DenseGRPO: From Sparse to Dense Reward for Flow Matching Model Alignment

ICLR 2026poster

Recent GRPO-based approaches built on flow matching models have shown remarkable improvements in human preference alignment for text-to-image generation. Nevertheless, they still suffer from the sparse reward problem: the terminal reward of the entire denoising trajectory is applied to all intermedi…

Wan-Weaver: Interleaved Multi-modal Generation via Decoupled Training

CVPR 2026

Recent unified models have made unprecedented progress in both understanding and generation. However, while most of them accept multi-modal inputs, they typically produce only single-modality outputs. This challenge of producing interleaved content is mainly due to training data scarcity and the dif
