Our core observation is that a lightweight model, when empowered by synergistic architecture design and data-centric training strategies, can achieve comprehensive capabilities competitive with or even surpassing much larger counterparts. To overcome the limitations of lightweight models in semantic understanding and fine-grained control, we introduce Stacked Channel Bridging (SCB), a deep alignment framework that extracts hierarchical features from multiple VLM layers and fuses them with learnable ``think tokens'' to provide the generative backbone with structured, reasoning-rich guidance. We further design a data-centric training strategy spanning three progressive stages: (1) Alignment Pre-training on large-scale image-text pairs and editing triplets to synchronize VLM and DiT representations, (2) Joint Supervised Fine-tuning on a high-quality mixture of generation, editing, and reasoning tasks to foster omni-capabilities, and (3) Reinforcement Learning with MR-GRPO, which leverages a mixture of reward functions and supervision signals, resulting in substantial gains in generation quality and alignment with human preferences, while maintaining stable training progress and avoiding visual artifacts.

To use the DeepGen checkpoints, please merge the sharded model files first. We release Pre-traning, Supervised Fine-Tuning and Reinforcement Learning checkpoints.

if you want only final model state please use model.pt directly , it is same as MR-GDPO_final.pt

the Pretrain├──iter_200000.pth and SFT├──iter_400000.pth can be loaded for continuous training
