arXiv:2606.31026v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose OTCache, a training-free framework for accelerating diffusion sampling via caching schedule prediction. Existing graph-based caching methods reduce redundant computation by optimizing shortest-path objectives, but rely on an additive independence assumption, which often breaks down in the low NFE regime. To address this issue, OTCache models caching schedules across inference budgets as a smooth evolution in policy space, inspired by Optimal Transport (OT). The framework consists of three stages: (1) obtaining a high-fidelity \textbf{r
