Microsoft’s Mage-Flow Brings Fast 4B Image Generation
Overview Mage-Flow is a 4B-parameter generative stack built by microsoft for efficient text-to-image generation and instruction-based image editing. The core architecture consists of two co-designed components: Mage-VAE, a lightweight latent tokenizer using one-step diffusion encode/decode with anchor-latent KL regularization, and NR-MMDiT, a Native-Resolution Multimodal Diffusion Transformer trained with rectified
