• Abstract summary: We focus on the problem of generating videos from latent noise vectors, without any reference input frames. We develop a novel approach that jointly optimize the input latent space, the weights of a recurrent neural network and a generator through non-adversarial learning. Our approach generates superior quality videos compared to the existing state-of-the-art methods.

• Abstract: Most of the existing works in video synthesis focus on generating videos using adversarial learning. Despite their success, these methods often require input reference frame or fail to generate diverse videos from the given data distribution, with little to no uniformity in the quality of videos that can be generated. Different from these methods, we focus on the problem of generating videos from latent noise vectors, without any reference input frames. To this end, we develop a novel approach that jointly optimizes the input latent space, the weights of a recurrent neural network and a generator through non-adversarial learning. Optimizing for the input latent space along with the network weights allows us to generate videos in a controlled environment, i.e., we can faithfully generate all videos the model has seen during the learning process as well as new unseen videos. Extensive experiments on three challenging and diverse datasets well demonstrate that our approach generates superior quality videos compared to the existing state-of-the-art methods.

  We propose a framework called MotionPrompt that guides the video generation process via optical flow. We optimize learnable token embeddings during reverse sampling steps by using gradients from a trained discriminator applied to random frame pairs. This approach allows our method to generate visually coherent video sequences that closely reflect natural motion dynamics, without compromising the fidelity of the generated content.

  We propose RL-V2V-GAN, a new deep neural network approach for conditional conditional-to-video synthesis. While preserving the style of the source video domain, our approach aims to learn a gradient mapping from a source video domain to a target video domain. Our experiments show that RL-V2V-GAN can produce temporally coherent video results.

  Video generation models can only generate video clips that are relatively short compared with the length of real videos. To generate long videos covering diverse content and multiple events, we propose to use additional guidance to control the video generation process. The proposed approach is complementary to existing efforts on video generation, which focus on generating realistic video within a fixed time window.

  We introduce a non-parametric approach for infinite video texture synthesis using a representation learned via contrastive learning. We take inspiration from Video Textures, which showed that plausible new videos could be generated from a single one by stitching its frames together in a novel yet consistent order. Our model outperforms baselines on human perceptual scores, can handle a diverse range of input videos, and can combine semantic and audio-visual cues in order to synthesize videos that synchronize well with an audio signal.
