Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for scaling model capacity while preserving computational efficiency. Despite its notable success in large language models (LLMs), existing attempts to apply MoE to Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have yielded limited gains. We attribute this…
Although unified MLLMs aim to unify generation and understanding, they are considered to exhibit an internal gap, with understanding outperforming generation. Through large‑scale evaluation across multiple MLLMs and tasks, we confirm the widespread non‑unification of MLLMs, and demonstrate that it i…

As a fundamental backbone for video generation, diffusion models are challenged by low inference speed due to the sequential nature of denoising.Previous methods speed up the models by caching and reusing model outputs at uniformly selected timesteps.However, such a strategy neglects the fact that d…

Diffusion-based text-to-video generation has witnessed impressive progress in the past year yet still falls behind text-to-image generation. One of the key reasons is the limited scale of publicly available data (e.g. 10M video-text pairs in WebVid10M vs. 5B image-text pairs in LAION) considering th…
Audio-driven talking head synthesis is a promising topic with wide applications in digital human, film making and virtual reality. Recent NeRF-based approaches have shown superiority in quality and fidelity compared to previous studies. However, when it comes to few-shot talking head generation, a p…
2D RGB images and 3D LIDAR point clouds provide complementary knowledge for the perception system of autonomous vehicles. Several 2D and 3D fusion methods have been explored for the LIDAR semantic segmentation task, but they suffer from different problems. 2D-to-3D fusion methods require strictly pa
Customized generation using diffusion models has made impressive progress in image generation but remains unsatisfactory in the challenging video generation task as it requires the controllability of both subjects and motions.

Generating a talking face video from the input audio sequence is a practical yet challenging task. Most existing methods either fail to capture fine facial details or need to train a specific model for each identity. We argue that a codebook pre-learned on high-quality face images can serve as a use…
