A Gradient Recovery Method for Electron Magnetohydrodynamics with Fractional Dissipation

We propose and analyze a structure-preserving numerical method for the $2\tfrac{1}{2}$-dimensional (2.5D) electron magnetohydrodynamics system with fractional dissipation on the periodic torus. The method works directly with the magnetic field components and combines this component formulation with the gradient recovery operator of [T. Chu, H. Guo, and Z. Zhang, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 63 (2025), pp. 23--53]. We establish discrete energy stability for a semi-implicit structure-preserving formulation and use an explicit-Hall integrating-factor implementation for efficient computation on periodic grids. The fractional dissipation is treated exactly in Fourier space, and the in-plane divergence constraint is enforced by a spectral Hodge projection. Numerical experiments demonstrate second-order spatial convergence and stable Hall-driven dynamics across several benchmark tests.

CollectionLoRA: Collecting 50 Effects in 1 LoRA via Multi-Teacher On-Policy Distillation

Customized image editing aims to equip pre-trained diffusion models with specific visual effects using limited paired data, typically via Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA). As the number of desired effects grows, storing and dynamically loading numerous these effect LoRAs significantly increases deployment overhead. Furthermore, current pipelines typically cascade these effect LoRAs with acceleration modules for fast generation, which triggers severe parameter interference and results in concept bleeding and style degradation. We propose CollectionLoRA, a multi-teacher on-policy distillation framework capable of distilling the concepts of up to 50 different effect LoRAs along with few-step generation capabilities into a single LoRA. This fundamentally resolves the feature interference issue and significantly reduces deployment costs. Specifically, the method introduces (i) a Probabilistic Dual-Stream Routing mechanism that enables the model to randomly switch between data sources during training, effectively enhancing its generalization in unseen scenarios; (ii) an Asymmetric Orthogonal Prompting strategy to achieve concept isolation within the prompt space; (iii) a Coarse-to-Fine Distillation Objective to mitigate the distribution gap between the teacher and student models. Extensive evaluations show that CollectionLoRA distills all customized effects and few-step generation into a single LoRA, reducing deployment overhead while achieving concept fidelity comparable to or better than independently trained teacher models.

Live Avatar: Streaming Real-time Audio-Driven Avatar Generation with Infinite Length

Audio-driven avatar interaction demands real-time, streaming, and infinite-length generation -- capabilities fundamentally at odds with the sequential denoising and long-horizon drift of current diffusion models. We present Live Avatar, an algorithm-system co-designed framework that addresses both challenges for a 14-billion-parameter diffusion model. On the algorithm side, a two-stage pipeline distills a pretrained bidirectional model into a causal, few-step streaming one, while a set of complementary long-horizon strategies eliminate identity drift and visual artifacts, enabling stable autoregressive generation exceeding 10000 seconds. On the system side, Timestep-forcing Pipeline Parallelism (TPP) assigns each GPU a fixed denoising timestep, converting the sequential diffusion chain into an asynchronous spatial pipeline that simultaneously boosts throughput and improves temporal consistency. Live Avatar achieves 45 FPS with a TTFF of 1.21\,s on 5 H800 GPUs, and to our knowledge is the first to enable practical real-time streaming of a 14B diffusion model for infinite-length avatar generation. We further introduce GenBench, a standardized long-form benchmark, to facilitate reproducible evaluation. Our project page is at https://liveavatar.github.io/.

Polynomial preserving recovery for PHT-splines

We propose a polynomial preserving recovery method for PHT-splines within isogeometric analysis to obtain more accurate gradient approximations. The method fully exploits the local interpolation properties of PHT-splines and avoids the need for information on gradient superconvergent points. By leveraging the superconvergence argument of difference quotients and the interior error estimate, we establish the superconvergence property of the recovered gradient on translation invariant meshes. As a byproduct, a recovery-based a posteriori error estimator is developed for adaptive refinement. Numerical results confirm the theoretical findings and demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

An FDM-sFEM scheme on time-space manifolds and its superconvergence analysis

We study superconvergent discretization of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on time-space product manifolds with Neumann temporal boundary values, which arise in the context of dynamic optimal transport on general surfaces. We propose a coupled scheme that combines finite difference methods in time with surface finite element methods in space. By establishing a new summation by parts formula and proving the supercloseness of the semi-discrete solution, we derive superconvergence results for the recovered gradient via post-processing techniques. In addition, our geometric error analysis is implemented within a novel framework based on the approximation of the Riemannian metric. Several numerical examples are provided to validate and illustrate the theoretical results.

When surface evolution meets Fokker-Planck equation: a novel tangential velocity model for uniform parametrization

A common issue in simulating geometric evolution of surfaces is unexpected clustering of points that may cause numerical instability. We propose a novel artificial tangential velocity method for this matter. The artificial tangential velocity is generated from a surface density field governed by a Fokker-Planck equation to guide the point distribution. A target distribution matching algorithm is developed leveraging the surface Kullback-Leibler divergence of density functions. The numerical method is formulated within a fully meshless framework using the moving least squares approximation, thereby eliminating the need for mesh generation and allowing flexible treatment of unstructured point cloud data. Extensive numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the robustness, accuracy, and effectiveness of the proposed approach across a variety of surface evolution problems, including the mean curvature flow.

Derivative estimation by RKHS regularization for learning dynamics from time-series data

Learning the governing equations from time-series data has gained increasing attention due to its potential to extract useful dynamics from real-world data. Despite significant progress, it becomes challenging in the presence of noise, especially when derivatives need to be calculated. To reduce the effect of noise, we propose a method that simultaneously fits both the derivative and trajectory from noisy time-series data. Our approach formulates derivative estimation as an inverse problem involving integral operators within the forward model, and estimates the derivative function by solving a regularization problem in a vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert space (vRKHS). We derive an integral-form representer theorem, which enables the computation of the regularized solution by solving a finite-dimensional problem and facilitates efficiently estimating the optimal regularization parameter. By embedding the dynamics within a vRKHS and utilizing the fitted derivative and trajectory, we can recover the underlying dynamics from noisy data by solving a linear regularization problem. Several numerical experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method.

PhotoDoodle: Learning Artistic Image Editing from Few-Shot Pairwise Data

We introduce PhotoDoodle, a novel image editing framework designed to facilitate photo doodling by enabling artists to overlay decorative elements onto photographs. Photo doodling is challenging because the inserted elements must appear seamlessly integrated with the background, requiring realistic blending, perspective alignment, and contextual coherence. Additionally, the background must be preserved without distortion, and the artist's unique style must be captured efficiently from limited training data. These requirements are not addressed by previous methods that primarily focus on global style transfer or regional inpainting. The proposed method, PhotoDoodle, employs a two-stage training strategy. Initially, we train a general-purpose image editing model, OmniEditor, using large-scale data. Subsequently, we fine-tune this model with EditLoRA using a small, artist-curated dataset of before-and-after image pairs to capture distinct editing styles and techniques. To enhance consistency in the generated results, we introduce a positional encoding reuse mechanism. Additionally, we release a PhotoDoodle dataset featuring six high-quality styles. Extensive experiments demonstrate the advanced performance and robustness of our method in customized image editing, opening new possibilities for artistic creation.

Any2AnyTryon: Leveraging Adaptive Position Embeddings for Versatile Virtual Clothing Tasks

Image-based virtual try-on (VTON) aims to generate a virtual try-on result by transferring an input garment onto a target person's image. However, the scarcity of paired garment-model data makes it challenging for existing methods to achieve high generalization and quality in VTON. Also, it limits the ability to generate mask-free try-ons. To tackle the data scarcity problem, approaches such as Stable Garment and MMTryon use a synthetic data strategy, effectively increasing the amount of paired data on the model side. However, existing methods are typically limited to performing specific try-on tasks and lack user-friendliness. To enhance the generalization and controllability of VTON generation, we propose Any2AnyTryon, which can generate try-on results based on different textual instructions and model garment images to meet various needs, eliminating the reliance on masks, poses, or other conditions. Specifically, we first construct the virtual try-on dataset LAION-Garment, the largest known open-source garment try-on dataset. Then, we introduce adaptive position embedding, which enables the model to generate satisfactory outfitted model images or garment images based on input images of different sizes and categories, significantly enhancing the generalization and controllability of VTON generation. In our experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our Any2AnyTryon and compare it with existing methods. The results show that Any2AnyTryon enables flexible, controllable, and high-quality image-based virtual try-on generation. https://logn-2024.github.io/Any2anyTryonProjectPage

Recovery Techniques for Finite Element Methods

Post-processing techniques are essential tools for enhancing the accuracy of finite element approximations and achieving superconvergence. Among these, recovery techniques stand out as vital methods, playing significant roles in both post-processing and pre-processing. This paper provides an overview of recent developments in recovery techniques and their applications in adaptive computations. The discussion encompasses both gradient recovery and Hessian recovery methods. To establish the superconvergence properties of these techniques, two theoretical frameworks are introduced. Applications of these methods are demonstrated in constructing asymptotically exact {\it a posteriori} error estimators for second-order elliptic equations, fourth-order elliptic equations, and interface problems. Numerical experiments are performed to evaluate the asymptotic exactness of recovery type a posteriori error estimators.

New $C^0$ interior penalty method for Monge-Ampère equations

Monge-Ampère equation is a prototype second-order fully nonlinear partial differential equation. In this paper, we propose a new idea to design and analyze the $C^0$ interior penalty method to approximation the viscosity solution of the Monge-Ampère equation. The new methods is inspired from the discrete Miranda-Talenti estimate. Based on the vanishing moment representation, we approximate the Monge-Ampère equation by the fourth order semi-linear equation with some additional boundary conditions. We will use the discrete Miranda-Talenti estimates to ensure the well-posedness of the numerical scheme and derive the error estimates.

Virtual Element Methods for HJB Equations with Cordes Coefficients

In this paper, we propose and analyze both conforming and nonconforming virtual element methods (VEMs) for the fully nonlinear second-order elliptic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations with Cordes coefficients. By incorporating stabilization terms, we establish the well-posedness of the proposed methods, thus avoiding the need to construct a discrete Miranda-Talenti estimate. We derive the optimal error estimate in the discrete $H^2$ norm for both numerical formulations. Furthermore, a semismooth Newton's method is employed to linearize the discrete problems. Several numerical experiments using the lowest-order VEMs are provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed methods and to validate our theoretical results.

Continuous Linear Finite Element Method for Biharmonic Problems on Surfaces

This paper presents an innovative continuous linear finite element approach to effectively solve biharmonic problems on surfaces. The key idea behind this method lies in the strategic utilization of a surface gradient recovery operator to compute the second-order surface derivative of a piecewise continuous linear function defined on the approximate surface, as conventional notions of second-order derivatives are not directly applicable in this context. By incorporating appropriate stabilizations, we rigorously establish the stability of the proposed formulation. Despite the presence of geometric error, we provide optimal error estimates in both the energy norm and $L^2$ norm. Theoretical results are supported by numerical experiments.

Temporal Difference Learning for High-Dimensional PIDEs with Jumps

In this paper, we propose a deep learning framework for solving high-dimensional partial integro-differential equations (PIDEs) based on the temporal difference learning. We introduce a set of Levy processes and construct a corresponding reinforcement learning model. To simulate the entire process, we use deep neural networks to represent the solutions and non-local terms of the equations. Subsequently, we train the networks using the temporal difference error, termination condition, and properties of the non-local terms as the loss function. The relative error of the method reaches O(10^{-3}) in 100-dimensional experiments and O(10^{-4}) in one-dimensional pure jump problems. Additionally, our method demonstrates the advantages of low computational cost and robustness, making it well-suited for addressing problems with different forms and intensities of jumps.

Unfitted Spectral Element Method for interfacial models

In this paper, we propose the unfitted spectral element method for solving elliptic interface and corresponding eigenvalue problems. The novelty of the proposed method lies in its combination of the spectral accuracy of the spectral element method and the flexibility of the unfitted Nitsche's method. We also use tailored ghost penalty terms to enhance its robustness. We establish optimal $hp$ convergence rates for both elliptic interface problems and interface eigenvalue problems. Additionally, we demonstrate spectral accuracy for model problems in terms of polynomial degree.

StableGarment: Garment-Centric Generation via Stable Diffusion

In this paper, we introduce StableGarment, a unified framework to tackle garment-centric(GC) generation tasks, including GC text-to-image, controllable GC text-to-image, stylized GC text-to-image, and robust virtual try-on. The main challenge lies in retaining the intricate textures of the garment while maintaining the flexibility of pre-trained Stable Diffusion. Our solution involves the development of a garment encoder, a trainable copy of the denoising UNet equipped with additive self-attention (ASA) layers. These ASA layers are specifically devised to transfer detailed garment textures, also facilitating the integration of stylized base models for the creation of stylized images. Furthermore, the incorporation of a dedicated try-on ControlNet enables StableGarment to execute virtual try-on tasks with precision. We also build a novel data engine that produces high-quality synthesized data to preserve the model's ability to follow prompts. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach delivers state-of-the-art (SOTA) results among existing virtual try-on methods and exhibits high flexibility with broad potential applications in various garment-centric image generation.
