BRACE: Taming Sharp Irregularities via Barycentric Rational Forecasting for Fast Diffusion Transformers Inference
The episode discusses BRACE, a paper that speeds up diffusion transformer inference by replacing unstable derivative-based forecasting with a stable barycentric rational approach. The authors use local sliding windows and adapted Chebyshev weights to predict feature states, achieving significant speedups while maintaining or improving image quality across various models.
