COLLAR: Cascaded Object-Level Latent Refinement for High-Fidelity Conditional Generation

Xinlong Zhang, Jia Wei, Xiaoyu Zhang et al.

Achieving high-fidelity object-level control in Diffusion Transformers remains a significant challenge despite the introduction of structural priors like depth and Canny maps. Current object-level conditional generation methods frequently suffer from visual artifacts and struggle to maintain precise control over objects within small localized regions. To address these limitations, we propose Cascaded Object-Level Latent Refinement (COLLAR), a training-free framework that progressively optimizes object-level features via the Field-of-View (FoV) expansion. First, we propose the Cross-Scale Semantic Alignment (CSSA) module to address spatial-semantic gaps by injecting object-level features into extended-FoV branches via attention mechanisms. To further optimize these features, the Cyclic Feature Injection (CFI) module introduces a reciprocal background feedback mechanism. It leverages a frequency-based adaptive strategy to selectively update the global backbone with context-aligned local information. Finally, the extended-FoV branch serves as a hub for feature optimization, ensuring that object-level features are integrated into the global generation process without compromising final image quality. Extensive experiments on the COCO-MIG and COCO-POS benchmarks demonstrate that our approach consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across semantic alignment, image quality, and spatial fidelity.

Multi-Scale Diffusion: Enhancing Spatial Layout in High-Resolution Panoramic Image Generation

Xiaoyu Zhang, Teng Zhou, Xinlong Zhang et al.

Diffusion models have recently gained recognition for generating diverse and high-quality content, especially in image synthesis. These models excel not only in creating fixed-size images but also in producing panoramic images. However, existing methods often struggle with spatial layout consistency when producing high-resolution panoramas due to the lack of guidance on the global image layout. This paper introduces the Multi-Scale Diffusion (MSD), an optimized framework that extends the panoramic image generation framework to multiple resolution levels. Our method leverages gradient descent techniques to incorporate structural information from low-resolution images into high-resolution outputs. Through comprehensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations against prior work, we demonstrate that our approach significantly improves the coherence of high-resolution panorama generation.
