Geometric Autoencoder for Diffusion Models
Latent diffusion models have established a new state-of-the-art in high-resolution visual generation. Integrating Vision Foundation Model priors improves generative efficiency, yet existing latent designs remain largely heuristic. These approaches often struggle to unify semantic discriminability, reconstruction fidelity, and latent compactness. In this paper, we propose Geometric Autoencoder (GAE), a principled framework that systematically addresses these challenges. By analyzing various alignment paradigms, GAE constructs an optimized low-dimensional semantic supervision target from VFMs to provide guidance for the autoencoder. Furthermore, we leverage latent normalization that replace...
