Edit‑VAR is a training‑free, inversion‑free framework that uses a pretrained visual autoregressive video model for text‑guided video editing. It encodes the source video into multi‑scale discrete tokens and applies probability‑guided conditional token replacement, attention‑guided token‑wise and scale‑aware modulation, and scale‑decoupled generation to preserve source appearance while enabling precise edits. The method also includes residual‑guided token pruning to reduce inference cost, and experimental results show it outperforms existing training‑free video editing methods in fidelity, source preservation, temporal coherence, and efficiency.

EditStream is a unified DiT‑based framework that supports a wide range of interactive video tasks—Text‑to‑Video, Image‑to‑Video, Video‑to‑Video, Editing Propagation, Reference‑guided Video Editing, and Camera Pose Change—within a single system. It achieves fast, few‑step autoregressive generation by applying a two‑stage distillation process that combines Velocity Moment Matching with autoregressive unrolling, thereby preserving motion quality and temporal stability. The approach aims to make high‑quality diffusion‑based video models practical for real‑time creative workflows.

VINCIE‑NExT is a unified framework that transfers image editing capabilities to video editing by using in‑context visual demonstrations. It decomposes video editing into a chain of sub‑tasks (Video → Image → Image → Video), routing editing intent through the image domain and enabling joint training from heterogeneous image and video data under a single diffusion objective. The method introduces a novel position encoding to link image demonstrations and video frames, allowing pixel‑faithful appearance propagation, and supports test‑time scaling through progressive diffusion stages.

Real-time video editing requires low-latency causal generation with bounded computational resources while preserving source fidelity and long-term temporal consistency. We present JoyAI-Video-Edit, a 16B-parameter autoregressive diffusion framework for real-time, open-ended video editing without access to future frames or a predefined video duration.

Existing instruction-based video editing datasets commonly focus on single-task appearance editing, failing to meet the complex creative demands of real-world scenarios. To bridge this gap, we present Goku, a large-scale dataset featuring 2 million high-quality, instruction-aligned video editing pairs, which is the first to extend task boundaries from basic appearance editing to multi-task and structural manipulations(e.
The paper introduces Anchor-based Video Editing (AVE), a two-stage framework that converts a powerful image editor into a video editor by first editing keyframes and then propagating those edits across time using a motion-guided image-to-video diffusion model. AVE treats edited keyframes as fixed anchors, leveraging the strengths of modern image editors while avoiding costly end-to-end video training. Experiments on IVEBench and VIE-Bench demonstrate strong performance in instruction following, temporal consistency, and content fidelity, and ablations show that video quality correlates with the underlying image editor’s performance.
