LongLive-2.0: An NVFP4 Parallel Infrastructure for Long Video Generation

We present LongLive-2.0, an NVFP4-based parallel infrastructure throughout the full training and inference workflow of long video generation, addressing speed and memory bottlenecks. For training, we introduce sequence-parallel autoregressive (AR) training, instantiated as Balanced SP, which co-designs the efficient teacher-forcing layout with SP execution by pairing clean-history and noisy-target temporal chunks on each rank, enabling a natural teacher-forcing mask with SP-aware chunked VAE encoding. Combined with NVFP4 precision, it reduces GPU memory cost and accelerates GEMM computation during training, the proportion of which increases as video length grows. Moreover, we show that a high-quality infrastructure and dataset enable a remarkably clean training pipeline. Unlike existing Self-Forcing series methods that rely on ODE initialization and subsequent distribution matching distillation (DMD), LongLive-2.0 directly tunes a diffusion model into a long, multi-shot, interactive auto-regressive (AR) diffusion model. It can be further converted to real-time generation (4 to 2 denoising steps) with standalone LoRA weights. For inference on Blackwell GPUs, we enable W4A4 NVFP4 inference, quantize KV cache into NVFP4 for memory savings, and boost end-to-end throughput with asynchronous streaming VAE decoding. On non-Blackwell GPU architectures, we deploy SP inference to match the speed on Blackwell GPUs, while the quantized KV cache can lower inter-GPU communication of SP. Experiments show up to 2.15x speedup in training, and 1.84x in inference. LongLive-2.0-5B achieves 45.7 FPS inference while attaining strong performance on benchmarks. To our knowledge, LongLive-2.0 is the first NVFP4 training and inference system for long video generation.

SANA-WM: Efficient Minute-Scale World Modeling with Hybrid Linear Diffusion Transformer

We introduce SANA-WM, an efficient 2.6B-parameter open-source world model natively trained for one-minute generation, synthesizing high-fidelity, 720p, minute-scale videos with precise camera control. SANA-WM achieves visual quality comparable to large-scale industrial baselines such as LingBot-World and HY-WorldPlay, while significantly improving efficiency. Four core designs drive our architecture: (1) Hybrid Linear Attention combines frame-wise Gated DeltaNet (GDN) with softmax attention for memory-efficient long-context modeling. (2) Dual-Branch Camera Control ensures precise 6-DoF trajectory adherence. (3) Two-Stage Generation Pipeline applies a long-video refiner to stage-1 outputs, improving quality and consistency across sequences. (4) Robust Annotation Pipeline extracts accurate metric-scale 6-DoF camera poses from public videos to yield high-quality, spatiotemporally consistent action labels. Driven by these designs, SANA-WMdemonstrates remarkable efficiency across data, training compute, and inference hardware: it uses only $\sim$213K public video clips with metric-scale pose supervision, completes training in 15 days on 64 H100s, and generates each 60s clip on a single GPU; its distilled variant can be deployed on a single RTX 5090 with NVFP4 quantization to denoise a 60s 720p clip in 34s. On our one-minute world-model benchmark, SANA-WM demonstrates stronger action-following accuracy than prior open-source baselines and achieves comparable visual quality at $36\times$ higher throughput for scalable world modeling.

Novel Class Discovery in Semantic Segmentation

We introduce a new setting of Novel Class Discovery in Semantic Segmentation (NCDSS), which aims at segmenting unlabeled images containing new classes given prior knowledge from a labeled set of disjoint classes. In contrast to existing approaches that look at novel class discovery in image classification, we focus on the more challenging semantic segmentation. In NCDSS, we need to distinguish the objects and background, and to handle the existence of multiple classes within an image, which increases the difficulty in using the unlabeled data. To tackle this new setting, we leverage the labeled base data and a saliency model to coarsely cluster novel classes for model training in our basic framework. Additionally, we propose the Entropy-based Uncertainty Modeling and Self-training (EUMS) framework to overcome noisy pseudo-labels, further improving the model performance on the novel classes. Our EUMS utilizes an entropy ranking technique and a dynamic reassignment to distill clean labels, thereby making full use of the noisy data via self-supervised learning. We build the NCDSS benchmark on the PASCAL-5$^i$ dataset and COCO-20$^i$ dataset. Extensive experiments demonstrate the feasibility of the basic framework (achieving an average mIoU of 49.81% on PASCAL-5$^i$) and the effectiveness of EUMS framework (outperforming the basic framework by 9.28% mIoU on PASCAL-5$^i$).

Style-Hallucinated Dual Consistency Learning for Domain Generalized Semantic Segmentation

In this paper, we study the task of synthetic-to-real domain generalized semantic segmentation, which aims to learn a model that is robust to unseen real-world scenes using only synthetic data. The large domain shift between synthetic and real-world data, including the limited source environmental variations and the large distribution gap between synthetic and real-world data, significantly hinders the model performance on unseen real-world scenes. In this work, we propose the Style-HAllucinated Dual consistEncy learning (SHADE) framework to handle such domain shift. Specifically, SHADE is constructed based on two consistency constraints, Style Consistency (SC) and Retrospection Consistency (RC). SC enriches the source situations and encourages the model to learn consistent representation across style-diversified samples. RC leverages real-world knowledge to prevent the model from overfitting to synthetic data and thus largely keeps the representation consistent between the synthetic and real-world models. Furthermore, we present a novel style hallucination module (SHM) to generate style-diversified samples that are essential to consistency learning. SHM selects basis styles from the source distribution, enabling the model to dynamically generate diverse and realistic samples during training. Experiments show that our SHADE yields significant improvement and outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 5.05% and 8.35% on the average mIoU of three real-world datasets on single- and multi-source settings, respectively.
