HyperDiT: Hyper-Connected Transformers for High-Fidelity Pixel-Space Diffusion

Pixel-space diffusion models bypass the reconstruction bottleneck of Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) but face a fundamental "granularity dilemma": capturing global semantics favors large patch scales, while generating high-fidelity details demands fine-grained inputs. To address this issue, we propose HyperDiT, a unified framework establishing Hyper-Connected Cross-Scale Interactions to bridge the semantic and pixel manifold. Diverging from injecting semantics by AdaLN, HyperDiT utilizes Cross-Attention mechanisms, enabling fine-grained tokens to query multi-level semantic anchors globally. To resolve the spatial mismatch during multi-scale interactions, we introduce Scale-Aware Rotary Position Embedding (SA-RoPE) to ensure precise geometric alignment among tokens of varying patch sizes. Furthermore, we incorporate Registers to learn the dense semantics from a pretrained Visual Foundation Model (VFM), effectively reducing generation hallucination and artifacts. Extensive experiments demonstrate that HyperDiT achieves state-of-the-art (SoTA) FID of 1.56 on ImageNet 256times256 directly within the pixel space. By combining the fine-grained stream with semantic guidance, HyperDiT offers a superior paradigm for high-fidelity pixel generation.
