Retrieve What's Missing: Coverage-Maximizing Retrieval for Consistent Long Video Generation 文章

arXiv:2606.02479v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Maintaining long-term geometric consistency remains challenging for long-horizon autoregressive video generation. Memory-augmented generative models address this by retrieving historical frames, but their effectiveness depends on two key design choices: what 3D-geometric evidence should represent past observations, and how memory frames should be selected from this evidence. Existing methods often rely on camera poses or field-of-view overlap, which are lightweight but too coarse to reason about pixel-wise visibility, or use explicit 3D reconstruction, which provides fine-grained evidence but is costly to maintain over long rollouts. We propose Coverage-Maximizing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (COVRAG), a depth-based memory retrieval framework that uses pretrained 3D priors to construct a target-view coverage map as lightweight 3D memory evidence.
