arXiv:2601. 09881v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large video diffusion and flow models have achieved remarkable success in high-quality video generation, but their use in real-time interactive applications remains limited due to their inefficient multi-step sampling process.
ViRDM is a new post‑training method for few‑step causal video generation that eliminates the need for a large teacher model and an online critic. By applying representation distribution matching (RDM) with a precomputed target distribution, a lightweight VAE decoder, and staged vector–Jacobian products, ViRDM overcomes memory, optimization, and temporal dynamics challenges. The approach reduces GPU memory usage and training time, achieving state‑of‑the‑art VBench performance with only 20 generator updates and 16 A100 GPU‑hours.
LiveVVT introduces a rolling streaming diffusion framework for video virtual try‑on that maintains high visual fidelity while enabling real‑time performance. By confining bidirectional spatio‑temporal modeling to a fixed‑size window and using bounded temporal and global appearance memories, it emits clean video chunks with low latency. A progressive distillation pipeline further refines the model, achieving superior quality with 26× lower latency and 11× higher throughput compared to prior methods.
LiveVVT introduces a rolling streaming diffusion framework for video virtual try‑on that maintains high visual fidelity while enabling real‑time performance. It preserves bounded bidirectional modeling within a fixed‑size window, emits clean video chunks iteratively, and uses two memory modules—a bounded temporal memory and a persistent global appearance memory—to sustain long‑term consistency. A progressive distillation process further aligns teacher‑based bidirectional learning with causal few‑step inference, resulting in superior generation quality with 26× lower latency and 11× higher throughput compared to comparable models.
We propose OPSD-V, an on-policy self-distillation paradigm for post-training few-step autoregressive (AR) video diffusion models. Existing few-step AR video generators can produce long videos with low latency, but still suffer from error accumulation and weakened motion dynamics during long autoregressive rollout.

Parametric Trajectory Distillation (PTD) is a new method for few-step video generation that allows a student model to learn teacher trajectory segments as polynomials, adapting curvature to the student’s predictive capacity. PTD improves dynamic quality and naturalness on the Wan2.1-14B model, outperforming the previous best trajectory-only method, PDD, and also enhances diversity and naturalness on the 33B MiniMax-H3 model compared to LightX2V Turbo. Human preference studies show PTD receiving 55.1% and 63.4% preference shares over PDD and LightX2V Turbo respectively.
The paper introduces TACD, a Terminal‑Amplification‑Controlled Distillation method that trains efficient text‑to‑motion generators using on‑policy flow distillation from pretrained teachers, without requiring real‑motion data. TACD addresses a failure mode where velocity matching over‑weights errors near the denoising endpoint by tying the latest teacher query to the student’s step size, thereby bounding loss weights in clean‑motion space. Experiments on HumanML3D, KIT‑ML, HY‑Motion, and Kimodo show that TACD improves few‑step generation quality, reduces FID scores, and achieves significant speedups and memory savings compared to teacher models.
