NextStep-1: Toward Autoregressive Image Generation with Continuous Tokens at Scale

ICLR 2026oral

Prevailing autoregressive (AR) models for text-to-image generation either rely on heavy, computationally-intensive diffusion models to process continuous image tokens, or employ vector quantization (VQ) to obtain discrete tokens with quantization loss. In this paper, we push the autoregressive parad…

Diffusion Feedback Helps CLIP See Better

ICLR 2025poster

Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP), which excels at abstracting open-world representations across domains and modalities, has become a foundation for a variety of vision and multimodal tasks. However, recent studies reveal that CLIP has severe visual shortcomings, such as which can hardl…

Taming Teacher Forcing for Masked Autoregressive Video Generation

CVPR 2025poster

We introduce MAGI, a hybrid video generation framework that combines masked modeling for intra-frame generation with causal modeling for next-frame generation. Our key innovation, Complete Teacher Forcing (CTF), conditions masked frames on complete observation frames rather than masked ones (namely…

CapsFusion: Rethinking Image-Text Data at Scale

CVPR 2024poster

Large multimodal models demonstrate remarkable generalist ability to perform diverse multimodal tasks in a zero-shot manner. Large-scale web-based image-text pairs contribute fundamentally to this success but suffer from excessive noise. Recent studies use alternative captions synthesized by caption…

Emu: Generative Pretraining in Multimodality

ICLR 2024poster

We present Emu, a multimodal foundation model that seamlessly generates images and text in multimodal context. This omnivore model can take in any single-modality or multimodal data input indiscriminately (e.g., interleaved image, text and video) through a one-model-for-all autoregressive training p…

Generative Multimodal Models are In-Context Learners

CVPR 2024poster

Humans can easily solve multimodal tasks in context with only a few demonstrations or simple instructions which current multimodal systems largely struggle to imitate. In this work we demonstrate that by effectively scaling up generative multimodal models their task-agnostic in-context learning capa…

EVA: Exploring the Limits of Masked Visual Representation Learning at Scale

CVPR 2023highlight

We launch EVA, a vision-centric foundation model to explore the limits of visual representation at scale using only publicly accessible data. EVA is a vanilla ViT pre-trained to reconstruct the masked out image-text aligned vision features conditioned on visible image patches. Via this pretext task,…

Thermal Infrared Image Inpainting Via Edge-Aware Guidance

ICASSP 2023accepted

Image inpainting has achieved fundamental advances with deep learning. However, almost all existing inpainting methods aim to process natural images, while few target Thermal Infrared (TIR) images, which have widespread applications. When applied to TIR images, conventional inpainting methods usuall…

The Multi-Agent Behavior Dataset: Mouse Dyadic Social Interactions

NeurIPS 2021poster

Multi-agent behavior modeling aims to understand the interactions that occur between agents. We present a multi-agent dataset from behavioral neuroscience, the Caltech Mouse Social Interactions (CalMS21) Dataset. Our dataset consists of trajectory data of social interactions, recorded from videos of…
