DeltaS is a query‑agnostic, training‑free method for evicting key‑value cache entries in hybrid video‑language models that combine linear and full attention. It uses the change in the recurrent state of gated‑delta linear attention—called state drift—to decide which video chunks to keep, selecting those that induce larger normalized state changes. In experiments with a fixed memory budget, DeltaS outperforms position‑, attention‑, and key‑value‑based eviction signals, improving performance by 2.1 points on average across six long‑video benchmarks and 5.6 points on the longest benchmark, while adding only 1.9% of the forward‑pass cost.

StreamTTT is a streaming vision-language model that balances real-time perception with long-term memory by writing long-range history into fast weights outside the attention context, while keeping a short sliding key-value cache for recent evidence. The model is trained on both offline long-video QA and a new real-time QA corpus, and it outperforms SimpleStream-4B on OVO-Bench by 1.4 points in real-time perception and 3.7 points in backward tracing. StreamTTT-4B also competes with the larger SimpleStream-8B on the StreamingBench Real-Time Visual Understanding subset.

Modern video diffusion models achieve higher generation quality through scaling, but this also increases inference cost. Although many acceleration methods have been proposed, a central challenge is that the most effective acceleration strategy is highly instance-specific: a recipe that works well for one combination of model, hardware, and inference configuration often does not transfer to another.
Real-time video restoration (VR) for live streams requires high-resolution outputs under strict per-frame latency constraints. Existing one-step diffusion-based VR models remain difficult to deploy on consumer-grade GPUs due to two main bottlenecks: quadratic spatial attention at high resolutions and the latency-memory overhead of large video autoencoders.

Autoregressive video diffusion models provide a natural formulation for streaming and variable-length video generation by conditioning newly generated frames on previously generated content. However, extending these models to minute-level generation remains challenging: the limited KV-cache budget prevents the model from retaining the full history, while repeatedly conditioning on self-generated frames induces a context distribution shift that accumulates over time, leading to visual artifacts, quality degradation, and temporal drift.
RelayVSR introduces a streaming video super‑resolution framework that combines a large generative model, which produces reference latents for sparse keyframes, with a lightweight Dual‑Memory Video Transformer that super‑resolves every frame using these references and low‑resolution input. The method employs Video‑Aware Reference Optimization (VARO), a reinforcement‑learning strategy that optimizes both system‑level video quality and reference‑level keyframe fidelity, outperforming direct joint training. On 1080p video, RelayVSR achieves 29.29 FPS with modest GPU memory usage, significantly faster and more efficient than the FlashVSR‑Tiny baseline.
