Addressing Temporal Artifacts in DiTs

Consistency is the holy grail for video generation. Using frequency-based guidance to stop flickering is a pragmatic approach that could clean up video outputs immediately.

Precise Multi-Subject Layout Control with PromptExecutor

Layout control for images is getting robust. This paper tackles the

Source-Free Domain Adaptation for Diffusion Models

Generating lingering artifacts? This method tackles motion disentanglement, allowing you to edit the subject's movement without warping the background.
