Leveraging inherent diffusion features, COVE introduces a framework for consistent video editing that adaptively tracks token correspondences across frames. The method produces high-quality video edits with enhanced temporal coherence, outperforming existing baselines in various metrics and user preference without requiring additional model training.

Key insights

  • Diffusion features inherently contain rich, fine-grained, and robust "one-to-many" correspondence information that can be effectively leveraged for temporal consistency in video.
  • Explicitly guiding attention with these intrinsic correspondences is crucial for achieving fine-grained temporal consistency, surpassing reliance on external optical flow or global attention.
  • A localized, sliding-window search strategy for correspondence acquisition significantly improves computational efficiency, making the method practical for video editing.
