Diffusion model distillation has emerged as a powerful technique for creating efficient few-step and single-step generators. Among these, Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) and its variants stand out for their impressive performance, which is widely attributed to their core mechanism of matchi…
We introduce Lumina-Image 2.0, an advanced text-to-image (T2I) model that surpasses previous state-of-the-art methods across multiple benchmarks. Lumina-Image 2.0 is characterized by two key features: (1) Unification - it adopts a unified architecture (Unified Next-DiT) that treats text and image to…
Sora unveils the potential of scaling Diffusion Transformer (DiT) for generating photorealistic images and videos at arbitrary resolutions, aspect ratios, and durations, yet it still lacks sufficient implementation details. In this paper, we introduce the Lumina-T2X family -- a series of Flow-based…
Recent advances in diffusion models have significantly advanced image generation; however, existing models remain task-specific, limiting their efficiency and generalizability. While universal models attempt to address these limitations, they face critical challenges, including generalizable instruc…
High-resolution image generation with Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has immense potential but due to the enormous capital investment required for training it is increasingly centralised to a few large corporations and hidden behind paywalls. This paper aims to democratise high-resolutio…
Lumina-T2X is a nascent family of Flow-based Large Diffusion Transformers (Flag-DiT) that establishes a unified framework for transforming noise into various modalities, such as images and videos, conditioned on text instructions. Despite its promising capabilities, Lumina-T2X still encounters chall…
Current fine-grained visual classification (FGVC) models are isolated. In practice, we first need to identify the coarse-grained label of an object, then select the corresponding FGVC model for recognition. This hinders the application of the FGVC algorithm in real-life scenarios. In this paper, we…
Despite the remarkable progress of Fine-grained visual classification (FGVC) with years of history, it is still limited to recognizing 2 images. Recognizing objects in the physical world (i.e., 3D environment) poses a unique challenge -- discriminative information is not only present in visible loca…
Although machines have surpassed humans on visual recognition problems, they are still limited to providing closed-set answers. Unlike machines, humans can cognize novel categories at the first observation. Novel category discovery (NCD) techniques, transferring knowledge from seen categories to dis…
Although existing few-shot learning works yield promising results for in-domain queries, they still suffer from weak cross-domain generalization. Limited support data requires effective knowledge transfer, but domain-shift makes this harder. Towards this emerging challenge, researchers improved adap…
"Compositional Zero-Shot Learning (CZSL) aims to recognize novel compositions using knowledge learned from seen attribute-object compositions in the training set. Previous works mainly project an image and a composition into a common embedding space to measure their compatibility score. However, bot…
Fine-grained visual classification (FGVC) is much more challenging than traditional classification tasks due to the inherently subtle intra-class object variations. Recent works mainly tackle this problem by focusing on how to locate the most discriminative parts, more complementary parts, and parts o…
