Diffusion Transformers achieve strong image generation performance, but most operate in compressed latent spaces. Pixel-space diffusion avoids this information loss, yet existing approaches map each raw image patch to a single token, forcing one representation to handle both global communication and fine-grained details. We address this issue by proposing a new architecture, \textbf{DuSPiT}, a \textbf{Du}al-branch \textbf{S}ub\textbf{P}atch \textbf{Pi}xel \textbf{T}ransformer. This model separates global structural reasoning from local appearance modeling. DuSPiT uses a compact base branch for efficient global reasoning and a parallel, high-capacity pixel branch, organized into subpatch groups, to preserve detailed appearance, with the two branches interacting through cross-attention. Our results show that DuSPiT generates images with richer details and stronger fine-grained structures, while also achieving a better quality--efficiency trade-off than prior pixel-space diffusion transformers.
In production processes for consumer products, assembly instructions are essential not only for planning but also for executing the production process. Likewise in robotics, it is crucial for an assembly robot to understand how components fit together and can be assembled. To fac…
Collision anticipation in autonomous driving requires not only accurate early warnings but also interpretable reasoning about what risk factors are being tracked and how risk evolves over time. Existing methods fall short in this regard: feature-driven models are opaque, post-hoc…
Multimodal chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning integrates visual and textual cues through step-by-step inference. In small models with limited token budgets, modality-interaction fusion often suppresses tiny cross-modal differences. In particular, multimodal CoT often struggles when…
MEMEs are widely used on the internet and often carry strong elements of sarcasm or irony. Understanding their hidden meanings typically requires a joint interpretation of text and vision. Existing methods focus on the dual-stream vision-language model to extract the visual and t…
Accurate yet low-latency depth is essential for radar-camera perception in autonomous systems. Cameras provide rich appearance but lack metric scale, whereas automotive radar offers metric range but is sparse and noisy. Many pipelines are multi-stage or depend on auxiliary annota…
Action-conditioned video world models predict future observations from an initial observation and an action signal. In robotics, actions influence future observations through two distinct processes: they are first realized into robot motion by the robot body and controller, and t…
