Diffusion Transformers have achieved state-of-the-art performance in class-conditional and multimodal generation, yet the structure of their learned conditional embeddings remains poorly understood. In this work, we present the first systematic study of these embeddings and uncover a notable redunda…
While on-policy distillation offers dense supervision for training small reasoning models, its optimization dynamics in the multimodal domain remain under-explored. In this work, we challenge the standard monolithic view of Vision-Language Model (VLM) distillation by mathematically decomposing the l…
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) traditionally relies on a sparse, outcome-based signal. Recent work shows that providing a fine-grained, model-intrinsic signal--rewarding the confidence growth in the ground-truth answer--effectively improves language reasoning training by provi
Drag-based editing allows precise object manipulation through point-based control, offering user convenience. However, current methods often suffer from a geometric inconsistency problem by focusing exclusively on matching user-defined points, neglecting the broader geometry and leading to artifacts…
This paper introduces ITA-MDT, the Image-Timestep-Adaptive Masked Diffusion Transformer Framework for Image-Based Virtual Try-On (IVTON), designed to overcome the limitations of previous approaches by leveraging the Masked Diffusion Transformer (MDT) for improved handling of both global garment cont…
3D animation aims to generate a 3D animated video from an input image and a target 3D motion sequence. Recent advances in image-to-3D models enable the creation of animations directly from user-hand drawings. Distinguished from conventional 3D animation, drawing-based 3D animation is crucial to pres…
This paper introduces Timestep-Adaptive Representation Alignment with Onset-Aware Conditioning (TARO), a novel framework for high-fidelity and temporally coherent video-to-audio synthesis. Built upon flow-based transformers, which offer stable training and continuous transformations for enhanced syn…
"Text-based diffusion video editing systems have been successful in performing edits with high fidelity and textual alignment. However, this success is limited to rigid-type editing such as style transfer and object overlay, while preserving the original structure of the input video. This limitation…
"Current image editing methods primarily utilize DDIM Inversion, employing a two-branch diffusion approach to preserve the attributes and layout of the original image. However, these methods encounter challenges with non-rigid edits, which involve altering the image’s layout or structure. Our compre…
Video Corpus Moment Retrieval aims to select a temporal video moment pertinent to a given language query from a large video corpus. Existing systems are prone to rely on a retrieval bias as a shortcut, which hinders the systems from accurately learning vision-language association. The retrieval bias…
"Video moment retrieval (VMR) aims to localize target moments in untrimmed videos pertinent to a given textual query. Existing retrieval systems tend to rely on retrieval bias as a shortcut and thus, fail to sufficiently learn multi-modal interactions between query and video. This retrieval bias ste…
This paper considers Semantic Association Network (SAN) for Video Corpus Moment Retrieval (VCMR) which localizes temporal moment that best corresponds to the given text query in a corpus of videos. Collaborations among common semantics from multi-modal inputs are essential for effectively understand…
