SyncVid lifts a monocular video into a canonical 4D representation and adds a cross-view-consistent whitening procedure that decorrelates neighboring pixels while preserving cross-view correspondence, feeding the structured noise as the prior for a LoRA-adapted pretrained video diffusion model with no architectural changes. The researchers report that SyncVid improves both perceptual quality and cross-view consistency in their experiments, detailed in arXiv paper 2610.31765v1.", "body_md": "arXiv:2610.31765v1 Announce Type: new \nAbstract: Generating multiple videos of a dynamic scene from a single reference video requires synthesizing both observed and unobserved content consistently across viewpoints. Existing camera-control methods for video diffusion typically rely on architectural mechanisms, including camera embeddings, cross-view attention, and geometric conditioning. Although effective for static scene content, these approaches often struggle with the fine-grained, dynamic geometry that must remain coherent across views and over time. We synchronize the diffusion process itself by sampling the Gaussian noise prior in a canonical 3D space derived from the source video and rasterizing it into target cameras, rather than sampling independently in each 2D image plane. Our method, SyncVid, lifts a monocular video into a canonical 4D representation, associates noise with scene geometry and unseen space, and rasterizes the resulting structured noise into arbitrary views. Because rendering can introduce local correlations, we further propose a cross-view-consistent whitening procedure that decorrelates neighboring pixels while preserving correspondence across views. The structured noise serves as the diffusion prior for a LoRA-adapted pretrained video diffusion model, requiring no architectural modifications. By enforcing spatiotemporal and cross-view coherence at the source of stochasticity, SyncVid generates synchronized videos and improves both perceptual quality and cross-view consistency in our experiments.
