SiameseNorm: Breaking the Barrier to Reconciling Pre/Post-Norm

ICML 2026poster

Modern Transformers predominantly adopt the Pre-Norm paradigm for its optimization stability, foregoing the superior potential of the unstable Post-Norm architecture. Prior attempts to combine their strengths typically lead to a stability-performance trade-off. We attribute this phenomenon to a stru…

Towards Generalized Representations for Low-Light Understanding: When Signal Constancy Meets Semantic Enrichment

CVPR 2026

Low-light degradation hampers machine understanding at night. Existing methods either overfit labeled data (paired supervision) or specific distributions (unpaired supervision), resulting in poor generalization under unseen degradations. In this paper, we propose UniPrior, a unified prior-based low-

Faster Video Diffusion with Trainable Sparse Attention

NeurIPS 2025poster

Scaling video diffusion transformers (DiTs) is limited by their quadratic 3D attention, even though most of the attention mass concentrates on a small subset of positions. We turn this observation into VSA, a trainable, hardware-efficient sparse attention that replaces full attention at both traini…

SageAttention2: Efficient Attention with Thorough Outlier Smoothing and Per-thread INT4 Quantization

ICML 2025poster

Although quantization for linear layers has been widely used, its application to accelerate the attention process remains limited. To further enhance the efficiency of attention computation compared to SageAttention while maintaining precision, we propose SageAttention2, which utilizes significantly…

SageAttention3: Microscaling FP4 Attention for Inference and An Exploration of 8-Bit Training

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

The efficiency of attention is important due to its quadratic time complexity. We enhance the efficiency of attention through two key contributions: First, we leverage the new $\texttt{FP4}$ Tensor Cores in Blackwell GPUs to accelerate attention computation. Our implementation achieves $\textbf{1038…

SpargeAttention: Accurate and Training-free Sparse Attention Accelerating Any Model Inference

ICML 2025poster

An efficient attention implementation is essential for large models due to its quadratic time complexity. Fortunately, attention commonly exhibits sparsity, i.e., many values in the attention map are near zero, allowing for the omission of corresponding computations. Many studies have utilized the s…

ViDiT-Q: Efficient and Accurate Quantization of Diffusion Transformers for Image and Video Generation

ICLR 2025poster

Diffusion transformers have demonstrated remarkable performance in visual generation tasks, such as generating realistic images or videos based on textual instructions. However, larger model sizes and multi-frame processing for video generation lead to increased computational and memory costs, posin…

XAttention: Block Sparse Attention with Antidiagonal Scoring

ICML 2025poster

Long-Context Transformer Models (LCTMs) are vital for real-world applications but suffer high computational costs due to attention's quadratic complexity. Block-sparse attention mitigates this by focusing computation on critical regions, yet existing methods struggle with balancing accuracy and effi…

FreeMotion: MoCap-Free Human Motion Synthesis with Multimodal Large Language Models

ECCV 2024poster

"Human motion synthesis is a fundamental task in computer animation. Despite recent progress in this field utilizing deep learning and motion capture data, existing methods are always limited to specific motion categories, environments, and styles. This poor generalizability can be partially attribu…
