LF-MultiDiffusion introduces a training-free approach to spherical panorama generation by reformulating latent aggregation as a regularized least-squares problem solved via Krylov-based iterative solvers. This method significantly improves inference efficiency and visual consistency compared to existing baselines, reducing the need for extensive perspective views during the denoising loop.
Linear Fusion MultiDiffusion for Fast Training-Free Spherical Panorama Generation
arXiv:2609.01997v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose LF-MultiDiffusion, a training-free panorama generation method that extends MultiDiffusion to support linear projections between target and reference image spaces. Our key idea is to reformulate latent aggregation as a regularized least-squares problem and solve it efficiently with a Krylov-based iterative solver inside the denoising loop. This formulation enables denser and more natural mappings than prior training-free methods, yielding more stable generation with far fewer perspective views. As a result, LF-MultiDiffusion reduces the number of image generator evaluations during denoising and significantly improves inference efficiency. Experiments show that LF-MultiDiffusion achieves better visual quality, text alignment, and panoramic consistency than the strongest training-free baseline, while providing a 15.36$\times$ speedup.
