Researchers have introduced MoDDiT, a novel architecture modification for Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) designed to enhance efficiency in image and video generation. MoDDiT enables dynamic computation allocation by learning to route tokens through independent MLP and self-attention operations, allowing for variable compute usage based on token content, image characteristics, and denoising timesteps. This approach significantly reduces computational costs during both training and inference, with MoDDiT processing as few as 12.5% of tokens while improving generation performance over standard baselines. The learned routing patterns are interpretable, offering insights into how computation varies with visual content and noise levels. AI
