KVPO: ODE-Native GRPO for Autoregressive Video Alignment via KV Semantic Exploration
Aligning streaming autoregressive (AR) video generators with human preferences is challenging. Existing reinforcement learning methods predominantly rely on noise-based exploration and SDE-based surrogate policies that are mismatched to the deterministic ODE dynamics of distilled AR models, and tend to perturb low-level appearance rather than the high-level semantic storyline progression critical for long-horizon coherence. To address these limitations, we present KVPO, an ODE-native online Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) framework for aligning streaming video generators. For diversity exploration, KVPO introduces a causal-semantic exploration paradigm that relocates the source ...
