• Abstract summary: We present a video generation model that reproduces object motion, changes in camera viewpoint, and new content that arises over time. A common failure case is for content to never change due to over-reliance on inductive biases to provide temporal consistency.

• Abstract: We present a video generation model that accurately reproduces object motion, changes in camera viewpoint, and new content that arises over time. Existing video generation methods often fail to produce new content as a function of time while maintaining consistencies expected in real environments, such as plausible dynamics and object persistence. A common failure case is for content to never change due to over-reliance on inductive biases to provide temporal consistency, such as a single latent code that dictates content for the entire video. On the other extreme, without long-term consistency, generated videos may morph unrealistically between different scenes. To address these limitations, we prioritize the time axis by redesigning the temporal latent representation and learning long-term consistency from data by training on longer videos. To this end, we leverage a two-phase training strategy, where we separately train using longer videos at a low resolution and shorter videos at a high resolution. To evaluate the capabilities of our model, we introduce two new benchmark datasets with explicit focus on long-term temporal dynamics.

  This paper investigates a straightforward and training-free approach to extend an existing short video diffusion model for consistent long video generation. We find that directly applying the short video diffusion model to generate long videos can lead to severe video quality degradation. Motivated by this, we propose a novel solution named FreeLong to balance the frequency distribution of long video features during the denoising process.

• Anchored Diffusion for Video Face Reenactment [17.343307538702238]
  We introduce Anchored Diffusion, a novel method for synthesizing relatively long and seamless videos. We train our model on video sequences with random non-uniform temporal spacing and incorporate temporal information via external guidance. During inference, we leverage the transformer architecture to modify the diffusion process, generating a batch of non-uniform sequences anchored to a common frame.

  We propose a new way of self-attention calculation, termed Consistent Self-Attention. To extend our method to long-range video generation, we introduce a novel semantic space temporal motion prediction module. By merging these two novel components, our framework, referred to as StoryDiffusion, can describe a text-based story with consistent images or videos.

• Revisiting Kernel Temporal Segmentation as an Adaptive Tokenizer for Long-form Video Understanding [57.917616284917756]
  Real-world videos are often several minutes long with semantically consistent segments of variable length. A common approach to process long videos is applying a short-form video model over uniformly sampled clips of fixed temporal length. This approach neglects the underlying nature of long videos since fixed-length clips are often redundant or uninformative.

• Transform-Equivariant Consistency Learning for Temporal Sentence Grounding [66.10949751429781]
  We introduce a novel Equivariant Consistency Regulation Learning framework to learn more discriminative representations for each video. Our motivation comes from that the temporal boundary of the query-guided activity should be consistently predicted. In particular, we devise a self-supervised consistency loss module to enhance the completeness and smoothness of the augmented video.

• Video Generation Beyond a Single Clip [76.5306434379088]
  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.
