Through-The-Mask: Mask-based Motion Trajectories for Image-to-Video Generation

CVPR 2025poster

We consider the task of Image-to-Video (I2V) generation, which involves transforming static images into realistic video sequences based on a textual description. While recent advancements produce photorealistic outputs, they frequently struggle to create videos with accurate and consistent object mo…

VideoJAM: Joint Appearance-Motion Representations for Enhanced Motion Generation in Video Models

ICML 2025oral

Despite tremendous recent progress, generative video models still struggle to capture real-world motion, dynamics, and physics. We show that this limitation arises from the conventional pixel reconstruction objective, which biases models toward appearance fidelity at the expense of motion coherence.…

Emu Edit: Precise Image Editing via Recognition and Generation Tasks

CVPR 2024highlight

Instruction-based image editing holds immense potential for a variety of applications as it enables users to perform any editing operation using a natural language instruction. However current models in this domain often struggle with accurately executing user instructions. We present Emu Edit a mul…

Video Editing via Factorized Diffusion Distillation

ECCV 2024oral

"We introduce , a model that establishes a new state-of-the art in video editing without relying on any supervised video editing data. To develop we separately train an image editing adapter and a video generation adapter, and attach both to the same text-to-image model. Then, to align the adapters…

AudioGen: Textually Guided Audio Generation

ICLR 2023poster

In this work, we tackle the problem of generating audio samples conditioned on descriptive text captions. We propose AudioGen, an auto-regressive generative model, operating on a learnt discrete audio representation, that generates audio samples conditioned on text inputs. The task of text-to-audio…

Make-A-Video: Text-to-Video Generation without Text-Video Data

ICLR 2023poster

We propose Make-A-Video -- an approach for directly translating the tremendous recent progress in Text-to-Image (T2I) generation to Text-to-Video (T2V). Our intuition is simple: learn what the world looks like and how it is described from paired text-image data, and learn how the world moves from un…

SpaText: Spatio-Textual Representation for Controllable Image Generation

CVPR 2023poster

Recent text-to-image diffusion models are able to generate convincing results of unprecedented quality. However, it is nearly impossible to control the shapes of different regions/objects or their layout in a fine-grained fashion. Previous attempts to provide such controls were hindered by their rel…

Text-To-4D Dynamic Scene Generation

ICML 2023poster

We present MAV3D (Make-A-Video3D), a method for generating three-dimensional dynamic scenes from text descriptions. Our approach uses a 4D dynamic Neural Radiance Field (NeRF), which is optimized for scene appearance, density, and motion consistency by querying a Text-to-Video (T2V) diffusion-based…

kNN-Diffusion: Image Generation via Large-Scale Retrieval

ICLR 2023poster

Recent text-to-image models have achieved impressive results. However, since they require large-scale datasets of text-image pairs, it is impractical to train them on new domains where data is scarce or not labeled. In this work, we propose using large-scale retrieval methods, in particular, efficie…

Make-a-Scene: Scene-Based Text-to-Image Generation with Human Priors

ECCV 2022poster

"Recent text-to-image generation methods provide a simple yet exciting conversion capability between text and image domains. While these methods have incrementally improved the generated image fidelity and text relevancy, several pivotal gaps remain unanswered, limiting applicability and quality. We…

Multilingual Text-To-Speech Training Using Cross Language Voice Conversion And Self-Supervised Learning Of Speech Representations

ICASSP 2022accepted

State of the art text-to-speech (TTS) models can generate high fidelity monolingual speech, but it is still challenging to synthesize multilingual speech from the same speaker. One major hurdle is for training data. It’s hard to find speakers who have native proficiency in several languages. One way…

High Fidelity Speech Regeneration with Application to Speech Enhancement

ICASSP 2021accepted

Speech enhancement has seen great improvement in recent years mainly through contributions in denoising, speaker separation, and dereverberation methods that mostly deal with environmental effects on vocal audio. To enhance speech beyond the limitations of the original signal, we take a regeneration…

VoiceLoop: Voice Fitting and Synthesis via a Phonological Loop

ICLR 2018poster

We present a new neural text to speech (TTS) method that is able to transform text to speech in voices that are sampled in the wild. Unlike other systems, our solution is able to deal with unconstrained voice samples and without requiring aligned phonemes or linguistic features. The network architec…

Beyond Frontal Faces: Improving Person Recognition Using Multiple Cues

CVPR 2015poster

We explore the task of recognizing peoples' identities in photo albums in an unconstrained setting. To facilitate this, we introduce the new People In Photo Albums (PIPA) dataset, consisting of over 60000 instances of ~2000 individuals collected from public Flickr photo albums. With only about half…
