Diffusion transformers (DiTs) have emerged as a dominant architecture for text-to-image generation, yet their performance drops when generating at resolutions beyond their training range. Existing training-free approaches mitigate this by modifying inference-time attention behavior, often through Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) extrapolation combined with attention scaling. However, these strategies apply a uniform and content-agnostic scaling across RoPE components with distinct frequency characteristics, inducing a trade-off between preserving global structure and recovering fine detail. We introduce SEGA, a training-free method that dynamically scales attention across RoPE components according to the latent's spatial-frequency structure at each denoising step. This adaptive scaling improves both structural coherence and fine-detail fidelity. Experiments show that SEGA consistently improves high-resolution synthesis across multiple target resolutions, outperforming state-of-the-art training-free baselines.

Photomosaics are large images whose local regions are seen as independent tiles while their overall arrangement forms a coherent scene. Generating them at high resolution, with every tile convincing in its own right, is computationally expensive, since the canvas must hold many detailed tiles at once. We present PhotoQuilt, a training-free framework that generates photomosaics at arbitrary resolution. Diffusion models struggle to satisfy both scales at once, as direct high-resolution generation is costly and tends toward one smooth image rather than a mosaic, while patch-based tiling keeps local detail but loses global structure. PhotoQuilt resolves this with a bootstrapped tiled denoising procedure. We first produce a global composition at low resolution to fix the layout, then upscale it in latent space and re-inject noise to restore generative capacity. Denoising proceeds within fixed tiles, so each forms its own image while the shared global structure holds them in one layout. Because tile generation is handled separately, PhotoQuilt scales to large canvases without quadratic attention cost. Experiments show that PhotoQuilt outperforms current baselines on both global structure and local realism.
