TMP: Tree-structured Mixed-policy Pruning for Large-scale Image Generation and Editing

Modern image generation model rapidly grows their sizes to meet high-fidelity image synthesis. However, they gradually become unaffordable for their enormous parameter consumption and computation budget that lead to massive resources requirement and gpu memory footprint. In this paper, we propose TMP, the first Tree-structured Mixed-policy Pruning framework that generalizes prevalent image tasks (T2I and TI2I) and architectures (Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) and Diffusion transformer (DiT)). It could be applied to the step-distilled models and contribute as the last stage. We perform experiments upon current open-sourced SOTA HunyuanImage-3.0 instruct and a popular efficient model Z-Image turbo. The proposed pruning framework manages to compress HunyuanImage 3.0 from 80B to 20B parameters at 75% reduction ratio, sacrificing limited generation quality. We also optimize to enable the inference of the pruned 20B version of HunyuanImage 3.0 on a single 24GB 4090 GPU by engineering skills. The inference script and model weight have been integrated into the existing HunyuanImage3.0 open-source github and huggingface repository. Besides, we prove the efficacy of TMP by compressing Z-Image turbo from 6B to 4B (33% reduction) with negligible degradation.

Sherry: Hardware-Efficient 1.25-Bit Ternary Quantization via Fine-grained Sparsification

The deployment of Large Language Models (LLMs) on resource-constrained edge devices is increasingly hindered by prohibitive memory and computational requirements. While ternary quantization offers a compelling solution by reducing weights to {-1, 0, +1}, current implementations suffer from a fundamental misalignment with commodity hardware. Most existing methods must choose between 2-bit aligned packing, which incurs significant bit wastage, or 1.67-bit irregular packing, which degrades inference speed. To resolve this tension, we propose Sherry, a hardware-efficient ternary quantization framework. Sherry introduces a 3:4 fine-grained sparsity that achieves a regularized 1.25-bit width by packing blocks of four weights into five bits, restoring power-of-two alignment. Furthermore, we identify weight trapping issue in sparse ternary training, which leads to representational collapse. To address this, Sherry introduces Arenas, an annealing residual synapse mechanism that maintains representational diversity during training. Empirical evaluations on LLaMA-3.2 across five benchmarks demonstrate that Sherry matches state-of-the-art ternary performance while significantly reducing model size. Notably, on an Intel i7-14700HX CPU, our 1B model achieves zero accuracy loss compared to SOTA baselines while providing 25% bit savings and 10% speed up.

HunyuanVideo 1.5 Technical Report

We present HunyuanVideo 1.5, a lightweight yet powerful open-source video generation model that achieves state-of-the-art visual quality and motion coherence with only 8.3 billion parameters, enabling efficient inference on consumer-grade GPUs. This achievement is built upon several key components, including meticulous data curation, an advanced DiT architecture featuring selective and sliding tile attention (SSTA), enhanced bilingual understanding through glyph-aware text encoding, progressive pre-training and post-training, and an efficient video super-resolution network. Leveraging these designs, we developed a unified framework capable of high-quality text-to-video and image-to-video generation across multiple durations and resolutions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that this compact and proficient model establishes a new state-of-the-art among open-source video generation models. By releasing the code and model weights, we provide the community with a high-performance foundation that lowers the barrier to video creation and research, making advanced video generation accessible to a broader audience. All open-source assets are publicly available at https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/HunyuanVideo-1.5.
