Reviving ConvNeXt for Efficient Convolutional Diffusion Models

Researchers introduce FCDM, a fully convolutional diffusion model based on ConvNeXt architecture that achieves competitive performance with DiT-XL/2 using only 50% of the computational resources. The model demonstrates exceptional training efficiency, requiring 7x fewer training steps and can be trained on just 4 GPUs, reviving convolutional networks as an efficient alternative to Transformer-based diffusion models.

Biological Plausibility and Representational Alignment of Feedback Alignment in Convolutional Networks

Researchers demonstrate that modified feedback alignment (FA) algorithms can train convolutional neural networks while maintaining biological plausibility, with internal representations converging to structures similar to backpropagation despite using fundamentally different weight update mechanisms. This finding suggests that successful learning algorithms may achieve comparable results through different computational paths, bridging biologically plausible alternatives with practical neural network training.
