UniSpace: Unified Visual Representation and Scalable Multimodal Modeling
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.08676v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic vision encoders have become a central visual interface for multimodal understanding and semantic conditioning in image generation. However, their final tokens discard fine-grained visual details, leading to poor pixel reconstruction and limiting their use in reconstruction-sensitive tasks such as image generation and editing. In this work, we ask whether understanding, generation, and editing can be modeled in a single visual representation space built from a pretrained semantic ViT. We show that the frozen Transformer blocks of a sema
