Golden Anchor for Video Generation

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces Golden Anchor Learning (GAL), a framework that optimizes text-to-image (T2I) generators using feedback from downstream image‑to‑video (I2V) models to produce ‘golden anchors’ that improve video quality. Experiments show that GAL consistently raises VBench scores by 2.97%–8.46% and enhances motion quality across four I2V models, even when trained only on HunyuanVideo‑1.5 renders.

FilmBench: A Film-Grade Benchmark for Cinematic Video Generation

Progress in video generation keeps narrowing the visual gap between AI-generated and professionally produced footage, yet most benchmarks still draw prompts from web sources or LLM templates and score them with untrained, generic multimodal models. More fundamentally, their evaluation taxonomies remain rudimentary (overall visual quality, coarse text alignment and temporal smoothness) rather than the professional Cinematic Language criteria by which films are actually made and judged, so they assess basic video plausibility rather than film-grade craft.

VGA-BenchV2: An Expanded Unified Benchmark and Multi-Model Framework for Evaluating Video Aesthetics and Generation Quality

VGA‑BenchV2 is an expanded, human‑aligned benchmark and optimization framework that jointly evaluates video generation quality and aesthetic value. It builds on the original VGA‑Bench taxonomy, adding 52 sub‑dimensions and 1,016 curated prompts to generate over 60,000 videos from 12 mainstream models. The benchmark significantly enlarges human supervision with 36,000 task‑level annotations and introduces a hybrid evaluator (VAQA‑Net, VTag‑Net, VGQA‑Net) that aligns well with human judgments and can be used as a reward model for reinforcement‑learning fine‑tuning.

Transforming Image Editors into Video Editors

The paper introduces Anchor-based Video Editing (AVE), a two-stage framework that converts a powerful image editor into a video editor by first editing keyframes and then propagating those edits across time using a motion-guided image-to-video diffusion model. AVE treats edited keyframes as fixed anchors, leveraging the strengths of modern image editors while avoiding costly end-to-end video training. Experiments on IVEBench and VIE-Bench demonstrate strong performance in instruction following, temporal consistency, and content fidelity, and ablations show that video quality correlates with the underlying image editor’s performance.
