摘要
Transformers rely on explicit positional encoding to model structure in data. WhileRotary Position Embedding (RoPE) excels in 1D domains, its application to image generation reveals significant limitations such as fine-grained spatial relationmodeling, color cues, and object counting. This paper identifies key limitationsof standard multi-dimensional RoPE--rigid frequency allocation, axis-wise independence, and uniform head treatment--in capturing the complex structural biasesrequired for fine-grained image generation. We propose HARoPE, a head-wiseadaptive extension that inserts a learnable linear transformation parameterized viasingular value decomposition (SVD) before the rotary mapping. This lightweightmodification enables dynamic frequency reallocation, semantic alignment of rotaryplanes, and head-specific positional receptive fields while rigorously preservingRoPE's relative-position property. Extensive experiments on class-conditional ImageNet and text-to-image generation (Flux and MMDiT) demonstrate that HARoPEconsistently improves performance over strong RoPE baselines and other extensions. The method serves as an effective drop-in replacement, offering a principledand adaptable solution for enhancing positional awareness in transformer-basedimage generative models.
