Making MLLM Latents Matter: Factor-Aware Predictive Learning for Cinematic Video Generation

Songlin Yang, Zhe Wang, Xiaotong Zhao +8

Cinematic video generation requires both temporal inference from limited inputs (i.e., sparse rather than frame-by-frame guidance) and factor-aware control of character, scene, act…

VBVR-Pro: A Scalable and Verifiable Suite for Native Visual Reasoning

Junxiang Xu, Ruisi Wang, Fanyi Pu +49

Native visual reasoning treats visual generation as the medium of reasoning itself: visual states (i.e. images and videos) are not merely inputs to be understood or outputs to be r…
