SIFT: Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning for Physically Plausible Motion in Video Diffusion Models
Recent advances in video diffusion models have greatly improved visual fidelity, yet their generated motions often violate physical plausibility. We observe a common kinematic failure, "motion entanglement", the unintended coupling of independent motion sources, such as camera movement and object motion. We identify that this issue stems from data bias and the reconstruction-based training design of diffusion models. Training on noisy videos that still retain coarse motion cues inadvertently encourages the model to replicate existing motion without an incentive to learn how to model kinematically-grounded motions. To address this, we propose a Self-Imagination Fine-Tuning (SIFT) paradigm,...
