• Abstract: Autoregressive models have shown superior performance and efficiency in image generation, but remain constrained by high computational costs and prolonged training times in video generation. In this study, we explore methods to accelerate training for autoregressive video generation models through empirical analyses. Our results reveal that while training on fewer video frames significantly reduces training time, it also exacerbates error accumulation and introduces inconsistencies in the generated videos. To address these issues, we propose a Local Optimization (Local Opt.) method, which optimizes tokens within localized windows while leveraging contextual information to reduce error propagation. Inspired by Lipschitz continuity, we propose a Representation Continuity (ReCo) strategy to improve the consistency of generated videos. ReCo utilizes continuity loss to constrain representation changes, improving model robustness and reducing error accumulation. Extensive experiments on class- and text-to-video datasets demonstrate that our approach achieves superior performance to the baseline while halving the training cost without sacrificing quality.

  Real-world video super-resolution (VSR) models are often trained with diverse degradations to improve generalizability. To alleviate the first tradeoff, we propose a degradation scheme that reduces up to 40% of training time without sacrificing performance. To facilitate fair comparisons, we propose the new VideoLQ dataset, which contains a large variety of real-world low-quality video sequences.
