Core Concepts
Enhancing temporal dynamics in video generation through the innovative Dysen-VDM module.
Abstract
The content discusses the Dysen-VDM module designed to improve temporal dynamics understanding in text-to-video synthesis. It introduces three key steps: action planning, event-to-DSG conversion, and scene imagination. The system is evaluated on popular T2V datasets, outperforming existing methods significantly. Experiments show superior performance in scenarios with complex actions.
Introduction
Text-to-video synthesis advancements.
Emergence of diffusion models (DMs) for T2V.
Challenges in Existing Models
Common issues like lower frame resolution and unsmooth video transitions.
Proposed Solution: Dysen-VDM
Three-step process: action planning, DSG conversion, scene enrichment.
Methodology
Backbone Latent VDM pre-training and further training for text-conditioned video generation.
Experiments
Evaluation on UCF-101 and MSR-VTT datasets.
Results
Zero-shot performance comparisons and fine-tuning results on UCF-101 data.
Action-complex T2V Generation
Testing scenarios with multiple concurrent actions and different prompt lengths.
Human Evaluation
Scores for action faithfulness, scene richness, and movement fluency.
System Ablations
Impact of removing components like scene imagination or RL-based ICL.
Qualitative Results
Visual comparisons showing the superiority of Dysen-VDM over baselines.
Stats
