Manifold4D: Denoising on Point Cloud Rendered Manifolds for Video Re-shooting

Manifold4D introduces a new denoising strategy for video re‑shooting that injects a rendered point‑cloud directly into the initial noise manifold, eliminating the need for the render to be an explicit conditioning stream during denoising. This approach allows the network to rely solely on the source video as a visual condition, improving camera‑control accuracy on the DAVIS‑Traj benchmark and Vista4D set, with significant reductions in rotation and translation errors while maintaining video fidelity. User studies confirm enhanced trajectory following and dynamic consistency, especially for large yaw amplitudes and even when the render is corrupted.

4DAnyone: Create Anyone in 4D from a Casual Monocular Video

We present 4DAnyone, a framework for reconstructing 4D humans from an uncalibrated monocular video by generating reconstruction-grade multiview-consistent videos and lifting them into 4D Gaussian Splatting (4DGS). Existing camera-controlled video diffusion models synthesize plausible novel-view videos but fail to maintain consistency when scaled to the tens of target views required for 4DGS reconstruction.

AnyView: Synthesizing Any Novel View in Dynamic Scenes

AnyView is a diffusion-based video generation framework designed for dynamic view synthesis, requiring minimal inductive biases or geometric assumptions. It trains a generalist spatiotemporal implicit representation using diverse data sources—monocular, multi-view static, and multi-view dynamic—to produce zero-shot novel videos from arbitrary camera locations and trajectories. The authors evaluate AnyView on standard benchmarks, introduce a new challenging benchmark called AnyViewBench for extreme dynamic view synthesis, and demonstrate that AnyView outperforms baselines in maintaining realistic, plausible, and spatiotemporally consistent videos across diverse real-world scenarios.

4DGS-Fixer: Generative Sparse-View 4D Gaussian Splatting with Iterative Refinement Guided by Video Diffusion Priors

The paper introduces 4DGS-Fixer, an iterative refinement framework that uses a video diffusion model to enhance sparse-view 4D Gaussian Splatting for dynamic scene synthesis. It first fuses multi-view depth maps into dense point clouds for better geometric initialization, then applies a pretrained video restoration model to refine rendered sequences, providing pseudo-supervision for further refinement. Experiments on a benchmark dataset show the method outperforms existing baselines, achieving nearly a 2 dB PSNR improvement.

LEGO: A Lifting-Free Approach for Exocentric-to-Egocentric Video Generation

The paper introduces LEGO, a lifting‑free method for generating egocentric videos from a single exocentric recording. Instead of reconstructing depth and point clouds, it trains a transformer‑based view synthesizer that directly predicts the egocentric view, providing a probabilistic correspondence map that balances structural alignment with texture averaging. This approach outperforms existing explicit pipelines and generalizes across datasets without retraining.

RoGe: Novel View Synthesis via End-to-End Implicit Reconstruction and Generation

RoGe is a new end‑to‑end framework for novel view synthesis that jointly learns an implicit 3D scene representation and a video diffusion model. It eliminates the need for explicit 3D intermediates by querying the implicit scene with camera rays to produce geometric features that condition the diffusion model. Experiments on DL3DV show that RoGe surpasses reconstruction‑based, generation‑based, and hybrid baselines in image quality and temporal consistency, and ablations confirm the benefits of ray‑queried features and joint training.

Momentum: Persistent Dynamics for Video World Models

Momentum introduces a two-stage pipeline for video world models that uses synchronized multi-camera rigs to represent evolving scenes. The WorldUpdate stage generates shared reference-camera videos as a memory of scene dynamics, while WorldInteract grounds target camera video generation in this memory, ensuring moving objects remain represented outside the field of view. Experiments on CARLA street scenes show a 126.2% improvement in dynamic scene consistency over static image conditioning.
