have become crucial for autonomous driving, as they learn how scenarios evolve over time to address the long-tail challenges of the real world. However, current approaches relegate world models to limited roles: they operate within ostensibly unified architectures that still keep world prediction and motion planning as decoupled processes. To bridge this gap, we propose DriveLaW, a novel paradigm that unifies video generation and motion planning. By directly injecting the latent representation from its video generator into the planner, DriveLaW ensures inherent consistency between high-fidelity future generation and reliable trajectory planning. Specifically, DriveLaW consists of two core components: DriveLaW-Video, our powerful world model that generates high-fidelity forecasting with expressive latent representations, and DriveLaW-Act, a diffusion planner that generates consistent and reliable trajectories from the latent of DriveLaW-Video, with both components optimized by a three-stage progressive training strategy. New state-of-the-art results across both tasks demonstrate the power of our unified paradigm. DriveLaW not only significantly advances video prediction, surpassing the previous best-performing work by 33.3% in FID and 1.8% in FVD, but also sets a new record on the NAVSIM planning benchmark.
Large-scale pre-trained text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models, such as Stable Diffusion, can be finetuned for image super-resolution (SR) with highly realistic details. While impressive, pre-training such multi-modal models demands billions of high-quality text-image pairs and substantial computational resources, despite that SR is fundamentally an image-to-image (I2I) task. This raises a critical question: do we truly need multi-modal priors and billion-scale text-image data to solve a purely vision task? In this paper, we propose **VOSR**, a **V**ision-**O**nly **S**uper-**R**esolution framework that eliminates the need for textual priors and multi-modal pretraining. We identify two key limitations in previous image-based, uni-modal diffusion models: limited visual semantic guidance and unstable unconditional training. To this end, we leverage a pretrained vision encoder to inject semantic cues, and introduce a relaxed unconditional objective that partially uses the low-quality condition to stabilize training. To accelerate inference, we adopt a modified shortcut model for one-step SR with minimal quality degradation. VOSR is trained from scratch with significantly less data and a lower computational cost compared to T2I-based diffusion models. However, VOSR achieves comparable or even better performance than state-of-the-art T2I-tuned SR methods on both synthetic and real-world benchmarks, demonstrating its potential as a scalable and competitive alternative for generative SR. Codes and models will be made publicly available.
Video inverse problems such as inpainting, deblurring and super-resolution are fundamental to streaming, telepresence, and AR/VR, where high perceptual quality must coexist with tight latency constraints. Diffusion-based priors currently deliver state-of-the-art reconstructions, but existing approaches either adapt image diffusion models with ad hoc temporal regularizers--leading to temporal artifacts--or rely on native video diffusion models whose iterative posterior sampling is far too slow for real-time use. We introduce InstantViR, an amortized inference framework for ultra-fast video reconstruction powered by a pre-trained video diffusion prior. We distill a powerful bidirectional video diffusion model (teacher) into a causal autoregressive student that maps a degraded video directly to its restored version in a single forward pass, inheriting the teacher's strong temporal modeling while completely removing iterative test-time optimization. The distillation is prior-driven: it only requires the teacher diffusion model and known degradation operators, and does not rely on externally paired clean/noisy video data. To further boost throughput, we replace the standard VAE in video diffusion backbone with a highly efficient LeanVAE, enabling low-latency latent-space processing. Across streaming random inpainting, Gaussian deblurring and super-resolution, InstantViR matches or surpasses the reconstruction quality of diffusion-based baselines while running at over 35 FPS on NVIDIA A100 GPUs, achieving up to 100x speedups over iterative video diffusion priors. These results show that diffusion-based video reconstruction is compatible with real-time, interactive, editable, streaming scenarios, turning high-quality video restoration into a practical component of modern vision systems.
Video diffusion transformers (DiTs) suffer from prohibitive inference latency due to quadratic attention complexity. Existing sparse attention methods either overlook semantic similarity, or fail to adapt to heterogeneous token distributions across layers, leading to model performance degradation. We propose AdaCluster, a training-free adaptive clustering framework that accelerates the generation of DiTs while preserving accuracy. AdaCluster applies an angle-similarity preserving clustering method to query vectors for higher compression, and designs a euclidean-similarity preserving clustering method for keys, covering cluster number assignment, threshold-wise adaptive clustering, and efficient critical cluster selection. Experiments on CogVideoX-2B, HunyuanVideo, and Wan-2.1 via one A40 GPU demonstrate up to 1.67x-4.31x speedup with negligible quality degradation.
Industrial anomaly detection (AD) is characterized by an abundance of normal images but a scarcity of anomalous ones. Although numerous few-shot anomaly synthesis methods have been proposed to augment anomalous data for downstream AD tasks, most existing approaches require time-consuming training and struggle to learn distributions that are faithful to real anomalies, thereby restricting the efficacy of AD models trained on such data. To address these limitations, we propose a training-free few-shot anomaly generation method, namely O2MAG, which leverages the self-attention in One reference anomalous image to synthesize More realistic anomalies, supporting effective downstream anomaly detection. Specifically, O2MAG manipulates three parallel diffusion processes via self-attention grafting and incorporates the anomaly mask to mitigate foreground-background query confusion, synthesizing text-guided anomalies that closely adhere to real anomalous distributions. To bridge the semantic gap between the encoded anomaly text prompts and the true anomaly semantics, Anomaly-Guided Optimization is further introduced to align the synthesis process with the target anomalous distribution, steering the generation toward realistic and text-consistent anomalies. Moreover, to mitigate faint anomaly synthesis inside anomaly masks, Dual-Attention Enhancement is adopted during generation to reinforce both self- and cross-attention on masked regions. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of \method, demonstrating its superior performance over prior state-of-the-art methods on downstream AD tasks.
Towards Stealthy and Effective Backdoor Attacks on Lane Detection: A Naturalistic Data Poisoning Approach
PDF ↗Deep learning-based lane detection (LD) plays a critical role in autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems. However, its vulnerability to backdoor attacks presents a significant security concern. Existing backdoor attack methods on LD often exhibit limited practical utility due to the artificial and conspicuous nature of their triggers. To address this limitation and investigate the impact of more ecologically valid backdoor attacks on lane detection models, we examine the common data poisoning attack and introduce DBALD, a novel diffusion-based data poisoning framework for generating naturalistic backdoor triggers. DBALD comprises two key components: optimal trigger position finding and stealthy trigger generation. Given the insight that attack performance varies depending on the trigger position, we propose a heatmap-based method to identify the optimal trigger location, with gradient analysis to generate attack-specific heatmaps. A region-based editing diffusion process is then applied to synthesize visually plausible triggers within the most susceptible regions identified previously. Furthermore, to ensure scene integrity and a stealthy attack, we introduce two loss strategies: one for preserving lane structure and another for maintaining the consistency of the driving scene. Consequently, compared to existing attack methods, DBALD achieves both a high attack success rate and superior stealthiness. Extensive experiments on 4 mainstream lane detection models show that DBALD exceeds state-of-the-art methods, with an average success rate improvement of +10.87% and significantly enhanced stealthiness. The experimental results highlight significant practical challenges in ensuring model robustness against real-world backdoor threats in lane detection. Our data and demos are available at https://sites.google.com/view/dbald.
All-in-one image restoration (AiOIR) methods have made remarkable progress in handling diverse degradations. However, their performance often deteriorates when the test distribution deviates from the training distribution. Exploring test-time adaptation for AiOIR is therefore crucial. To adapt a pre-trained AiOIR model to unseen degradation distributions without access to source data or retraining, two key challenges must be addressed: designing reliable pseudo-supervision and stabilizing adaptation. Observing that multiple degraded versions of the same scene should map to a consistent clean image, we propose Degradation-Consistent Test-Time Adaptation (DCTTA). DCTTA comprises three core components: (1) test-time redegradation generation, which leverages a diffusion-based generator to construct pseudo degraded-clean pairs for distribution alignment; (2) degradation-guided image restoration, which enforces domain adaptation via self-supervised consistency loss; and (3) test-time important parameter selection, which selectively updates degradation-sensitive parameters to ensure stable adaptation while preserving pre-trained knowledge. Extensive experiments across multiple tasks and challenging domain shifts demonstrate that DCTTA consistently outperforms state-of-the-art AiOIR baselines, achieving up to +4.57 dB PSNR improvement on the Rain100H dataset.
Diffusion priors have recently demonstrated strong capability in enhancing the quality of sparse-view 3D reconstruction by augmenting training views at novel viewpoints, but they inevitably introduce hallucinated content-- artifacts inconsistent with the input views -- into the final 3D model. To address this challenge, we propose Hallucination-Aware Diffusion prior (HAD), which estimates pixel-wise hallucination score maps for augmented images by leveraging multi-view reasoning capabilities from a feedforward novel view synthesis (NVS) network pre-trained on large-scale 3D data. These hallucination scores enable selective masking of unreliable pixels during the progressive 3D reconstruction procedure, preventing the introduction of non-existent artifacts into the 3D model. To further enhance performance, we create multiple versions of augmented images at each novel view by conditioning the diffusion prior on different input views, which are then fused into a final image that leverages the broader context across all input views. We show that our method substantially reduces hallucination artifacts in diffusion-assisted 3D reconstruction, thereby achieving state-of-the-art performance across multiple benchmarks on novel view synthesis.
The life of a photo begins with photons striking the sensor, whose signals are passed through a sophisticated image signal processing (ISP) pipeline to produce a display-referred image. However, such images are no longer faithful to the incident light, being compressed in dynamic range and stylized by subjective preferences. In contrast, RAW images record direct sensor signals before non-linear tone mapping. After camera response curve correction and demosaicing, they can be converted into linear images, which are scene-referred representations that directly reflect true irradiance and are invariant to sensor-specific factors. Since image sensors have better dynamic range and bit depth, linear images contain richer information than display-referred ones, leaving users more room for editing during post-processing. Despite this advantage, current generative models mainly synthesize display-referred images, which inherently limits downstream editing. In this paper, we address the task of text-to-linear-image generation: synthesizing a high-quality, scene-referred linear image that preserves full dynamic range, conditioned on a text prompt, for professional post-processing. Generating linear images is challenging, as pre-trained VAEs in latent diffusion models struggle to simultaneously preserve extreme highlights and shadows due to the higher dynamic range and bit depth. To this end, we represent a linear image as a sequence of exposure brackets, each capturing a specific portion of the dynamic range, and propose a DiT-based flow-matching architecture for text-conditioned exposure bracket generation. We further demonstrate downstream applications including text-guided linear image editing and structure-conditioned generation via ControlNet.
Recent work has shown that neural networks can perform 3D tasks such as Novel View Synthesis (NVS) without explicit 3D reconstruction. Even so, we argue that strong 3D inductive biases are still helpful in the design of such networks. We show this point by introducing LagerNVS, an encoder-decoder neural network for NVS that builds on `3D-aware' latent features. The encoder is initialized from a 3D reconstruction network pre-trained using explicit 3D supervision. This is paired with a lightweight decoder, and trained end-to-end with photometric losses. LagerNVS achieves state-of-the-art deterministic feed-forward Novel View Synthesis (including 31.4 PSNR on Re10k), with and without known cameras, renders in real time, generalizes to in-the-wild data, and can be paired with a diffusion decoder for generative extrapolation. See szymanowiczs.github.io/lagernvs for code, models, and examples.
We propose OMGTex, an end-to-end diffusion-based framework for reconstructing high-quality and editable facial UV textures from multi-style facial images. Existing texture reconstruction methods face two major limitations: (1) Fragility due to reliance on 3D geometry priors, which are difficult to estimate accurately, especially under facial occlusions or in stylized domains; and (2) A lack of semantic disentanglement, inhibiting region-specific texture editing and style transfer. Our work addresses both challenges simultaneously.Our core innovation is a geometry-free pipeline that directly maps a 2D face image to its corresponding editable UV texture. We introduce two key techniques: First, to address the challenge of UV misalignment common in diffusion generation, we introduce a gradient-guided refinement strategy at inference time, which explicitly corrects structural consistency. Second, we leverage the inherent semantic distribution capability of diffusion models and design a novel training paradigm to enhance this tendency, enabling semantic-aware editing of facial texture. Furthermore, to address the data scarcity in multi-style texture reconstruction, we construct CANVAS, the first comprehensive paired texture reconstruction dataset covering realistic and diverse stylized domains.To the best of our knowledge, OMGTex is the first geometry-free inference framework that achieves robust, style-consistent, and editable facial texture reconstruction across diverse domains. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on facial texture benchmarks. Codes and the pretrained model weights will be publicly released.
Vector images have attracted increasing attention in the field of information hiding in recent years due to their scalability and structural properties. However, existing steganographic methods for vector images often introduce noticeable modifications to the files themselves, resulting in potential security risks and limited embedding capacity. Motivated by recent advances in diffusion models and image generative steganography, we propose GVIS, a novel Generative Vector Image Steganography framework. GVIS deterministically generates raster images using diffusion models, which are subsequently vectorized into vector images. On the sender side, we design a lightweight overlap detection algorithm to identify cubic Bezier curve control points suitable for data embedding, which enables the secret information to be encoded into the coordinate parameters of these control points. Then, the receiver can use the pre-shared settings to reconstruct the generation process and accurate message extraction by difference. Extensive theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate that GVIS achieves high-capacity, high-accuracy, secure, and training-free steganography. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to apply generative models to vector image steganography.
Advances in diffusion-based video generation models, while significantly improving human animation, poses threats of misuse through the creation of fake videos from a specific person's photo and text prompts. Recent efforts have focused on adversarial attacks that introduce crafted perturbations to protect images from diffusion-based models. However, most existing approaches target image generation, while relatively few explicitly address image-to-video diffusion models (VDMs), and most primarily focus on UNet-based architectures. Hence, their effectiveness against Diffusion Transformer (DiT) models remains largely under-explored, as these models demonstrate improved feature retention, and stronger temporal consistency due to larger capacity and advanced attention mechanisms. In this work, we introduce Anti-I2V, a novel defense against malicious human image-to-video generation, applicable across diverse diffusion backbones. Instead of restricting noise updates to the RGB space, Anti-I2V operates in both the L*a*b* and frequency domains, improving robustness and concentrating on salient pixels. We then identify the network layers that capture the most distinct semantic features during the denoising process to design appropriate training objectives that maximize degradation of temporal coherence and generation fidelity. Through extensive validation, Anti-I2V demonstrates state-of-the-art defense performance against diverse video diffusion models, offering an effective solution to the problem.
While modern generative models such as diffusion-based architectures have enabled impressive creative capabilities, they also raise important safety and ethical risks. These concerns have led to growing interest in concept erasure, the process of removing unwanted concepts from model representations. Existing approaches often achieve strong erasure performance but rely on iterative optimization and may inadvertently distort unrelated concepts. In this work, we present a simple yet principled alternative: a linear transformation framework that achieves concept erasure analytically, without any training. Our method adapts a pretrained model through two sequential, closed-form steps: first, computing a proxy projection of the target concept, and second, applying a constrained transformation within the left null space of known concept directions. This design yields a deterministic and geometrically interpretable procedure for safe, efficient, and theory-grounded concept removal. Across a wide range of experiments, including object and style erasure on multiple Stable Diffusion variants and the flow-matching model (FLUX), our approach matches or surpasses the performance of state-of-the-art methods while preserving non-target concepts more faithfully. Requiring only a few seconds to apply, it offers a lightweight and drop-in tool for controlled model editing, advancing the goal of safer and more responsible generative models.
HSI-GPT2: A Dual-Granularity Large Motion Reasoning Model with Diffusion Refinement for Human-Scene Interaction
PDF ↗Unified interpreting and synthesizing human behaviors within 3D environments is vital for advancing spatial intelligence and humanoid robotics. Despite recent advancements (e.g., HSI-GPT), two fundamental capabilities expected of a unified model--understanding and generation--still lag behind specialist models. This is primarily due to 1) single-granularity codebook overemphasizes low-frequency motion details while neglecting motion semantics, 2) limited decoding capacity of the motion detokenizer which restricts the fidelity of human-scene interactions, 3) only relying on supervised fine-tuning (SFT) failing to capture high-level motion semantics and logical reasoning with an end-to-end mapping. To this issue, we develop HSI-GPT2--a reasoning-enhanced, dual-granularity motion-representational large Scene-Motion-Language model, powered by reinforcement learning (RL) with Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning. First, HSI-GPT2 introduces a Dual-granularity Motion Tokenizer, DMoTok, which jointly preserves both fine-grained motion details and text-aligned motion semantics for various HSI-related tasks. Further, a motion diffusion decoder functions as a motion detokenizer, translating deep semantics and detailed features of LLMs into physically grounded human motions. Finally, we curate a Motion Chain-of-Thought (MoCoT) data engine and extend a Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) paradigm to execute long-horizon and compositionallyrich commands. Results on standard HSI benchmarks confirm the clear superiority of HSI-GPT2 in enhancing interaction quality, semantic alignment, behavioral diversity, and generalization to unseen 3D scenes.
FoleyDesigner: Immersive Stereo Foley Generation with Precise Spatio-Temporal Alignment for Film Clips
PDF ↗Foley art plays a pivotal role in enhancing immersive auditory experiences in film, yet manual creation of spatio-temporal aligned audio remains labor-intensive. We propose FoleyDesigner, a novel framework inspired by professional Foley workflows, integrating film clip analysis, spatio-temporal controllable Foley generation, and professional mixing capabilities. Technically, FoleyDesigner employs a multi-agent architecture for precise spatio-temporal analysis. It achieves spatio-temporal alignment through latent diffusion models trained on spatiotemporal cues extracted from video frames, combined with large language model (LLM)-driven hybrid mechanisms that emulate film industry-grade post-production practices. To address the lack of high-quality stere Foley datasets in film, we introduce FilmStereo, the first professional stereo Foley dataset containing spatial metadata, precise timestamps, and semantic annotations for eight common Foley categories. For application, the framework supports interactive user control while maintaining seamless integration with professional pipelines, including 5.1-channel Dolby Atmos systems compliant with ITU-R BS.775 standards, thereby offering extensive creative flexibility. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves superior spatio-temporal alignment compared to existing baselines, with integration validated in film industrial-grade workflows.
