Streaming 3D reconstruction from extremely long videos requires estimating camera motion and scene geometry online under bounded memory and computation. Early streaming models achieve causal, bounded-cost inference using finite context buffers or compact recurrent states, yet their estimates often deteriorate as sequences grow. Recent methods improve long-horizon stability by coupling short-range context with persistent or multi-level long-range memory. We pursue a different route: we keep the learned temporal state strictly local and formulate predictions whose targets remain independent of sequence length. We present ABot-Recon, a simple streaming model that caches KV features from only the preceding 11 frames. It predicts a point map in the current camera coordinate system together with an adjacent-frame relative pose. These predictions remain equivariant under changes of reference frame, and global poses and geometry are recovered through sequential composition. To reduce accumulated drift, a lightweight temporal refiner improves relative rotations using recent visual and motion context, while a composition-aware pose loss supervises multi-step pose composition. Extensive evaluations on challenging long-sequence benchmarks demonstrate the superior long-horizon performance of our local-context approach. On Oxford Spires, ABot-Recon achieves an ATE of 4.35 m and an RPE-R of $0.12^\circ$, reducing both errors by approximately 40\% relative to the best prior results.
Recent work has applied Mamba style state space models (SSMs) to video anomaly detection, yet existing approaches still rely on buffering clips or windows internally, lack a theoretical account of how temporal memory relates to detection latency, and benchmark efficiency only through GPU throughput rather than the edge hardware these methods are intended to target. We introduce a strictly causal streaming anomaly detector whose fixed size state is updated in O(1) time and memory per incoming frame, with no lookahead and no clip buffering. Its temporal core is a diagonal linear state space recurrence with an input and state dependent decay gate, trained self supervised through causal next embedding prediction on a frozen visual backbone. We derive a closed form relationship between the recurrence decay spectrum and both detection delay and the shortest anomaly it can reliably capture, then validate empirically on UCSD Ped2 and CUHK Avenue. The settling delay bound predicted from the learned base decay (57 to 59 frames) sits far above the measured detection delay (1.6 and 18.4 frames), showing that the event boundary gate, not the base decay, governs responsiveness. We further report end to end latency and throughput measured directly on Apple M3 Pro hardware, 0.74 ms and 0.77 ms per frame (over 1300 FPS), rather than simulated GPU numbers. With an untuned initial configuration the method reaches 67.9 percent and 70.2 percent frame level AUC on Ped2 and Avenue, trailing prior non causal SSM baselines in accuracy. Ablations over decay rate, state size, and gating reveal that the gate contribution is dataset size dependent, hurting accuracy on the smaller Ped2 training set but helping on the larger Avenue one. Closing this accuracy gap and extending evaluation to a third, larger benchmark are immediate next steps.

Volumetric video streaming turns privacy into a 3D, multi-view problem. Unlike ordinary video, where sensitive content can often be redacted frame by frame, RGB-D volumetric pipelines capture people, rooms, and personal objects from multiple cameras and fuse them into a shared 3D representation. A private object missed in one view, or only partially removed before fusion, can therefore reappear in the reconstructed scene. This creates a privacy challenge for 3D telepresence, education, entertainment, and immersive applications: private content should be removed before raw visual and geometric data leave the camera side, while the public part of the scene should remain useful for real-time reconstruction. Existing volumetric streaming systems mainly optimize reconstruction, data movement, and latency, while privacy-preserving vision methods are designed for single-camera, single-frame images and do not directly address calibrated multi-view RGB-D fusion. We present InViStream, a real-time "privacy-from-source" system designed for this setting. InViStream addresses three challenges in volumetric capture: private objects may appear differently across views, RGB masking alone can leave geometric privacy leakage in depth, and public/private instances of the same class must be separated consistently before cloud-side fusion. To address these challenges, InViStream combines object detection with depth-aware masking, propagates public/private decisions across calibrated views, and fuses only sanitized point clouds. We evaluate InViStream on synthetic and real RGB-D scenes, including offices, conference rooms, living rooms, and settings with multiple public and private people and objects. InViStream achieves synthetic Dice/Recall of 0.799/0.891 and real Dice/Recall of 0.792/0.908, with synthetic SSIM above 0.98 and real-time streaming above 30 FPS.
Real-time video editing requires low-latency causal generation with bounded computational resources while preserving source fidelity and long-term temporal consistency. We present JoyAI-Video-Edit, a 16B-parameter autoregressive diffusion framework for real-time, open-ended video editing without access to future frames or a predefined video duration. Our method combines chunk-wise autoregressive adaptation, Source-Anchored Distribution Matching Distillation (SA-DMD), and Long-Horizon Autoregressive Distillation to reduce train--inference mismatch, preserve source fidelity during two-step generation, and mitigate accumulated temporal drift. Extensive automatic and human evaluations show that JoyAI-Video-Edit substantially outperforms existing streaming editors and remains competitive with strong offline systems on both short and long videos. The complete system achieves end-to-end 720p video editing at approximately 30 FPS on a single Nvidia B200 GPU. Code is available at https://github.com/jd-opensource/JoyAI-Video-Edit.
Quality-tier video object segmentation (VOS) trackers such as DAM4SAM top accuracy leaderboards, but they are measured offline, one frame at a time with no clock. Under an honest streaming protocol at 30 frames per second, where a frame that misses its budget is served the last mask already computed, the winner collapses: the rich memory that makes it accurate is too slow to keep up, and what it emits is blind to whether the object is even present. We trace both failures to one place, the tracker's memory pipeline, and rebuild it for streaming. \method{} makes the memory machinery itself run at frame rate through in-model optimization rather than a bolted-on fallback, and governs it with a single learned presence signal that decides what enters memory, how far back the tracker reads, when to withhold output, and when to re-detect. A mechanism analysis shows why a fixed policy cannot win: the control that helps when an object truly disappears is the one that hurts when it is merely hard to see, so the choice must be made per frame. Across four benchmarks and five modern baselines, \method{} is the strongest streaming tracker, recovers nearly all of the offline model's accuracy under the clock, and on the hardest content exceeds the offline model it is built from.
Feed-forward 3D Gaussian Splatting enables efficient novel-view synthesis without per-scene optimization, but most existing methods assume a fixed set of context views and process them jointly. This limits their applicability to online scenarios where calibrated views arrive sequentially and the scene must be updated causally. We present \emph{StreamSplat}, a streaming feed-forward 3DGS framework that incrementally maintains a persistent geometry-grounded scene state and decodes it into renderable 3D Gaussians after each input chunk. StreamSplat centers on a \textbf{Voxel-Aligned Causal Cache (VACC)}, which stores historical 3D tokens in a memory-bounded voxel structure so that memory grows with explored scene geometry rather than stream length. To better reuse history during causal prediction, we introduce \textbf{History-Projected Depth Anchoring (HPDA)} to project cached geometry as depth guidance for current cost-volume estimation, and \textbf{Cache-Guided Feature Injection (CGFI)} to inject cached latent evidence into Gaussian-token regression. Experiments on DL3DV, RealEstate10K, and ScanNet show that StreamSplat remains competitive with state-of-the-art feed-forward 3DGS methods under sparse causal inputs, despite not using future views or full-scene context. More importantly, it scales to long input streams with 256, 512, and 1024 views where fixed-view baselines run out of memory, yielding sustained improvements in novel-view synthesis quality as more observations arrive. The code will be made publicly available upon acceptance.
Real-time co-speech gesture generation must produce 3D motion clip by clip as speech arrives. Existing streaming methods are open-loop: each clip depends on past context, but the model cannot check or correct its trajectory. Small errors therefore accumulate and cause drift over long sequences. We observe that this failure is mainly caused by the lack of a forward constraint rather than poor short-clip quality. A plausible key pose at the end of each clip provides a destination anchor that limits drift. Based on this observation, we propose StreamTalk, a closed-loop framework with a periodic generate-retrieve-refine cycle. Streaming Pose-Guided Generation first predicts a coarse clip, retrieves a plausible tail pose from a speaker-specific motion database, and refines the clip using this pose before continuing to the next window. During training, Stochastic Anchor Masking randomly masks pose and translation frames, teaching the model to recover complete motion from sparse boundary conditions. A part-aware DiT separates hand, body, and translation streams to reduce interference between global displacement and local articulation. On BEAT2, StreamTalk achieves state-of-the-art FGD, reduces long-horizon drift relative to open-loop baselines, and runs in real time at 76 FPS.

We present Visko Orbis 1.0, a Live Model for real-time, interactive long-video generation. Users can change the prompt at any moment during generation, and the update becomes visible in real time. Visko Orbis 1.0 supports long-form text-to-video, image-to-video, and video continuation, with multilingual prompts and prompt switching while generation is in progress. A bounded multi-scale memory preserves subjects, scenes, and style across chunks, sustaining hour-scale rollouts without evident quality or color drift. Built on a distilled chunk-wise streaming generator and a streaming video upscaler, Visko Orbis 1.0 delivers real-time 4K video generation at 24 FPS using an optimized GPU serving engine. In long-form Arena comparisons, Visko Orbis 1.0 obtains the highest overall-preference and temporal-stability ratings among state-of-the-art real-time interactive video-generation systems.
Streaming video diffusion models have made substantial progress toward interactive and dynamic world simulation, but the nested autoregressive and denoising loops of conventional next-frame generation hinder real-time deployment. Recent rolling-window methods pipeline denoising across multiple consecutive frames at different noise levels, improving throughput and long-horizon stability. However, they tokenize every state at the same fine spatial granularity, leaving substantial noise-dependent redundancy in the joint denoising window. We propose Ms.Forcing, an efficient streaming video generation paradigm that adapts spatial granularity to each state's noise level. Its Multi-Scale Patchification (MSP) assigns coarser patches to noisier states, reducing the active-window token count by 45%, while Multi-Scale Self-Attention (MSSA) matches the density of visible non-sink keys and values to each query scale to further reduce attention cost. Because both schedules are fixed by window position, Ms.Forcing retains a static, hardware-friendly computation graph. We further introduce Homogeneous-Noise-Level DMD (H-DMD), which assembles each fake video from clean predictions sharing the same source noise level, thereby reducing the mismatch between DMD training sequences and inference-time rollouts. The multi-scale design helps offset the additional training cost of backpropagating through overlapping windows. We include both quantitative and qualitative experiments to show that Ms.Forcing reaches 22.84 FPS on a single H200 GPU, 39.6% faster than Rolling Forcing, while significantly improving VBench scores in both short video and long video generation setting.

Existing human--object interaction (HOI) video generation methods are largely limited to offline short-video generation with complex driving conditions, making them unsuitable for real-time interactive applications. We present \emph{StreamHOI}, a low-latency streaming framework for long-duration HOI video generation. Instead of converting heavily conditioned HOI pipelines into streaming systems, we study how an image-to-video streaming generator should organize historical memory to preserve interactions under bounded latency. We find that the standard sink-local memory design faces a trade-off in streaming HOI generation, and different transformer blocks show different historical-memory preferences for HOI regions and surrounding regions. To match memory composition with block behavior, StreamHOI performs offline HOI-aware block profiling and applies bias-guided memory-specialized training to adapt the generator to block-specific memory layouts. We further introduce a memory distance scaling module to strengthen long-range access to early interaction states. Extensive comparisons with both long-video baselines and recent HOI generation methods demonstrate that StreamHOI achieves strong interaction plausibility, object fidelity, human quality and efficiency, reaching 17.6 FPS with 0.75s first-chunk latency.
Streaming 3D reconstruction relies on a compact recurrent scene state to process long image streams in linear time and bounded memory. However, repeated updates can gradually corrupt this state, causing reliable historical information to be overwritten by noisy or ambiguous observations. We introduce ReCal3R, a reliability-calibrated learning rate method for recurrent 3D reconstruction. Instead of directly applying a candidate learning rate, our method estimates state token reliability from the maintained scene state and uses it to calibrate a candidate learning rate derived from token alignment, state reconstruction residual, and recent update pressure. The resulting token-wise learning rate interpolates between a conservative base rate and the candidate rate, suppressing aggressive updates on unreliable tokens while preserving adaptation to informative frames. Applied to CUT3R as a training-free calibration rule, ReCal3R reaches strong performance on long sequences in pose, depth, and reconstruction quality, including a 3.7$\times$ reduction in ATE, with comparable runtime and memory. Code is available at: https://github.com/Powertony102/ReCal3R.
Streaming video editing has made rapid progress, yet practical deployment is still limited by two core issues: maintaining stable backgrounds and non-edited regions over time, and achieving the low latency required for real-time interactive scenarios. Meanwhile, recent streaming video generation methods are mostly developed for synthesis and cannot be directly applied to editing due to the strict preservation requirement and region-specific control. In this work, we present a novel streaming video editing framework that performs causal, frame-by-frame editing with strong content preservation and real-time responsiveness. Our key design is a three-stage distillation pipeline that progressively transfers editing capability from a powerful bidirectional foundation model to an efficient unidirectional streaming editor, enabling stable long-horizon edits without sacrificing visual fidelity. To further support real-time deployment, we introduce an AR-oriented mask cache that reuses region-related computation across frames, substantially reducing redundant processing and accelerating inference. Finally, we establish a dedicated benchmark for streaming video editing. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art visual quality among streaming baselines while drastically boosting inference speed to 12.66 FPS, making it suitable for interactive and augmented reality applications.
Real-time video restoration (VR) for live streams requires high-resolution outputs under strict per-frame latency constraints. Existing one-step diffusion-based VR models remain difficult to deploy on consumer-grade GPUs due to two main bottlenecks: quadratic spatial attention at high resolutions and the latency-memory overhead of large video autoencoders. We present SwiftVR, a streaming one-step generative VR framework that reduces both bottlenecks under a causal chunk-wise protocol. For attention, mask-free shifted-window self-attention gathers each spatial window into a dense tensor via deterministic indexing, keeping all attention calls on the dense scaled dot-product attention path without masks, cyclic shifts, padding, or hardware-specific sparse kernels. Because SwiftVR uses only standard dense SDPA calls, the trained model transfers to consumer GPUs without retraining or custom kernels. For autoencoding, a lightweight Restoration-aware Autoencoder enables fast chunk-wise decoding while preserving reconstruction quality. On a single H100, SwiftVR sustains 31~FPS at 2560x1440 and 14~FPS at 3840x2160, whereas all compared diffusion-based VR baselines exceed the memory limit at 4K. On a consumer RTX~5090, SwiftVR reaches 26~FPS at 1920x1080. To our knowledge, SwiftVR is the first generative VR model to achieve real-time 1080p streaming on a consumer-grade GPU, while attaining strong no-reference perceptual quality with lower inference cost. Project is available at https://h-oliday.github.io/SwiftVR.
While recent autoregressive video diffusion models achieve remarkable streaming quality, they remain confined to low resolutions (e.g., 480P), leaving efficient, scalable, real-time high-resolution video generation a fundamental open challenge. To bridge this gap, we present Ultra Flash, a cascaded streaming framework capable of real-time high-resolution video generation. Ultra Flash achieves ~30 FPS at 1K resolution and ~18 FPS at 2K resolution on a single GPU through three key contributions: (1) an architecture-preserving T2V-to-TV2V super-resolution training paradigm coupled with an AIGC-oriented data degradation pipeline that effectively preserves the generative capability of the base model, enabling enhanced high-resolution detail when cascaded after mainstream low-resolution generative models; (2) a causal streaming latent upsampler paired with a high-resolution decoder, which enhances spatiotemporal coherence while enabling efficient latent spatial scaling and precise high-resolution decoding with negligible computational overhead; and (3) a cascade high-resolution streaming video generation optimization scheme that first performs hybrid-reward-enhanced sparse causalization and single-step distillation of the super-resolution model, then introduces cascaded streaming self-forcing preference optimization with dynamic cache management, jointly enhancing overall coherence, improving quality, and enabling real-time high-resolution streaming video generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Ultra Flash reliably produces ultra-high-resolution streaming video while maintaining state-of-the-art visual quality and superior efficiency.
Long-horizon online visual mapping is a core capability for robot perception, requiring continuous camera-motion and scene-geometry estimation from visual streams under bounded memory and computation. Recent feed-forward 3D reconstruction models provide strong geometric priors, but their streaming variants often predict poses in a fixed coordinate system tied to the first frame or a persistent scene memory. This fixed-gauge design leads to train--test mismatch, attention bias toward early anchors, and accumulated drift on sequences much longer than those seen during training. We propose \emph{Anchor3R}, a streaming 3D reconstruction framework that treats feed-forward reconstruction as current-centric local measurement prediction rather than persistent global-gauge regression. At each time step, Anchor3R predicts window-relative poses and a local pointmap in the current-frame coordinate system, turning streaming reconstruction into relative-pose measurement generation. These measurements support online pose updates, while loop-closure reinsertion and motion averaging align the trajectory and transform local pointmaps into a coherent global reconstruction. Experiments on indoor, outdoor, driving, and RGB-D benchmarks show that Anchor3R improves long-horizon pose accuracy and dense reconstruction quality over existing streaming baselines, while supporting bounded-memory online inference.
Video diffusion models have significantly advanced portrait video generation, yet their high computational demands limit their use in interactive applications. This work presents a framework for streamable talking portrait video generation conditioned on speech audio and reference images. Designed meticulously for streaming scenarios, it features a causal video VAE for deep latent compression and an autoregressive latent denoising model. Our causal VAE integrates a variable number of reference images as guidance, allowing the network to focus on dynamic information rather than static appearance, thereby enhancing compression efficacy and reconstruction quality. Additionally, we extend the residual auto-encoding paradigm to improve spatial-temporal causality handling in our VAE. The generator is based on a Rectified Flow Transformer architecture and produces video latents in a blockwise auto-regressive manner. Our method enables the real-time generation of high-quality talking portrait videos, achieving speeds significantly faster than baseline models. Furthermore, comprehensive experiments demonstrate that it is on par with or even outperforms these large models in realism, vividness, and video quality.
View-conditioned 3D generators such as SAM 3D, TRELLIS and Hunyuan3D produce high-quality object reconstructions from a single view, but real-world visual observation often arrives as long monocular streams. Naively applying these generators to each streaming frame independently leads to severe temporal inconsistency in the generated results. To address this problem, we propose Stream3D, the first training-free streaming mechanism that turns a frozen view-conditioned 3D generator into a streaming generator with constant cross-chunk memory. Stream3D achieves this by maintaining a compact evidential memory, which selectively caches the most informative historical frames based on a proposed evidence score mechanism. As the stream progresses, the memory dynamically updates to retain a fixed number of informative frames, preventing the memory footprint from growing linearly with sequence length. This also prevents degradation over long sequences and keeps the underlying generator completely unchanged without retraining, architectural modifications, or auxiliary losses. Evaluated on both realistic and synthetic streaming benchmarks, Stream3D outperforms latent-transport baselines, including KV-cache reuse and flow-based feature editing, across both photometric and geometric metrics.
