VQ-VDM: Video Diffusion Models with 3D VQGAN
摘要
In recent years, deep generative models have achieved impressive performance such as realizing image generation that is indistinguishable from real images. Particularly, Latent Diffusion Models, one of the image generation models, have had a significant impact on society. Therefore, video generation is attracting attention as the next modality. However, video generation is more challenging than image generation due to the consideration of temporal consistency and the increase in computational complexity, since a video is a sequence of multiple frames. In this study, we propose a video generation model based on diffusion models employing 3D VQGAN, which is called VQ-VDM. The proposed model is about nine times faster than the Video Diffusion Models which directly generate videos, since our model generates a latent representation which is decoded into a video by a VQGAN decoder. Moreover, our model can generate higher quality video than prior video generation methods exclude state-of-the-art method.
