Researchers have introduced a novel method called Cross-Space Distillation to transfer knowledge from large, high-capacity diffusion models to smaller, more efficient student models. This technique overcomes the limitation where teacher and student models must share the same latent space, enabling the distillation of knowledge from advanced models like SD 3.5 and Flux into more compact models such as SD 1.5. The core innovation is a 'Bridge' interface that maps student model latents into the teacher's space, facilitating significant improvements in student model performance while maintaining one-step inference and low latency.
