Controllable video generation remains challenging due to the difficulty of specifying precise multi-object interactions using text prompts or motion-control inputs that primarily constrain pixel movement. In practice, trajectory-based control often requires users to draw accurate tracks for multiple objects, which scales poorly with scene complexity and becomes ambiguous under occlusion or overlap. To enable flexible yet precise multi-subject control, we introduce $\textbf{GraphVid}$, a graph-conditioned image-to-video generation model that enables interactive control through structured interaction graphs. We further curate $\textbf{GraphVid-Bench}$, a large-scale interaction-centric video dataset with structured relational annotations to enable training of interaction-aware video generation models. Despite using substantially less training data and fewer trainable parameters than prior motion-control methods, GraphVid delivers strong controllability and video quality. Compared with Motion-I2V, GraphVid reduces FID by up to 39.9% and FVD by 37.6%, while improving PSNR (9.87=>15.98) and SSIM (0.38=>0.61). Our results highlight the potential of structured semantic interfaces as a powerful paradigm for controllable video generation.

Video editing spans diverse editing paradigms, yet achieving high-quality instruction-guided and subject-guided editing within a single unified framework remains challenging. We introduce EditVid, a training-free framework combining sparse causal memory for local coherence, correspondence-based post-attention token injection for long-range identity preservation, and soft latent blending for edit locality. The same framework supports instruction-guided and reference-guided edits, including style transfer, attribute modification, object insertion, part-level editing, and subject replacement. On FiVE, EditVid achieves 78.16 FiVE-Acc, compared with 58.95 for the strongest evaluated training-free baseline, while obtaining competitive results on IVEBench. A user study further shows a 51.8\% overall preference for EditVid over 7 competing methods.

Video-text models adapted from image-text architectures (e.g., CLIP) frequently exhibit temporal blindness, the inability to perceive fundamental cues like order, direction, and motion dynamics. Standard datasets mask this limitation by enabling models to exploit static spatial shortcuts. To systematically evaluate this, we introduce XTE-Bench, a diagnostic probe revealing that even large-scale video-language models struggle with basic temporal reasoning, indicating that parameter scaling alone is insufficient to resolve this flaw. To address this, we propose Cross-Modal Temporal Edits (XTE), a self-supervised framework that injects precise temporal supervision. By performing synchronized video-text transformations, XTE generates hard temporal negatives without manual annotation. We instantiate this with ViTAL-X, a lightweight model that equips frozen image-text backbones with temporal awareness while preserving their foundational spatial knowledge. Across six temporal benchmarks, ViTAL-X achieves state-of-the-art performance. Utilizing only 0.4B parameters and 1M training clips, ViTAL-X outperforms 7B-parameter models and surpasses baselines trained on 600x more data. These results demonstrate that targeted, high-quality temporal alignment provides a highly efficient alternative to pure scaling.
