Selected as a best paper finalist at #CVPR2026: PixelDiT from NVIDIA Research In most image generation models, a pretrained autoencoder compresses the image before any diffusion happens, causing quality loss that accumulates across the entire pipeline. PixelDiT, or Pixel Diffusion Transformers, removes this step entirely. It's a single-stage model that learns the diffusion process directly in pixel space, end-to-end.

Wonderland: Navigating 3D Scenes from a Single Image Contributions: • First, we introduce a representation for controllable 3D generation by leveraging the generative priors from camera-guided video diffusion models. Unlike image models, video diffusion models are trained on extensive video datasets. This enables them to capture comprehensive spatial relationships within scenes across multiple views and embed a form of "3D awareness" in their latent space, which allows us to maintain 3D consistency in novel view synthesis. • Second, to achieve controllable novel view generation, we empower video models with precise control over specified camera motions. We introduce a novel dual-branch conditioning mechanism that effectively incorporates desired diverse camera trajectories into the video diffusion model. This enables expansion of a single image into a multi-view consistent capture of a 3D scene with precise pose control. • Third, to achieve efficient 3D reconstruction, we directly transform video latents into 3DGS. We propose a novel latent-based large reconstruction model (LaLRM) that lifts video latents to 3D in a feed-forward manner. With this design, during inference, our model directly predicts 3DGS from a single input image, effectively aligning the generation and reconstruction tasks—and bridging image space and 3D space—through the video latent space. Compared with reconstructing scenes from images, the video latent space offers a 256× spatial-temporal reduction while retaining essential and consistent 3D structural details. Such a high degree of compression is crucial, as it allows the LaLRM to handle a wider range of 3D scenes within the reconstruction framework, with the same memory constraints.

Create a 3D model from a single image, set of images or a text prompt in < 1 minute 😮‍💨 This new AI paper called CAT3D shows us that it’ll keep getting easier to produce 3D models from 2D images — whether it’s a sparser real world 3D scan (a few photos instead of hundreds) or your favorite 2D image generator like Midjourney (just an image). How does this magic work? “This architecture is similar to video diffusion models, but with camera pose embeddings for each image instead of time embeddings. The generated views are passed into a robust 3D reconstruction pipeline to create the 3D representation (Zip-NeRF or 3DGS)”

Video diffusion models have strong implicit representations of 3D shape, material, and lighting, but controlling them with language is cumbersome, and control is critical for artists and animators. GenLit connects these implicit representations with a continuous 5D control signal describing the direction and intensity of a point light source. This enables single-image near-field relighting of an image using a video diffusion model. We use a ControlNet-like approach and show that, with a small amount of synthetic data, GenLit generalizes to complex real-world images. Given a single image and the 5D lighting signal, GenLit creates a video of a moving light source that is inside the scene. It moves around and behind scene objects, producing effects such as shading, cast shadows, secularities, and interreflections with a realism that is hard to obtain with traditional inverse rendering methods. GenLit shows that it is possible to get continuous control over implicit physical processes within a video model. I think this is just the beginning and promises to make such models much more practical for creators. Shrisha Bharadwaj will present today at SIGGRAPH Asia Room: S423/S424, Level 4 @ 13:50 on 15 of Dec.

DimensionX: Create Any 3D and 4D Scenes from a Single Image with Controllable Video Diffusion TL;DR: Create 3/4DGS from Video Diffusion Note: Some first inference code released (not all yet). Contributions (cited): • We present DimensionX, a novel framework for generating photorealistic 3D and 4D scenes from only a single image using controllable video diffusion. • We propose ST-Director, which decouples the spatial and temporal priors in video diffusion models by learning (spatial and temporal) dimension-aware modules with our curated datasets. We further enhance the hybriddimension control with a training-free composition approach according to the essence of video diffusion denoising process. • To bridge the gap between video diffusion and real-world scenes, we design a trajectory-aware mechanism for 3D generation and an identity-preserving denoising approach for 4D generation, enabling more realistic and controllable scene synthesis. • Extensive experiments manifest that our DimensionX delivers superior performance in video, 3D, and 4D generation compared with baseline methods.

🚀New paper out - We present Video-MSG (Multimodal Sketch Guidance), a novel planning-based training-free guidance method for T2V models, improving control of spatial layout and object trajectories. 🔧 Key idea: • Generate a Video Sketch — a spatio-temporal plan with background, foreground, and motion in the pixel space. • Encode this structure directly into the latent space of the diffusion model during generation, which does not require fine-tuning or additional memory during inference. 🧵

High-resolution image and video generation is hitting a wall because attention in DiTs scales quadratically with token count. But does every pixel need to be in full resolution? Introducing Foveated Diffusion: a new approach for efficient diffusion-based generation that allocates compute where it matters most. 1/7🧵

NVIDIA just released a very impressive text-to-video paper. Video Latent Diffusion Models (Video LDMs) use a diffusion model in a compressed latent space to generate high-resolution videos. Here's a brief overview of how it works: 1. Pre-train image LDM on a dataset of images. 2. Turn the image LDM into a Video LDM by adding temporal layers to model video frames. 3. Fine-tune the Video LDM on encoded video sequences to create a video generator. 4. Temporally align diffusion model upsamplers to generate high-resolution videos. 5. Validate Video LDM on real driving videos of 512x1024 resolution, achieving state-of-the-art performance. 6. Apply the approach in creative content creation with text-to-video modeling.
