SenseNova-U1.5 native unified multimodal architecture

https://huggingface.co/sensenova/SenseNova-U1.5-8B-MoT#overviewOverview

SenseNova-U1.5-8B-MoTis our latest native unified multimodal checkpoint for more accurate, consistent, reliable, and aesthetically compelling visual creation. Built onNEO-unify, it strengthens the patchify layers, data quality and distribution, task formulation, prompt enhancement, and post-training pipeline.

The official release focuses on six user-visible improvements:

  • **Higher-quality image generation:**improved composition and color harmony, with more realistic material rendering, natural lighting, stronger visual fidelity, and finer local details.
  • **Better text rendering and infographic generation:**more legible Chinese and English text, with clearer information hierarchy in posters, infographics, brand assets, and other text-dense designs.
  • **More efficient native 4K generation:**more coherent global structure, color harmony, and stable high-resolution output with improved generation efficiency.
  • **More reliable native image editing:**stronger preservation of subject identity and unedited content across local, text, multi-reference, insertion, and replacement edits.
  • **Stronger complex-instruction following:**more consistent execution of object counts, spatial relationships, layouts, styles, and multiple constraints within a single request.
  • **More precise visual control:**more accurate region- and object-level control through bounding boxes, visual markers, and single- or multi-image references.

The reference inference implementation is available in theSenseNova-U1 GitHub repository.

https://huggingface.co/sensenova/SenseNova-U1.5-8B-MoT#installationInstallation

git clone https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-U1.git
cd SenseNova-U1
uv sync
source .venv/bin/activate

The upstream environment uses Python 3.11, PyTorch 2.8, and CUDA 12.8. For other CUDA versions and optional FlashAttention configurations, see theinstallation guide.

Direct natural-language prompts work well for clear tasks with few constraints. For complex generation or editing, use prompt enhancement when additional planning is needed and explicitly specify what should remain unchanged.

See the**SenseNova-U1.5 Cookbook**for setup instructions and optional Image PE, Caption-to-Prompt, and Editing PE recipes.

The official release improves upon the Preview, though challenges remain in:

  • **Over-emphasized details or colors:**some prompts may produce excessive high-frequency detail or oversaturated colors, which can often be mitigated by loweringcfg\_scale.
  • **Dense text errors:**dense, lengthy, small, or mixed Chinese-English text may contain errors.
  • **Constrained layouts:**exact counts, alignment, or hierarchy may be imperfect in highly constrained layouts.
  • **Unstable human details:**small faces, hands, limbs, and fine-grained object structures may remain unstable.
  • **Complex editing drift:**broad, multi-turn, or multi-reference edits may drift, especially when many regions must be preserved simultaneously.
