Reinforcement Learning-driven Diffusion Models: Language, Vision, and Beyond
arXiv:2610.21539v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models (DMs) have steadily demonstrated outstanding performance in high-fidelity, controllable generation across diverse scenarios, following the "pretraining-finetuning" paradigm established in LLMs. Despite these advances, conventional DMs still face critical limitations in sophisticated reasoning, autonomous exploration of generation pathways, and adaptability to complex, human-aligned objectives. Inspired by RLHF's success in LLMs, R…
