arXiv:2608. 12032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video diffusion transformers are costly to sample: every denoising step applies self-attention over a long 3D token sequence, a quadratic cost that dominates as resolution and duration grow.
arXiv:2601. 11641v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have achieved notable progress in video generation, this long-sequence generation task remains constrained by the quadratic complexity inherent to self-attention mechanisms, creating significant barriers to practical deployment.
arXiv:2609.23153v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video diffusion transformers are expensive because attention dominates long spatiotemporal token sequences. We identify the \emph{high-sparsity trap}:...

arXiv:2602. 01801v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive video diffusion models enable streaming generation, opening the door to long-form synthesis, video world models, and interactive neural game engines.
arXiv:2607. 03012v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video Diffusion Transformers (VDiTs) have demonstrated significant capabilities in high-fidelity video generation.
InfinityStar extends visual autoregressive generation to video through a sequence of image and clip pyramids. Its changing scale and cross-clip context, however, leave late-scale attention costly and make sparse patterns reused from diffusion or image VAR models unreliable.
arXiv:2403. 07711v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given the remarkable achievements in image generation through diffusion models, the research community has shown increasing interest in extending these models to video generation.
arXiv:2605. 14513v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sparse attention accelerates video diffusion by allowing each attention head to focus on only a small subset of interactions.
The paper investigates how attention sparsity behaves in autoregressive image generation, finding a distinct diagonal sparsity pattern due to spatial locality of visual tokens. It introduces a diagonal‑aware sparse attention mechanism that skips KV entries along the diagonal within a recent window, achieving up to 3.1× higher throughput and 1.19× lower latency with less than 2% quality loss compared to dense inference.
