ContextAnyone: Context-Aware Diffusion for Character-Consistent Text-to-Video Generation

ContextAnyone is a context‑aware diffusion framework that treats a reference image as an explicitly preserved appearance anchor rather than a simple conditioning signal. By jointly reconstructing the reference image and generating the target video within a shared diffusion transformer, it provides direct supervision for maintaining identity and fine‑grained appearance throughout denoising. The method introduces asymmetric information flow and Gap‑RoPE positional representations to keep the reference stable while allowing selective access by video tokens, and demonstrates improved identity and appearance consistency on an OpenVid‑HD benchmark.

Engram-E2VID: Reference-Based Event-to-Video Reconstruction via Generative Activation of Appearance Engrams

arXiv:2608. 05728v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reference-based event-to-video reconstruction aims to recover target RGB frames from a reference frame and the event stream captured over the reference-to-target interval.

LiveVVT: High-Fidelity Video Virtual Try-On in Real Time

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.

LiveVVT: High-Fidelity Video Virtual Try-On in Real Time

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.

MilliVid: Hierarchical Latents for Long-Range Consistency in Video Generation

arXiv:2606. 09056v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video generative models have become increasingly powerful, but long-range consistency remains challenging to achieve because even a few dozen frames require impractically long transformer sequence lengths.

Fre-Res: Frequency-Residual Video Token Compression for Efficient Video MLLMs

arXiv:2605. 16366v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Video MLLMs face a persistent tension between spatial fidelity and temporal coverage: preserving fine-grained visual details requires many spatial tokens, while capturing short-lived events requires dense temporal sampling.
