Diffusion models have recently advanced text-to-video (T2V) generation, yet they still struggle with fine-grained compositional alignment, such as attribute binding, spatial relations, and object interactions. While reward-based fine-tuning improves alignment, it is susceptible to reward hacking and adapts poorly to new prompt distributions. In this work, we propose NoisEasier, a test-time scaling framework that improves T2V generation through differentiable reward-guided noise optimization without modifying the underlying model. By combining efficient short-step generators with a multi-objective reward formulation, NoisEasier enables stable and practical test-time optimization under realistic inference budgets. Our key insight is that jointly optimizing the entire stochastic trajectory accelerates reward convergence and improves compositional alignment over optimizing only the initial latent, with negligible additional computational and time cost. Experiments on VBench and T2V-CompBench demonstrate consistent improvements across multiple backbones, achieving over 10% average gains on challenging dimensions such as attribute binding, object interaction, and numeracy. Overall, NoisEasier serves as both a flexible alternative and a complementary enhancement to reward-based fine-tuning, establishing test-time scaling as an effective paradigm for controllable text-to-video generation.
The efficient Test-Time Scaling (TTS) paradigm offers a promising perspective for enhancing the generation performance of diffusion models. However, current solutions are limited to a static, pre-defined noise pool and suffer from inflexible noise exploration across the denoising trajectory. To bridge this gap, we propose RTS, a novel Reward-guided Trajectory Scaling method to fully unlock the generative potential of diffusion models. Unlike existing methods, RTS facilitates the synthesis of refined, high-fidelity images via two core innovations: 1) a reward-guided noise optimization strategy to actively direct the search towards promising regions; and 2) a sparse test-time scaling framework together with a PCA-driven curvature analysis scheme to prioritize key intermediate steps in the entire denoising space, effectively compressing the search space. Experiments show our approach outperforms baselines by 15.6% across GenEval Score, and a 60.4% enhancement in ImageReward score, setting a new SOTA while providing a practical guideline for more effective test-time scaling across diffusion-specific architectures.
