Three diffusion papers head to ECCV: Flash-BoN, PFM and dynamic image-gen benchmarks

RisingSayak is heading to ECCV in Sweden, starting with a tutorial on September 8, "Post-Training Diffusion Models: Enhancing Capabilities, Control, and Alignment," followed by three papers he co-authored:
- Flash-BoN: best-of-n is surprisingly effective when compute is spent better.
- PAFM: sampling posteriors better in flow-matching.
- DynEval: most image generation benchmarks are stale; making them dynamic lets models evolve without evolving the benchmark.
The works span post-training capability, control and evaluation for diffusion models, and the author invites attendees to challenge him on the details.
