Are We Overthinking One-Step Generation?
AI 导读
Priming Models 是一种两阶段一步生成器训练框架,先在固定噪声级别下做像素空间去噪重建,再进行特征空间分布后训练。该重建阶段即可完全消除分布训练的难度,在 ImageNet 256×256 上以约十分之一的训练算力实现一步生成器 SOTA 的 FID 1.19。代码已开源。

Abstract:Diffusion and flow matching are now dominant frameworks for generative modeling in continuous domains, but they typically require multiple network evaluations at inference. This has motivated extensive research on one-step generative modeling primarily built on diffusion and flow, though existing approaches often rely on complex training machinery. In this work, we introduce Priming Models, a simple two-stage framework for training one-step generators. Motivated by the difficulty of distributional training from scratch, Priming Models are first trained on a reconstruction objective, e.g., pixel-space denoising at a fixed noise level, before undergoing feature-space distributional post-training. Our central scientific finding is that this simple reconstruction stage is already enough to entirely alleviate the difficulty of distributional training. Empirically, across class-conditional image generation, text-to-image generation, and world modeling, Priming Models significantly advance the Pareto frontier of training compute vs. generation quality. On ImageNet at $256 \times 256$ resolution, we achieve a state-of-the-art FID of $1.19$ among one-step generators using approximately one-tenth the training compute of prior methods with comparable FID.
