Graph Generative Pre-trained Transformer (G2PT): An Auto-Regressive Model Designed to Learn Graph Structures through Next-Token Prediction
Graph generation is an important task across various fields, including molecular design and social network analysis, due to its ability to model complex relationships and structured data. Despite recent advancements, many graph generative models still rely heavily on adjacency matrix representations. While effective, these methods can be computationally demanding and often lack flexibility. This can…

From Latent Spaces to State-of-the-Art: The Journey of LightningDiT
Latent diffusion models are advanced techniques for generating high-resolution images by compressing visual data into a latent space using visual tokenizers. These tokenizers reduce computational demands while retaining essential details. However, such models suffer from a critical challenge: increasing the dimensions of the token feature increases reconstruction quality but decreases image generation quality. It thus…
