Reflection-Guided Dynamics Rectification for Text-to-Image Generation

Fine-grained rectification of existing generations under a limited additional budget remains a key problem in test-time optimization (TTO) for image generation. As for prior approaches, they could identify residual errors, but could not directly ensure that the model acts on the feedback during reasoning. Such errors stem from multiple sources, such as the initial noise or text prompt, and ultimately induce an execution gap of failing to handle potential deviations along the trajectory generating. However, classic models generally cannot remedy this gap. To narrow it, we propose Reflection-Guided Dynamics Rectification (RGDR), which turns reflections on completed outputs into corrective interventions on the process of sampling dynamics at the trajectory level. Specifically, RGDR could impact every sampling step by adapting to instantaneous intervention. Moreover, RGDR generates flexible candidates while adjudicating between them and the reference. As experiments show, rectification from RGDR starts from the existing base trajectory and reflection, and RGDR is substantially more effective than former trajectory exploration. Under matched budgets for additional image generation, RGDR's gain in the cross-model average final checklist score over the reference is 1.51 times that of TIR prompt refinement and 1.81 times that of Dynamic CFG.
