Abstract: In recent years, video generation has seen significant advancements. However,
challenges still persist in generating complex motions and interactions. To
address these challenges, we introduce ReVision, a plug-and-play framework that
explicitly integrates parameterized 3D physical knowledge into a pretrained
conditional video generation model, significantly enhancing its ability to
generate high-quality videos with complex motion and interactions.
Specifically, ReVision consists of three stages. First, a video diffusion model
is used to generate a coarse video. Next, we extract a set of 2D and 3D
features from the coarse video to construct a 3D object-centric representation,
which is then refined by our proposed parameterized physical prior model to
produce an accurate 3D motion sequence. Finally, this refined motion sequence
is fed back into the same video diffusion model as additional conditioning,
enabling the generation of motion-consistent videos, even in scenarios
involving complex actions and interactions. We validate the effectiveness of
our approach on Stable Video Diffusion, where ReVision significantly improves
motion fidelity and coherence. Remarkably, with only 1.5B parameters, it even
outperforms a state-of-the-art video generation model with over 13B parameters
on complex video generation by a substantial margin. Our results suggest that,
by incorporating 3D physical knowledge, even a relatively small video diffusion
model can generate complex motions and interactions with greater realism and
controllability, offering a promising solution for physically plausible video
generation.
