Diffusion-based Video Virtual Try-On (VVT) achieves high visual fidelity through bidirectional spatio-temporal modeling, but complete-clip dependence incurs prohibitive latency and computational overhead in practical continuous deployment. Naively enforcing causality disrupts pretrained bidirectional priors and substantially degrades synthesis quality. We introduce LiveVVT, a rolling streaming diffusion framework that preserves bounded bidirectional modeling within causal recurrent generation. Within a fixed-size window, LiveVVT jointly denoises multiple video chunks under bounded look-ahead, preserving local bidirectional interactions while emitting one clean chunk per iteration. Beyond the window, two complementary memories sustain long-term consistency: a bounded temporal memory propagates recent dynamics and occlusion context, whereas a persistent global appearance memory, constructed once from the target garment and a frontal try-on keyframe, anchors garment details and dressed appearance throughout the stream. We further introduce a progressive distillation framework integrating bidirectional VVT learning, teacher-trajectory regression for causal few-step adaptation, and Collaborative Matching Distillation, which couples teacher-distribution matching with rolling flow matching on real videos to align optimization with recurrent inference. Experiments on paired and unpaired long-sequence benchmarks demonstrate superior generation quality over similarly sized models, with $26\times$ lower latency and $11\times$ higher throughput, enabling high-fidelity real-time streaming VVT.

Co-speech gesture generation has made significant progress toward realistic full-body motion from speaker audio, yet existing models lack fine-grained spatial controllability of individual joints. To address this, we introduce \emph{InteractGesture}, a model-agnostic, inference-time method for spatially controllable gesture generation. \emph{InteractGesture} guides target latent estimates of a diffusion sampler through a differentiable RVQ-VAE decoder, backpropagating spatial control gradients to adjust motion latents during sampling. A primary challenge in streaming co-speech generation is chunk-wise dependency: standard sequential inference freezes prior chunks, preventing spatial constraints in future chunks from adjusting preceding trajectories and causing boundary inconsistencies. To overcome this limitation, we propose \emph{Progressive Chunk Guidance}, a chunk-window strategy that maintains an active set of editable chunk latents with staggered delays, enabling spatial constraints to propagate gradients backward across chunk boundaries during streaming generation. Experiments on the BEAT2 dataset show that \emph{InteractGesture} improves multi-joint spatial control while preserving overall gesture quality. Furthermore, our approach supports diverse applications, including sparse joint positioning, dense joint trajectory control, and directional pointing.

Generative video models now synthesize footage nearly indistinguishable from reality. Their promise as interactive tools hinges on fine-grained control of how objects and the camera move over time, yet each existing approach captures only part of this: camera-parameter methods steer the viewpoint but cannot move objects, 2D-trajectory methods act in the image plane and ignore depth and occlusion, and recent 3D methods add geometry but run only offline at a fixed length. In particular, none combines 3D-consistent control of both camera and objects with real-time, streaming generation. Here we show that camera motion, object trajectories, and depth can be unified into a single 3D point-track representation, from which one model performs joint camera and object control, depth editing, and motion transfer in a single forward pass. To learn this interface at scale, we mine in-the-wild video for 3D motion supervision, yielding OpenVidHD-Motion3D, and encode it with a lightweight Geometric Motion Head that plugs into a pretrained video diffusion model. Because this encoder is temporally separable, we distill the model into a causal streaming student that generates arbitrarily long video in four denoising steps at memory independent of length. This unified design surpasses prior camera-only, 2D, and offline-3D methods in motion-control precision while covering modalities they address only in isolation. 4DStreamCtrl runs at 20 FPS on a single high-end GPU for 480p video and stays temporally coherent over hundreds of frames, enabling, to our knowledge, interactive 4D-controllable streaming generation for the first time. More broadly, grounding generation in explicit 3D geometry with efficient causal inference points toward interactive world models with closed-loop spatiotemporal control, from controllable simulators to real-time visual imagination for embodied agents.
With large pretrained models, existing methods have effectively improved instruction-based video editing. However, most of them rely on an in-place editing assumption. They align the edited video with the given source clip frame by frame over a fixed time span. This pattern fails for open-ended streams, e.g., restyling a live game or applying a camera move to an ongoing shot. In such cases, edits must extend to future frames as they arrive, rather than be applied to a static input clip. In this paper, we study this setting and name it infinite video editing: given a preceding segment and an edit request, a model must generate the next segment that continues the stream while applying the requested edit. This process repeats as an unbounded sequence of edit instructions arrives. This task brings two challenges: the edit must be a faithful continuation rather than a frame-wise rewrite, and generation quality must remain stable as edits accumulate. To address them, we first design a data-collection pipeline for infinite video editing. Based on the collected data, we propose InfinityEdit, a lightweight edit adapter that equips a streaming video generator with unbounded editing ability. The adapter contains three attention modules. History cross-attention guides the denoising frames using the input frames. Temporal causal self-attention keeps temporal cues flowing only from earlier frames to later ones. Edit cross-attention injects the edit request into generation. During inference, the adapter is activated only in the chunk where an edit request arrives. Subsequent chunks are generated by the original model with a reset anchor frame. This scheme applies the edit while preserving the original model's infinite generation ability. Extensive experiments show that InfinityEdit faithfully continues the stream under each edit, and stays stable over unbounded edit sequences.
Streaming autoregressive diffusion models enable real-time, long-horizon video generation, but their training objectives optimize local frame prediction rather than the geometry and dynamics of a coherent world: long rollouts accumulate geometric drift and degrade into static or unnatural motion. Recent bidirectional approaches address this problem using rewards signals built upon 3D Gaussian-Splatting reconstruction. However, a single rigid 3d reconstruction cannot model a dynamic scene, so this critic penalizes genuine object motion as reconstruction error and is maximized by freezing the video. This shortcut is especially detrimental in the AR setting, where each chunk can propagate an already-static configuration. In this work, we propose Stream4D, which replaces the static critic with a feed-forward 4D reconstruction reward that explicitly models scene dynamics, allowing coherent motion to receive high consistency rewards. To further guide motion magnitude and quality, we add a motion prior that rewards natural scene-flow magnitude while penalizing jitter and non-rigid artifacts. Our final recipe combines these two terms with a lightweight perceptual anchor. Across various autoregressive video backbones and various generation horizons, Stream4D improves 4D reconstruction quality, preserves motion more effectively, and achieves higher human-aligned preference.

Video world models predict future observations conditioned on historical observations and control signals, enabling long-horizon generation through autoregressive state transitions. Unlike conventional video generation models that primarily capture visual appearance and motion, video world models learn the underlying dynamics governing environment evolution under agent actions, providing a foundation for embodied AI and interactive simulation. Recent progress has largely relied on adapting pretrained video generation models through post-training or distillation. Although effective, these approaches often require complex training pipelines, substantial computational resources, and suffer from the mismatch between bidirectional pretraining and causal streaming inference. Recent studies have shown that training autoregressive video world models from scratch is feasible and scalable. However, the community still lacks a lightweight, transparent, and fully reproducible baseline trainable end-to-end with modest computational resources. We present MiniWorld, a reproducible framework for training streaming video world models from scratch. MiniWorld employs a block-causal Video Diffusion Transformer trained with Flow Matching in the latent space of a pretrained Video VAE. Building on Diffusion Forcing, it adopts a chunk-wise non-decreasing noise schedule and two-stage continued training to improve temporal modeling and stability. During inference, MiniWorld combines a rolling KV cache with pipelined asynchronous denoising for efficient streaming generation under bounded computation. The entire model can be trained within several days on a single 8-GPU server. By releasing the training and inference codebase and pretrained checkpoints, we hope MiniWorld will facilitate future research on video world modeling.
