NOVA: A Novel Video Autoregressive Model Without Vector Quantization

Understanding Autoregressive LLMs

Autoregressive LLMs are sophisticated neural networks that create coherent and contextually relevant text by predicting one word at a time. They are particularly effective with large datasets and excel in tasks like translation, summarization, and conversational AI. However, generating high-quality visuals often requires significant computational power, especially for higher resolutions or longer videos.

Challenges in Current Video Generation Models

Current video generation models have several limitations:

  • They often struggle with fixed-length outputs, limiting their flexibility.
  • Autoregressive models face issues converting visual data into discrete tokens.
  • Higher quality outputs demand more tokens, which increases computational costs.

Introducing NOVA: A New Solution

To tackle these challenges, researchers from BUPT, ICT-CAS, DLUT, and BAAI developed NOVA, a non-quantized autoregressive model for video generation. NOVA generates video frames sequentially while predicting spatial sets flexibly within each frame.

Key Features of NOVA

  • Time and Space Prediction: It separates the generation of frames and spatial sets for more accurate results.
  • Efficient Training: Uses a pre-trained language model and optical flow for motion tracking.
  • Enhanced Stability: Introduces scaling and shifting layers for improved model stability.
  • Continuous Space Predictions: Incorporates diffusion loss to make training and inference more efficient.

High-Quality Training Data

NOVA was trained on extensive datasets, starting with 16 million image-text pairs and expanding to 600 million, along with 19 million video-text pairs. This rich data foundation ensures high-quality outputs.

Outstanding Performance

Evaluations on T2I-CompBench and other platforms showed that NOVA outperformed existing models in both text-to-image and text-to-video tasks, delivering clearer and more detailed visuals.

Benefits of NOVA

NOVA represents a significant leap in video generation technology, reducing complexity while enhancing output quality. Its advanced features enable near-commercial quality for images and videos, paving the way for future innovations in this field.
