Breaking Semantic Boundaries: Distribution-Guided Semantic Exploration for Creative Generation

CVPR 2026

Text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models effectively produce semantically aligned images, but their reliance on training distributions constrains their capacity for synthesizing truly novel, out-of-distribution concepts. Existing methods attempt to enhance creativity through semantic exploration, such a

DivControl: Knowledge Diversion for Controllable Image Generation

AAAI 2026technical

Diffusion models have advanced from text-to-image (T2I) to image-to-image (I2I) generation by incorporating structured inputs such as depth maps, enabling fine-grained spatial control. However, existing methods either train separate models for each condition or rely on unified architectures with ent

FINE: Factorizing Knowledge for Initialization of Variable-sized Diffusion Models

CVPR 2026

The training of diffusion models is computationally intensive, making effective pre-training essential. However, real-world deployments often demand models of variable sizes due to diverse memory and computational constraints, posing challenges when corresponding pre-trained versions are unavailable

Knowledge Diversion for Efficient Morphology Control and Policy Transfer

ICML 2026poster

Universal morphology control aims to learn a universal policy that generalizes across heterogeneous robot morphologies, with Transformer-based controllers emerging as a dominant choice. However, such architectures incur substantial computational costs, resulting in high deployment overhead, and exis…

Self-Supervised Weight Templates for Scalable Vision Model Initialization

ICML 2026poster

The increasing scale and complexity of modern model parameters underscore the importance of pre-trained models. However, deployment often demands architectures of varying sizes, exposing limitations of conventional pre-training and fine-tuning. To address this, we propose SWEET, a self-supervised fr…

ECO: Evolving Core Knowledge for Efficient Transfer

NeurIPS 2025poster

Knowledge in modern neural networks is often entangled and structurally opaque, making current transfer methods—typically based on reusing entire parameter sets—inefficient and inflexible. Efforts to improve flexibility by reusing partial parameters frequently depend on handcrafted heuristics or rig…

KIND: Knowledge Integration and Diversion for Training Decomposable Models

ICML 2025poster

Pre-trained models have become the preferred backbone due to the increasing complexity of model parameters. However, traditional pre-trained models often face deployment challenges due to their fixed sizes, and are prone to negative transfer when discrepancies arise between training tasks and target…
