Researchers have developed a novel Training-Free Scale-Driven Online Flow Refinement (SOFR) method to enhance the generalization capabilities of neural video codecs (NVCs). This plug-and-play module integrates motion information from multiple scales and dynamically fuses it to correct motion estimation errors with minimal computational cost. SOFR also incorporates a rate-aware strategy and a reliability check for robustness, demonstrating significant bitrate savings on the USTC-TD dataset across various NVC frameworks like DCVC-SDD, DCVC-FM, and EHVC.
