Unlike UNet denoisers, DiTs don't develop geometry-adaptive harmonic bases — attention locality in early layers drives generalization instead. Detailed analysis on the important question of generalization behavior of DiTs is available at dit-generalization.github.io.

A small fraction of LLM parameters — "super weights" — are disproportionately critical to model quality; pruning even one can collapse generation. We introduce a single-forward-pass method to find them and use them to improve low-bit quantization.
