Edit‑VAR is a training‑free, inversion‑free framework that uses a pretrained visual autoregressive video model for text‑guided video editing. It encodes the source video into multi‑scale discrete tokens and applies probability‑guided conditional token replacement, attention‑guided token‑wise and scale‑aware modulation, and scale‑decoupled generation to preserve source appearance while enabling precise edits. The method also includes residual‑guided token pruning to reduce inference cost, and experimental results show it outperforms existing training‑free video editing methods in fidelity, source preservation, temporal coherence, and efficiency.

EditaLive! is a new real‑time framework for character video editing in live streaming, built on a pretrained image animation model (Wan‑Animate) that separates appearance from motion. It uses the CharEdit‑50K dataset for reference‑frame editing and video reconstruction, and adapts the model from offline bidirectional to causal streaming generation. A self‑rollout distillation strategy compresses the model into a two‑step sampler, employing fixed RoPE, alignment forcing, and first‑frame preserved sparse attention to reduce appearance drift and achieve low‑latency inference while preserving facial expressions.

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.

Memory-V2V is a memory‑augmented video‑to‑video diffusion framework designed to improve cross‑turn consistency in multi‑turn video editing. It stores previous outputs in an external memory, retrieves relevant edits, and incorporates them via relevance‑aware tokenization and adaptive compression, allowing scalable conditioning without linear computational growth. Experiments on iterative video novel view synthesis and text‑guided long video editing show that Memory‑V2V enhances consistency while preserving visual quality and outperforming strong baselines with modest overhead.

Despite progress in instruction-based video editing, unimodal textual instructions inherently struggle to convey fine-grained textures and complex dynamics. To bridge this perceptual gap, we propose Visual In-context Editing, a new paradigm elevating video editing from textual instructions to multi-modal visual guidance encompassing single image, image pair, and video pair.

CameraEditor is a new framework that transforms camera-controlled image editing into a temporal sequence prediction problem. By using video diffusion models, it incorporates a geometric perception module and dynamic reference routing to create precise visual references through dynamic panorama cropping. The method also inserts intermediate transition frames to handle large perspective shifts, maintaining content identity and spatial coherence, and is evaluated on a dataset of 5,760 instances with a benchmark of 462 test cases, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance.

EditStream is a unified DiT‑based framework that supports a wide range of interactive video tasks—Text‑to‑Video, Image‑to‑Video, Video‑to‑Video, Editing Propagation, Reference‑guided Video Editing, and Camera Pose Change—within a single system. It achieves fast, few‑step autoregressive generation by applying a two‑stage distillation process that combines Velocity Moment Matching with autoregressive unrolling, thereby preserving motion quality and temporal stability. The approach aims to make high‑quality diffusion‑based video models practical for real‑time creative workflows.

RefVideo-6M is a new large-scale reference-guided editing dataset that includes 5 million video editing samples and 1 million image editing samples, each paired with about 6 million visual references. The dataset is constructed to avoid artifacts by using real, artifact‑free videos as targets and filtering input conditions with multiple editing experts, thereby providing reliable supervision. It enables models to learn fine‑grained visual correspondence beyond text‑only instructions and supports the training of a reference‑guided video editing model, Ref‑MoT, which shows improved visual quality, controllability, and reference consistency.
