arXiv:2608. 10519v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: InfinityStar extends visual autoregressive generation to video through a sequence of image and clip pyramids.
InfinityStar extends visual autoregressive generation to video through a sequence of image and clip pyramids. Its changing scale and cross-clip context, however, leave late-scale attention costly and make sparse patterns reused from diffusion or image VAR models unreliable.

The paper investigates how attention sparsity behaves in autoregressive image generation, finding a distinct diagonal sparsity pattern due to spatial locality of visual tokens. It introduces a diagonal‑aware sparse attention mechanism that skips KV entries along the diagonal within a recent window, achieving up to 3.1× higher throughput and 1.19× lower latency with less than 2% quality loss compared to dense inference.

Recent advancements in MLLM-based long-form video understanding have mitigated inference-time computational cost and limited context lengths by selecting query-relevant frames. However, existing approaches predominantly rely on external proxy scorers and rigid heuristic rules, inevitably suffering from misalignment with the target MLLM's intrinsic evidence and failing to accommodate the non-uniform spatiotemporal information density.
