The paper introduces Relax Forcing, a training‑free memory mechanism for autoregressive video diffusion that structures temporal context into Sink, Tail, and History frames. By selecting History frames with a relaxation criterion, the method reduces error accumulation and attention overhead while preserving motion dynamics. Experiments on VBench‑Long demonstrate that this structured memory improves long‑video generation quality over existing baselines.

arXiv:2607. 20125v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) video diffusion models have become a promising paradigm for long and streaming video synthesis, but the continuously growing Key-Value (KV) cache makes attention the dominant inference cost, especially at high resolution where each frame contributes many tokens.
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.
In-Distribution Forcing for Long Video Generation at Test Time introduces a test‑time framework that aligns KV caching and conditioning with training configurations to prevent out‑of‑distribution key‑value entries during long‑horizon video generation. The core technique, self‑caching, ensures each chunk is cached without attending to prior KV entries, keeping the rolling window exactly in‑distribution. This approach extends short‑horizon autoregressive video diffusion models to minute‑scale generation, outperforming prior methods in mitigating drifting as shown by drift metrics and a user study.
