Researchers have introduced ManiFusion, a novel framework designed to significantly increase the throughput of diffusion models for image generation. Unlike methods that focus on reducing per-sample latency, ManiFusion processes multiple samples concurrently by fusing them into a shared representation before the denoising process and separating them afterward. The framework incorporates Trajectory-Fusion Scheduling (TFS) to dynamically adjust fusion allocation across sampling stages, ensuring optimal information retention for individual sample trajectories. ManiFusion is adaptable to various diffusion model architectures, including U-Net and transformer backbones, and can be combined with existing acceleration techniques to achieve unprecedented throughput levels with minimal impact on image quality.
