Scalable Neural Video Representation Compression (S-NVRC) introduces a scalable implicit neural representation (INR) video codec that supports fine-grained bitrate and decoding‑complexity scalability from a single embedded bitstream. It uses a coarse‑to‑fine prefix for feature grids and a nested prefix for network layers, enabling a wide range of operating points while maintaining a single encoding. On the UVG dataset, S‑NVRC outperforms SHM 12.4 and multi‑layer VTM‑20.0 by 43.7 % and 5.6 % in BD‑rate, respectively, and offers flexible complexity scalability.

COVER is a new video watermarking method that targets codec compression as its primary design goal. It embeds the watermark payload in the latent space of a frozen generative video autoencoder and recovers it by re‑encoding the received video into the same latent space. Using a differentiable codec surrogate bank, COVER achieves high bit accuracy across multiple codecs while keeping marked videos visually close to the originals.

The paper introduces UniGVC, a unified generative video codec that supports both low‑delay streaming and high‑quality playback from a single bitstream. It offers two decoding modes: UniGVC‑BI, a bidirectional diffusion model with dense attention for quality‑oriented random‑access decoding, and UniGVC‑AR, a windowed autoregressive diffusion model for low‑delay streaming. Both modes share a hierarchical latent codec that produces ultra‑low‑bitrate conditions, enabling the BI model to act as a teacher for distilling the AR model, while a lightweight conditional decoder further reduces streaming latency.

The paper introduces the concept of Information Capacity (IC) to quantify how much bandwidth savings a unit of decoder compute can achieve in generative video compression (GVC). By modeling reconstruction quality as a two‑factor power law in data rate and compute, the authors fit measured DISTS of two GVC decoders with high accuracy and define IC as the negative logarithmic slope along an iso‑quality contour. IC is dimensionless, enabling architecture‑agnostic comparisons and revealing that a 14B decoder trades compute for rate far more efficiently than a 1.3B decoder, with significant variation across datasets.
