arXiv:2607. 14898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-time video generation demands fast decoding as much as fast denoising, yet current latent video diffusion models rely on 3D convolutional decoders that are slow and memory-intensive at high resolutions or for long video.

The paper introduces VoRTeC, a video compression framework that leverages a foundational flow model to encode latent video representations compactly and predict their positions along flow trajectories. By integrating multi‑scale priors and avoiding access to flow‑matching network parameters, VoRTeC achieves one‑step decoding with high perceptual fidelity, while maintaining temporal consistency through tail‑frame reuse and prior caching. Experiments show a 58% reduction in bit consumption compared to prior diffusion‑based methods and a decoding speed increase ranging from 3 to 197 times, reaching 13 FPS at 720p and 32 FPS at 480p.

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.

TT-VidT is a video pretraining method that decouples the temporal axis by combining a per‑frame ViT-B/16 spatial encoder with a compact Temporal Transfer Layer trained via Diff Compression. The authors conduct a systematic 24‑configuration study to isolate architecture, objective, and decoder effects, showing that the full TT-VidT design yields the strongest motion‑sensitive representations. In downstream fine‑tuning, TT‑VidT outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines on Jester, Something‑Something V2, ARID, and Diving48 while using significantly fewer encoder FLOPs.

LRConv-NeRV introduces low‑rank separable convolutions into the NeRV neural video decoder, replacing selected dense 3x3 layers to reduce computational load and memory usage. By applying low‑rank factorization progressively from the largest to earlier decoder stages, the method offers controllable trade‑offs between reconstruction quality and efficiency. Experiments show that applying LRConv only to the final decoder stage cuts decoder complexity by 68% and model size by 9.3% with negligible quality loss, while INT8 quantization preserves performance close to the dense baseline.
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.
Large generative models can recover realistic detail in real-world video super-resolution (VSR), but processing an entire video with them is computationally expensive. In this work, we present RelayVS...
Latent video generation relies on autoencoders to define a compact space in which generative models operate. Although video autoencoder architectures have evolved substantially, their latent spaces are still optimized primarily for pixel-level reconstruction and provide limited high-level semantic organization.
arXiv:2606. 05981v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Aggressive distillation of the diffusion U-Net inverts the per-frame bottleneck of real-time text-to-image pipelines: once the denoiser is a 4-step or 1-step distilled student, the text encoder becomes the critical path.
