arXiv Demo Page zhihu

😊 Please give us a star ⭐ to support us for continous update 😊

News

  • 2024.10.14 🔥 We release the Demo page.
  • 2024.10.18 🔥 We release the paper DAWN.
  • 2024.10.21 🔥 We update the Chinese introduction 知乎.

TODO list:

  • release the inference code
  • release the pretrained model of 128*128
  • release the pretrained model of 256*256
  • in progress ...

Equipment Requirements

With our VRAM-oriented optimized code, the maximum length of video that can be generated is linearly related to the size of the GPU VRAM. Larger VRAM produce longer videos.

  • To generate 128*128 video, we recommend using a GPU with 12GB or more VRAM. This can at least generate video of approximately 400 frames.
  • To generate 256*256 video, we recommend using a GPU with 24GB or more VRAM. This can at least generate video of approximately 200 frames.

PS: Although optimized code can improve VRAM utilization, it currently sacrifices inference speed due to incomplete optimization of local attention. We are actively working on this issue, and if you have a better solution, we welcome your PR. If you wish to achieve faster inference speeds, you can use unoptimized code, but this will increase VRAM usage (O(n²) space complexity).
