LayerRecall: A State-Conditioned Memory Router for Long-Horizon Consistency in Video Generation

LayerRecall is a memory router for autoregressive video diffusion that selectively retrieves and injects historical key/value states into specific layers of the model, based on the current context. It addresses the problem that existing memory mechanisms expose nonlocal history but do not guarantee effective use, by recognizing that different layers prefer current, recent, or distant context. The method, combined with Cross‑Horizon Prediction Matching, achieves state‑of‑the‑art long‑range consistency on MemoBench and MovieBench while maintaining local continuity and incurring negligible inference overhead.

Recency Forcing: Bridging the Long-Horizon Gap in Autoregressive Video Generation

The paper introduces Recency Forcing, a technique that addresses the long‑horizon degradation in autoregressive video generation caused by KV eviction mismatch. By applying a timestep‑dependent bias—Temporal Response Bias—derived from a positional response measure, the method reduces the influence of distant frames during inference without altering context length or training objectives. An exact reformulation, Biased Attention Reparameterization, enables this bias to be applied as a standard FlashAttention call with zero overhead, achieving state‑of‑the‑art long‑horizon generation quality on VBench datasets.

LongVU-TTT: Causal Test-Time Training for Visual Resampling in Long Video Understanding

LongVU‑TTT is a causal test‑time training method for long‑video multimodal large language models that inserts a convolutional resampler with fast‑weight updates between the vision encoder and the LLM. The fast weights adapt per video and contextualize frame features before compression, while a hybrid selector keeps explicit visual evidence for downstream reasoning. Experiments show that TTT‑Conv outperforms TTT‑MLP and bidirectional Mamba2 on MLVU, and beats attention‑ and fixed‑state recurrent resamplers on three benchmarks, achieving competitive results on five video‑understanding tasks after reducing 512 frames to 128 LLM frames.

Event-Driven Refresh and Recurrence Memory to Reduce Stale Grounding in Referring Video Object Segmentation

The paper introduces Event-Driven Refresh + Recurrence Memory (EDRRM) to improve Referring Video Object Segmentation (RVOS). EDRRM selectively re-invokes the Sa2VA model at stable change points, using an EMA‑smoothed event score from tracking cues and a recurrence memory that retrieves anchor frames via CLIP similarity. Experiments on Ref‑DAVIS17, MeViS, and ReVOS show that EDRRM maintains or surpasses J&F scores while reducing refresh calls and false‑positive failures, with modest overhead compared to Sa2VA inference.

GVCC: Zero-Shot Video Compression via Codebook-Driven Stochastic Rectified Flow

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.
