arXiv:2511.17089v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Spanning Tree Autoregressive (STAR) modeling, which can incorporate prior knowledge of images, such as center bias and locality, to maintain sampling performance while also providing sufficiently flexible sequence orders to accommodate image editing at inference time. Approaches that expose conventional autoregressive (AR) models in visual generation to arbitrary sequence orders via random permutation suffer from degraded sampling performance or compromise the flexibility in sequence order choice at inference time. Instead, S
