VA-TDM uses velocity adversarial distillation to reach state-of-the-art four-step text-to-image and text-to-video generation.

Few-step distillation for diffusion and flow models is challenging due to distribution tracking issues. VA-TDM introduces velocity adversarial distillation with a learned critic to unify score, Fisher, and moment matching. It delivers state-of-the-art results across backbones and scales to 33B MiniMax-H3.

Key facts
  • State-of-the-art four-step performance
  • Combines trajectory distribution matching
  • Outperforms Fast-H3 on MiniMax-H3
  • Effective for text-to-video
