Causal-rCM: A Unified Teacher-Forcing and Self-Forcing Open Recipe for Autoregressive Diffusion Distillation in Streaming Video Generation and Interactive World Models
arXiv:2606.25473v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive video diffusion with causal diffusion transformers has emerged as a major paradigm for real-time streaming video generation and action-conditioned interactive world models. In this work, we extend rCM, an advanced diffusion distillation framework, to autoregressive video diffusion. The core philosophy of rCM lies in the complementarity between forward and reverse divergences, represented by consistency models (CMs) and distribution matching distillation (DMD), respectively, in diffusion distillation. This philosophy naturally car
This research provides a significant step forward in the quest for more efficient and real-time video generation and interactive AI models, building on recent advancements in diffusion models and distillation techniques.
The development of more sample-efficient and real-time autoregressive video diffusion models is critical for advancing interactive AI, virtual environments, and potentially embodied AI systems.
This work introduces Causal-rCM, a unified framework that combines teacher-forcing and self-forcing for autoregressive diffusion distillation, promising accelerated training and improved performance in streaming video generation.
