Uncertainty DMD: Restoring Diversity in Few-Step Autoregressive Video Distillation

Few-step distillation improves the efficiency of autoregressive (AR) video generation, but often causes diversity collapse: under the same prompt, different noise samples tend to produce highly similar videos with weakened motion dynamics. We analyze this degradation in Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD)-distille...

FutureDuet: Decoupling Observation Access from Future Supervision in World Action Models

World Action Models (WAMs) augment robot action generation with future visual supervision. Existing WAMs commonly fuse main and wrist observations into one visual stream and train both with the same future-video objective, despite their different visual dynamics. A stable main camera reveals scene-level task evolution,...

SIFT: Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning for Physically Plausible Motion in Video Diffusion Models

Recent advances in video diffusion models have greatly improved visual fidelity, yet their generated motions often violate physical plausibility. We observe a common kinematic failure,"motion entanglement", the unintended coupling of independent motion sources, such as camera movement and object motion. We identify tha...
