The paper introduces GVCC, a zero‑shot video compression framework that uses a pretrained generative video model as the decoder. GVCC transforms deterministic rectified‑flow samplers into stochastic processes, enabling the transmission of compressed information through per‑step stochastic innovations. The authors evaluate three GVCC variants—Text‑to‑Video, Image‑to‑Video, and First‑Last‑Frame‑to‑Video—on the UVG dataset, reporting perceptual, fidelity, and temporal metrics without claiming global rate‑distortion gains.

LeVJEPA is a video encoder that eliminates the need for architectural asymmetries, exponential-moving-average target encoders, stop-gradients, and capacity-limited predictors used in prior self‑supervised methods. It trains a single encoder with an invariance loss over global and local views, regularized by SIGReg to prevent collapse, and achieves strong performance with far less pretraining compute. The approach also allows block‑causal attention, making temporal ordering a property of the encoder itself, and matches or surpasses state‑of‑the‑art baselines on both appearance‑centric and motion‑centric benchmarks.

arXiv:2606. 11670v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Subject-preserving video generation is not solved by frontal-face similarity alone: a generated person must remain recognizable across motion, large viewpoint changes, expression shifts, occlusion, scale variation, and conflicts among text, first-frame, and identity references.

The paper presents a zero‑shot framework for high‑throughput generative video super‑resolution (VSR) that operates on a single high‑end consumer GPU without retraining. It decouples spatial upscaling, handled by a time‑distilled one‑step diffusion backbone, from temporal stabilization, achieved with a lightweight pretrained flow‑based interpolator. A resolution‑aware hybrid attention scheme replaces high‑resolution global attention with neighborhood attention to improve scalability, achieving up to ~32 FPS at 720p and a 44% speedup at 4K on an NVIDIA RTX 4090, while maintaining competitive perceptual quality and temporal consistency on standard VSR benchmarks.

OmniVBench introduces a comprehensive benchmark and a large-scale dataset for omni reference-to-video (R2V) generation, addressing gaps in existing evaluations that focus only on limited reference types and holistic consistency. The benchmark expands evaluation across 7 task families and 18 fine-grained tasks, covering content, motion, style, structure, narrative, and multi-reference settings, and employs a factor‑grounded evaluation with 12,172 checklist items to assess preservation, disentanglement, and routing of reference factors. The accompanying Omni‑R2V Dataset provides 340K training samples derived from professional video footage, along with task‑specific pipelines for scalable data construction, enabling broader research and revealing performance gaps in current R2V models.

Avatar‑Forever introduces a decoupled parallel training framework that separates efficient generation from long‑horizon robustness, allowing each capability to be trained independently. The method employs full‑parameter distillation for high‑quality generation and a lightweight long‑horizon adapter trained via Recovery‑oriented Rollout Training (RRT) to mitigate autoregressive errors. Additionally, a ForeverCache feature‑caching mechanism reduces redundant computation during streaming inference, enabling real‑time, high‑resolution avatar generation at 27.2 FPS on a single H100 GPU.
