HEART framework boosts video diffusion model efficiency

Researchers have developed HEART, a novel training-free framework designed to enhance the efficiency of sparse attention mechanisms in video diffusion models. This method addresses head heterogeneity by adapting mask refreshing and threshold calibration based on observed head behavior across denoising steps. HEART leverages Temporal Mask Reuse (TMR) to intelligently update sparse masks and Error-guided Budgeted Calibration (EBC) to optimize thresholds, leading to improved quality-efficiency trade-offs without requiring model retraining or modifications.

    HEART: Exploiting Head Heterogeneity in Sparse Attention for Video Diffusion

    arXiv:2605.14513v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sparse attention accelerates video diffusion by allowing each attention head to focus on only a small subset of interactions. Existing methods already construct head-specific sparse patterns conditioned on the input. Howev…
