PERSIST: Persistent-State Discrimination for Shot Boundary Detection

PERSIST redefines shot boundary detection as a task of semantic discrimination, requiring a persistent update of a video’s latent temporal state rather than a transient visual change. It employs a FiLM‑conditioned sinusoidal representation network and a structured discriminator that fuses local change, transient impulse, and return‑to‑trend cues into a single interpretable per‑frame signal. The method achieves comparable recall to leading detectors while significantly reducing false positives from flash, text overlay, and archival artifacts, and it is trained solely on real transitions from ClipShots.

SPLIT: Training-Free AI-Generated and Partially Edited Video Detection via Spatial Patch-Level Incoherence and Temporal Roughness

arXiv:2607. 02886v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying AI-generated video detectors in real-world services demands an ultra-low false positive rate (FPR) on real videos to avoid falsely rejecting authentic content, a regime where standard metrics such as AUROC fail to reflect actual operating behavior.

SNF-Bench: Separating Static Drift from Natural Flow in Long-Horizon Fixed-Camera Video Generation

SNF-Bench is an evaluation framework for long‑horizon fixed‑camera video generation that separates static background fidelity from dynamic flow persistence and drift leakage. It reports these three factors independently, using controlled injections of translation, rotation, scale drift, and progressive freezing to validate each metric’s sensitivity. Auditing public checkpoints shows that whole‑frame motion metrics can mislead, while SNF‑Bench reveals the true trade‑offs between motion quality and background stability.

Steady-Forcing: Balancing Spatial Persistence and Motion Continuity in Long-Horizon Nature Video Diffusion

arXiv:2606. 14732v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive video diffusion models enable streaming generation but often degrade over long rollouts: static scene layouts drift, while mechanisms that improve spatial stability tend to suppress motion, causing natural flows such as water, fire, or smoke to stagnate.

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.

EgoPlay: Event-Triggered Video Editing for Egocentric Streams

We introduce EgoPlay, an event-triggered video-to-video editor for egocentric streams, obtained by fine-tuning a pretrained V2V diffusion transformer on event-conditioned data built primarily from Ego4D. Given a monocular video and an event-triggered prompt of the form "when X happens, do Y," EgoPlay infers whether and when event X occurs, preserves pre-event frames, and applies edit Y only to the post-event continuation.
