Latent Spatial Memory for Video World Models

The paper introduces latent spatial memory, a 3D cache that stores scene information directly in diffusion latent space, eliminating the need for pixel-space reconstruction. It presents Mirage, a framework that lifts latent tokens into 3D using depth-guided back‑projection and queries the memory via latent‑space warping, achieving significant speed and memory gains. Experiments demonstrate up to 10.57× faster video generation, a 55× reduction in memory usage, and state‑of‑the‑art performance on WorldScore and strong reconstruction on RealEstate10K.

Latent Spatial Memory for Video World Models

Video world models that maintain 3D spatial consistency across generated frames typically rely on explicit point cloud memory constructed in RGB space. This design is both computationally expensive, requiring repeated rendering and VAE encoding, and inherently lossy, as the round trip through pixel space discards rich features of the learned latent representation.

GAE: Learning a Geometry-Native Latent Space for 3D-Consistent World Generation

The paper introduces the Geometry‑Native Autoencoder (GAE), a compact latent space that can be decoded into appearance, depth, camera parameters, and point maps, enabling 3D‑consistent world generation. By reparameterizing a geometry foundation model’s features, GAE replaces traditional appearance‑centric latents and improves visual quality and 3D coherence, achieving significant reductions in FVD and camera‑trajectory error on benchmark datasets. The work demonstrates that a geometry‑native latent space can serve as a shared interface between perception and generation models.

RoGe: Novel View Synthesis via End-to-End Implicit Reconstruction and Generation

RoGe is a new end‑to‑end framework for novel view synthesis that jointly learns an implicit 3D scene representation and a video diffusion model. It eliminates the need for explicit 3D intermediates by querying the implicit scene with camera rays to produce geometric features that condition the diffusion model. Experiments on DL3DV show that RoGe surpasses reconstruction‑based, generation‑based, and hybrid baselines in image quality and temporal consistency, and ablations confirm the benefits of ray‑queried features and joint training.
