Fixed-Point Masked Generative Modeling
Masked Generative Models (MGMs) enable parallel decoding and achieve strong performance across modalities, but require full-sequence bidirectional transformers at every step, making training costly and degrading quality under low sampling budgets. Existing work improves efficiency via better samplers or cheaper fixed-depth denoisers, but they still allocate a fixed amount of denoiser computation to each refinement step. We introduce Fixed-Point Masked Generative Models (FP-MGMs), which replace part of the denoiser with a fixed-point solver over shared attention layers to enable adaptive depth with fewer parameters. To make it more effective for masked generation, we first introduce a cros...
