报告题目:Vchitect: Building Open-Source Foundation System for Video Generation
报告摘要
:Generating photorealistic and controllable video contents has been a long-pursuing goal of artificial intelligence (AI), with extensive real-world applications. It is also at the core of world model. In this talk, I will present Vchitect, our recent endeavor in building an open-source foundation system for video generation, with an emphasis on a full-cycle investigation from effective data, diffusion algorithms, transformer architectures to evaluation benchmarks. Our integral video generation system has shown its effectiveness and generalizability on a wide range of tasks.
