SSIMBaD: Sigma Scaling with SSIM-Guided Balanced Diffusion for AnimeFace Colorization
We propose a novel diffusion-based framework for automatic colorization of Anime-style facial sketches. Our method preserves the structural fidelity of the input sketch while effectively transferring stylistic attributes from a reference image. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on predefined noise schedules - which often compromise perceptual consistency -- our framework builds on continuous-time diffusion models and introduces SSIMBaD (Sigma Scaling with SSIM-Guided Balanced Diffusion). …

Set Smoothness Unlocks Clarke Hyper-stationarity in Bilevel Optimization
Solving bilevel optimization (BLO) problems to global optimality is generally intractable. A common alternative is to compute a hyper-stationary point -- a stationary point of the hyper-objective function formed by minimizing/maximizing the upper-level function over the lower-level solution set. However, existing approaches either yield weak notions of stationarity or rely on restrictive assumptions to ensure the smoothness of hyper-objective functions. In this paper, we remove these impractica…
