arXiv:2606.30248v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent text-to-video (T2V) diffusion models rely heavily on auxiliary reward signals (e.g., via reward models or DPO) to align generated content with human aesthetics and improve realism. These signals, however, incur substantial computational overhead, require costly human annotations, and often yield limited improvement in fine-grained local details. In this paper, we argue that your data manifold is secretly a reward model. By explicitly modeling the manifold structure of high-quality Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) data and encouraging video l
The proliferation of text-to-video diffusion models means the need for more efficient and high-quality generation methods is becoming critical, and current reward model limitations are a bottleneck.
This research suggests a more efficient approach to improving T2V quality by leveraging inherent data structures, potentially reducing computational costs and reliance on extensive human annotation.
The paradigm for improving T2V generation shifts from external reward models/DPO to intrinsic data manifold structure analysis, offering a more scalable and potentially higher-fidelity pathway.
