Abstract
Ultra-high-resolution text-to-image generation is increasingly vital for applications requiring fine-grained textures and global structural fidelity, yet state-of-the-art text-to-image diffusion models such as FLUX and SD3 remain confined to sub 2MP (< ) resolutions due to the quadratic complexity of attention mechanisms and the scarcity of high-quality high-resolution training data. We present UltraImageGen, a novel framework that introduces hierarchical local attention with low-resolution global guidance, enabling efficient, scalable, and semantically coherent image synthesis at ultra-high resolutions. Specifically, high-resolution latents are divided into hardware aligned fixed-size local windows to reduce attention complexity from quadratic to near-linear, while a low-resolution latent equipped with scaled positional embeddings injects global semantics as an anchor. A lightweight LoRA adaptation bridges global and local pathways during denoising, ensuring consistency across structure and detail. To maximize inference efficiency and achieve scalable ultra-high-resolution generation, we repermute token sequence in window-first order, so that the GPU-friendly dense local blocks in attention calculation equals to the fixed-size local window in 2D regardless of resolution. Together ourwork reliably scales the pretrained model to resolutions higher than with more than speed up and significantly lower memory usage. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ourwork achieves superior quality while maintaining computational efficiency, establishing a practical paradigm for advancing ultra-high-resolution image generation.
