SCOPE: Subspace Clustering with Online Per-Head Top-K Estimation for Sparse Video Attention

Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) incur quadratic self-attention cost over spatiotemporal tokens. Existing training-free sparse attention methods often construct sparse masks from block-level or cluster-level proxy scores, which can obscure fine-grained differences among keys and miss high contribution keys under aggressive sparsity.

ClusterAttention: A training-free speedup of bidirectional attention

ClusterAttention is a training‑free technique that speeds up bidirectional attention by recursively clustering keys and queries into fixed‑size, power‑of‑two blocks, enabling block‑sparse attention to match dense attention latency on GPUs. The method derives error bounds for sparse attention, showing tighter clusters can reduce error when compensated via centroids, and demonstrates significant speedups—up to six‑fold on large tabular data and 1.8× on video generation—while preserving over 99% of dense accuracy.

Video DeltaNet: A Video-Native Hybrid Attention for Livestream Video Generation

Video DeltaNet (VDN) introduces a hybrid attention mechanism for livestream video generation, combining local Softmax attention with a bidirectional linear memory branch called Video Delta Attention (VDA). VDA updates memory once per frame, integrating spatial tokens, while separate output projections and learnable gates balance the two branches. Applied to MiniMax H3, VDN achieves a 14.5× speedup over the dense baseline, completing 14.3‑second, 768p video denoising in 6.70 seconds on eight NVIDIA B200 GPUs.

Video DeltaNet: A Video-Native Hybrid Attention for Livestream Video Generation

Video DeltaNet (VDN) introduces a hybrid attention mechanism for video diffusion models, combining local Softmax attention with a bidirectional linear memory branch called Video Delta Attention (VDA). The design updates memory once per frame, uses separate output projections and learnable gates to balance the two branches, and employs a staged teacher‑alignment recipe to integrate the new pathway into pretrained models. When applied to MiniMax H3, VDN achieves a 14.5× speedup, completing 14.3‑second, 768p video denoising in 6.70 seconds on eight NVIDIA B200 GPUs compared to the 50‑step dense baseline.
