TIE: Time Interval Encoding for Video Generation over Events
Zhilei Shu, Shangwen Zhu, Zihang Liang +10
Director-style prompting, robotic action prediction, and interactive video agents demand temporal grounding over concurrent events -- a regime in which 68% of general clips and ove…
Incantation: Natural Language as the Action Interface for Multi-Entity Video World Models
Shangwen Zhu, Qianyu Peng, Zhao Pu +12
Modern interactive video world models have achieved impressive visual fidelity, yet lack fine-grained multi-entity control and cross-entity, cross-world generalization. We trace th…
AnyView: Synthesizing Any Novel View in Dynamic Scenes
Basile Van Hoorick, Dian Chen, Shun Iwase +7
Modern generative video models excel at producing convincing, high-quality outputs, but struggle to maintain multi-view and spatiotemporal consistency in highly dynamic real-world…
Addressing the ID-Matching Challenge in Long Video Captioning
Zhantao Yang, Huangji Wang, Ruili Feng +6
Generating captions for long and complex videos is both critical and challenging, with significant implications for the growing fields of text-to-video generation and multi-modal u…
Towards Interpretable Visual Decoding with Attention to Brain Representations
Pinyuan Feng, Hossein Adeli, Wenxuan Guo +3
Recent work has demonstrated that complex visual stimuli can be decoded from human brain activity using deep generative models, offering new ways to probe how the brain represents…
MAMBO-G: Magnitude-Aware Mitigation for Boosted Guidance
Shangwen Zhu, Qianyu Peng, Zhilei Shu +9
High-fidelity text-to-image and text-to-video generation typically relies on Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG), but achieving optimal results often demands computationally expensive s…
Instability in Diffusion ODEs: An Explanation for Inaccurate Image Reconstruction
Han Zhang, Jinghong Mao, Shangwen Zhu +6
Diffusion reconstruction plays a critical role in various applications such as image editing, restoration, and style transfer. In theory, the reconstruction should be simple - it j…
Accelerating Diffusion Sampling via Exploiting Local Transition Coherence
Shangwen Zhu, Han Zhang, Zhantao Yang +4
Text-based diffusion models have made significant breakthroughs in generating high-quality images and videos from textual descriptions. However, the lengthy sampling time of the de…
BACON: Improving Clarity of Image Captions via Bag-of-Concept Graphs
Zhantao Yang, Ruili Feng, Keyu Yan +13
Advancements in large Vision-Language Models have brought precise, accurate image captioning, vital for advancing multi-modal image understanding and processing. Yet these captions…
