Flash-BoN: Cheap Drafts and Tiered Verification Speed Up Diffusion Inference Scaling

A University of Maryland team presented Flash-BoN at ECCV, using cheap drafts and tiered verification to cut the cost of Best-of-N inference-time scaling for diffusion models; the work will be shown at ECCV 2026 alongside other image-generation research.
