This work introduces VAR-VTON, a VAR-based VTON model that incorporates garment conditioning and structural guidance for efficient latent-space VTON, and proposes STAR-VTON, a Two-Stage AutoRegressive framework that builds upon VAR-VTON by decoupling latent-space structural synthesis from pixel-space detail recovery.
Abstract
Virtual try-on (VTON) is a bi-conditional image generation problem that requires not only accurate person preservation but also faithful garment deformation and detail synthesis. Diffusion-based VTON methods can jointly model these factors in a compressed latent space, but suffer from high-frequency detail loss due to inherent latent compression, even with costly multi-step denoising. Recent visual autoregressive (VAR) models offer a promising alternative for high-quality generation with faster inference, yet remain unexplored for VTON due to the lack of effective bi-conditioning mechanisms. To bridge this gap, we first introduce VAR-VTON, a VAR-based VTON model that incorporates garment conditioning and structural guidance for efficient latent-space VTON. Despite its efficacy, latent-space generation still struggles to preserve fine-grained garment details. We argue that different VTON sub-tasks should be addressed in different representation spaces: structural synthesis such as garment warping and person layout is suited to the latent space, whereas fine-grained detail recovery should be tackled in the pixel space. Motivated by this insight, we further propose STAR-VTON, a Two-Stage AutoRegressive framework that builds upon VAR-VTON by decoupling latent-space structural synthesis from pixel-space detail recovery. Our idea is to resort to a matching-informed refiner to establish dense correspondences between the stage-one generation and the source garment to directly map fine-grained pixel-space details. Extensive experiments show that STAR-VTON achieves an impressive efficiency-fidelity trade-off: VAR-VTON runs at least $4\times$ faster than diffusion-based counterparts without degrading quality, and the pixel-space refiner effectively restores fine details and acts as a plug-and-play module that can benefit existing VTON approaches.
MotionCraft is presented, a controllable VSR framework that formulates restoration as motion-aware latent state prediction inspired by world models and integrates adaptive sparse attention with an explicit user-accessible control interface to deliver temporally consistent, high-quality reconstructions under streaming constraints.

High-fidelity 3D generative modeling increasingly relies on the latent diffusion paradigm, where the reconstruction quality of the underlying 3D VAE becomes a primary bottleneck. Existing approaches largely follow two paradigms: sparse voxel-based representations achieve strong reconstruction quality but incur significant memory and computational overhead, while set-based representations are compact and continuous yet typically lag in fidelity due to latent sparsity and excessive global smoothness. We propose MSVS-VAE, a hierarchical set-based VAE that closes this fidelity gap without sacrificing compactness. Our key idea is to progressively densify anchored VecSet latents via hierarchical point-shuffle upsampling, increasing spatial capacity for fine-grained geometry modeling. To efficiently decode from the densified hierarchy, we replace global cross-attention with AVS-Conv, a geometry-aware local aggregation operator operating within local neighborhoods rather than the exhaustive latent set. We further introduce multi-scale query decoding to fuse coarse-to-fine latent features, where coarse scales provide stable global context, and fine scales refine localized geometry, reducing artifacts from overly local receptive fields. Extensive experiments on Objaverse, ABO, and in-the-wild benchmarks demonstrate that MSVS-VAE consistently outperforms prior set-based and voxel-based VAEs, delivering approximately 10x faster decoding than prior set-based methods and approximately 10x higher compactness than voxel-based baselines.

Latent Flow Models have revolutionized compressed-space image synthesis, yet their application to high-fidelity inverse problems remains bottlenecked. In this paper, we trace this dilemma to a fundamental geometric limitation of pre-trained autoencoders, which we term \emph{First-Order Manifold Blindness}. Severe decoder compression (e.g., retaining only $\sim\!2\%$ of the original degrees of freedom) produces a rank-deficient Jacobian, rendering high-frequency measurement residuals in its orthogonal complement invisible to latent gradients even when the decoder can represent the target image. To overcome this bottleneck, we propose Hybrid-Domain Posterior Sampling (HDPS), a decoupled inference framework that disentangles physical measurement consistency from semantic prior modeling. HDPS diverges into the pixel space, leveraging Langevin dynamics to absorb precise orthogonal measurement gradients, and subsequently projects these structural corrections back onto the generative manifold. An optimization-based latent alignment is introduced to filter pixel-space artifacts while avoiding the semantic drift of direct encoding. Extensive experiments on diverse inverse problems demonstrate that HDPS establishes a new state-of-the-art, successfully recovering the high-frequency structural precision that latent-only solvers inherently discard.

Boundary representation (B-Rep) generation is a fundamental task in computer-aided design, yet the direct synthesis of high-fidelity and structurally valid B-Reps remains a major challenge. Existing deep generative methods suffer from two forms of brittleness: representation brittleness, caused by padding noise and feature contamination in the latent space, and generation brittleness, stemming from sequential error propagation and a train-inference mismatch due to non-differentiable validity enforcement. We propose HiFi-BRep, a novel framework that addresses these limitations through two synergistic contributions. First, a topology-aware encoder constructs a high-fidelity latent representation by eliminating padding via learnable queries and preventing feature contamination with topology-guided attention. Second, a single-stage decoder jointly predicts geometry and topology in parallel, embedding core manifold constraints as a differentiable learning objective. This design ensures mutual guidance between geometry and topology while avoiding cascaded errors. Extensive experiments show that HiFi-BRep significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both structural validity and geometric fidelity, providing a robust solution for high-quality B-Rep synthesis.
