• Abstract: The rapid progress in artificial intelligence-generated content (AIGC), especially with diffusion models, has significantly advanced development of high-quality video generation. However, current video diffusion models exhibit demanding computational requirements and high peak memory usage, especially for generating longer and higher-resolution videos. These limitations greatly hinder the practical application of video diffusion models on standard hardware platforms. To tackle this issue, we present a novel, training-free framework named Streamlined Inference, which leverages the temporal and spatial properties of video diffusion models. Our approach integrates three core components: Feature Slicer, Operator Grouping, and Step Rehash. Specifically, Feature Slicer effectively partitions input features into sub-features and Operator Grouping processes each sub-feature with a group of consecutive operators, resulting in significant memory reduction without sacrificing the quality or speed. Step Rehash further exploits the similarity between adjacent steps in diffusion, and accelerates inference through skipping unnecessary steps. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach significantly reduces peak memory and computational overhead, making it feasible to generate high-quality videos on a single consumer GPU (e.g., reducing peak memory of AnimateDiff from 42GB to 11GB, featuring faster inference on 2080Ti).

  Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) rely on larger models and heavier attention mechanisms, resulting in slower inference speeds. We introduce a training-free method to accelerate video DiTs, termed Adaptive Caching (AdaCache) We also introduce a Motion Regularization (MoReg) scheme to utilize video information within AdaCache, controlling the compute allocation based on motion content.

  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.

  We build on the common paradigm of transferring large-scale, image--text models to video via shallow temporal fusion. We expose two limitations to the approach: (1) decreased spatial capabilities, likely due to poor video--language alignment in standard video datasets, and (2) higher memory consumption, bottlenecking the number of frames that can be processed.
