HiAR: Efficient Autoregressive Long Video Generation via Hierarchical Denoising

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.08703v1 Announce Type: new Autoregressive (AR) diffusion offers a promising framework for generating videos of theoretically infinite length. However, a major challenge is maintaining temporal continuity while preventing the progressive quality degradation caused by error accumulation. To ensure continuity, existing methods typically condition on highly denoised contexts; yet, this practice propagates prediction errors with high certainty, thereby exacerbating degradation. In this paper, we argue that a highly clean context is unnecessary.
