arXiv:2607. 27036v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video diffusion-based world models enable long autoregressive video generation for robotics, autonomous driving and simulation tasks, yet sliding-window autoregressive inference suffers from severe error accumulation that degrades frame quality over time.
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.
Autoregressive video diffusion models have emerged as a promising approach for long video generation, achieving strong performance in streaming settings. However, existing methods are restricted to forward temporal generation, whereas practical video creation often requires flexible generation order, e.
arXiv:2606. 25473v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive video diffusion with causal diffusion transformers has emerged as a major paradigm for real-time streaming video generation and action-conditioned interactive world models.
arXiv:2608. 05237v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current few-step autoregressive video diffusion models depend on previous fully denoised clean frames as context for all denoising steps of the current frame.
arXiv:2608. 14706v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Standard autoregressive video generation algorithms based on Diffusion and Flow Matching rely on rigid training objectives and static sampling schedules, limiting inference procedures from adapting to the data.
arXiv:2606. 12987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Action-conditioned world models let an autonomous vehicle predict future camera scenes from its own planned controls, enabling planning and simulation without real-world rollouts, but at compact, trainable scale the futures are ambiguous and the field's standard distortion metrics actively mislead: they reward a blurry regression mean over a realistic prediction.
arXiv:2607. 01962v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the challenging problem of novel view video synthesis from single images or monocular videos.
arXiv:2607. 19919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose Diffusion ReRoll, a diffusion-based framework for robotic sequential prediction that enables revisable denoising over horizons.
We study the challenging problem of novel view video synthesis from single images or monocular videos. Existing methods, which operate under the assumption that pre-trained video models lack native novel view synthesis capability and enforce view alignment via camera conditioning, task-specific fine-tuning, or stepwise hard denoising guidance, often suffer from artifacts and compromised global scene consistency.
arXiv:2606. 05254v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World-action models (WAMs) jointly generate future video and robot actions through iterative diffusion, achieving strong performance on manipulation benchmarks but requiring tens of denoising steps, a cost that precludes real-time control.
