arXiv:2605.20659v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have revolutionized high-fidelity video generation, yet their $\mathcal{O}(L^2)$ attention complexity poses a formidable bottleneck for long-sequence synthesis. While recent sparse-linear attention hybrids aim to mitigate this, their performance severely degrades at extreme sparsity due to the "RoPE Dilemma": standard linear attention fails to preserve the orthogonal relative-position structure of 3D Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE), neutralizing vital distance awareness. To address this, we propose \textbf{RoPeSL
The increasing demand for higher-fidelity video generation necessitates more efficient transformer architectures, and current Sparse-Linear attention models are failing at extreme sparsity, prompting new research into solutions like RoPeSLR.
This breakthrough addresses a fundamental limitation in efficient Diffusion Transformers, potentially enabling the generation of much longer and higher-quality videos without prohibitive computational costs, impacting future AI capabilities.
The proposed RoPeSLR introduces a method to preserve crucial distance awareness in sparse attention mechanisms, offering a path to significantly more efficient and performant video generation models.
