Spectral and Trajectory Regularization for Diffusion Transformer Super-Resolution

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.06275v1 Announce Type: new Diffusion transformer (DiT) architectures show great potential for real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR). However, their computationally expensive iterative sampling necessitates one-step distillation. Existing one-step distillation methods struggle with Real-ISR on DiT. They suffer from fundamental trajectory mismatch and generate severe grid-like periodic artifacts. To tackle these challenges, we propose StrSR, a novel one-step adversarial distillation framework featuring spectral and trajectory regularization.
