Current mainstream methods of aligning diffusion models with human preferences typically employ VLM-based reward models.However, these reward models, pre-trained for semantic alignment, struggle to capture the essential perceptual qualities--such as aesthetics, composition, and visual harmony.In thi
With the success of flow matching in visual generation, sampling efficiency remains a critical bottleneck for its practical application. Among flow models' accelerating methods, ReFlow has been somehow overlooked although it has theoretical consistency with flow matching. This is primarily due to it
Recent video editing models have achieved impressive results, but most still require large-scale paired datasets. Collecting such naturally aligned pairs at scale remains highly challenging and constitutes a critical bottleneck, especially for local video editing data. Existing workarounds transfer
Recent Diffusion models (DMs) advancements have explored incorporating the second-order diffusion Fisher information (DF), defined as the negative Hessian of log density, into various downstream tasks and theoretical analysis. However, current practices typically approximate the diffusion Fisher by…
The emerging diffusion models (DMs) have demonstrated the remarkable capability of generating images via learning the noised score function of the data distribution. Current DM sampling techniques typically rely on first-order Langevin dynamics at each noise level, with efforts concentrated on refin…
The inversion of diffusion model sampling, which aims to find the corresponding initial noise of a sample, plays a critical role in various tasks. Recently, several heuristic exact inversion samplers have been proposed to address the inexact inversion issue in a training-free manner. However, the t…
Most diffusion models assume that the reverse process adheres to a Gaussian distribution. However this approximation has not been rigorously validated especially at singularities where t=0 and t=1. Improperly dealing with such singularities leads to an average brightness issue in applications and li…
Continuous diffusion models are commonly acknowledged to display a deterministic probability flow, whereas discrete diffusion models do not. In this paper, we aim to establish the fundamental theory for the probability flow of discrete diffusion models. Specifically, we first prove that the continuo…
