arXiv:2610. 11746v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-time video super-resolution requires high spatio-temporal fidelity under strict latency constraints, challenging diffusion models due to their iterative sampling cost and limited temporal coordination.

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.

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.

ActDiff-VC is a diffusion-based video compression framework designed for ultra‑low‑bitrate scenarios. It partitions videos into variable‑length segments, transmits keyframes only when necessary, and encodes temporal dynamics with a compact set of tracked point trajectories. Conditioned on these sparse signals, a conditional diffusion decoder reconstructs the remaining frames, achieving significant bitrate reductions and perceptual quality gains compared to strong learned codecs.

FastVR is a streaming video restoration framework that uses a one‑step diffusion model to achieve strong restoration quality and temporal consistency while processing 1080p video at 11 FPS on a single H20 GPU. It addresses efficiency bottlenecks by combining a lightweight VAE with chunk‑wise causal attention, and improves inference speed and restoration quality through velocity consistency regularization and continuous trajectory learning during training. Experiments demonstrate that FastVR outperforms diffusion baselines in efficiency and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on both synthetic and real‑world benchmarks.

arXiv:2512. 04390v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Joint video super-resolution and deblurring (VSRDB) requires both efficient long-range temporal modeling and robustness to frame-wise exposure-duration variation, which changes the extent of motion blur across video frames.

Diffusion-based video restoration recovers realistic details, but its practical deployment is limited by two efficiency bottlenecks: costly VAE encoding and decoding, and the quadratic cost of full se...
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.

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.

The paper introduces UniGVC, a unified generative video codec that supports both low‑delay streaming and high‑quality playback from a single bitstream. It offers two decoding modes: UniGVC‑BI, a bidirectional diffusion model with dense attention for quality‑oriented random‑access decoding, and UniGVC‑AR, a windowed autoregressive diffusion model for low‑delay streaming. Both modes share a hierarchical latent codec that produces ultra‑low‑bitrate conditions, enabling the BI model to act as a teacher for distilling the AR model, while a lightweight conditional decoder further reduces streaming latency.

FilterFusion is a lightweight video denoising framework that blends temporally-aware learned features with a small bank of classical denoising filters. It uses a low-cost guidance signal to adaptively mix filter responses at the original resolution, achieving high quality on real sensor noise datasets while keeping the model to only 109K parameters. The approach delivers real‑time performance (55.9 FPS on a single CPU thread) and outperforms lightweight CNN baselines by a large margin in both speed and efficiency.
