Controllable Video Generation: A Survey

This survey provides a comprehensive overview of controllable video generation, a rapidly developing subfield of AI-generated content (AIGC). As AI models become more sophisticated, there's a growing need for methods that allow users to precisely control video output to match their intent. Current text-to-video models often fall short because text prompts alone are insufficient for complex or fine-grained requests. To address this, researchers are integrating non-textual conditions, such as camera motion or human pose, into existing video generation models to enable more accurate and flexible video synthesis. The survey systematically reviews the theoretical foundations and recent advancements in controllable video generation. It covers key concepts, common open-source video generation models, and delves into control mechanisms within diffusion models. Methods are categorized based on the types of control signals used, including single-condition, multi-condition, and universal controllable generation. The goal is to offer a clear understanding of the field's progress and future directions.

Correspondence Problem

This program focuses on the fundamental task of finding correspondences between parts of a scene in different images, a core problem in computer vision. It covers techniques for detecting distinctive local features in images that are invariant to geometric and photometric transformations. The program then explores how to establish tentative matches between these features and how to use robust algorithms like RANSAC to identify and verify accurate correspondences, filtering out incorrect ones based on a geometric model of the scene. The curriculum involves implementing these components from scratch using libraries like PyTorch and NumPy. Key areas include feature detection methods such as Harris detectors, automatic scale estimation using scale-space representations, computing local invariant descriptions, and establishing tentative correspondences followed by RANSAC for verification. The goal is to build a solid understanding of the underlying principles and practical implementation of correspondence finding in computer vision.
