SIGMA: Selective-Interleaved Generation with Multi-Attribute Tokens

Abstract

Recent unified models such as Bagel demonstrate that paired image-edit data can effectively align multiple visual tasks within a single diffusion transformer. However, these models remain limited to single-condition inputs and lack the flexibility needed to synthesize results from multiple heterogeneous sources. We present SIGMA (Selective-Interleaved Generation with Multi-Attribute Tokens), a unified post-training framework that enables interleaved multi-condition generation within diffusion transformers. SIGMA introduces selective multi-attribute tokens, including style, content, subject and identity tokens, which allow the model to interpret and compose multiple visual conditions in an interleaved text-image sequence. Through post-training on the Bagel unified backbone with 700K interleaved examples, SIGMA supports compositional editing, selective attribute transfer and fine-grained multimodal alignment. Extensive experiments show that SIGMA improves controllability, cross-condition consistency and visual quality across diverse editing and generation tasks, with substantial gains over Bagel on compositional tasks.
