  • 根据噪声变化速率自动切换高低阈值,智能决定何时缓存
  • 在保持画质几乎不变的前提下,最高提升2.16倍生成速度
  • 无需重训练,可无缝接入现有缓存方法,适合加速视频生成研发

视频扩散模型虽能生成高质量视频,但因逐步去噪过程缓慢。现有基于缓存的加速方法通过复用中间输出来提速,如TeaCache、EasyCache和DiCache等动态方法,通过累积漂移信号,在漂移低于固定阈值τ时跳过昂贵的模型计算。然而,固定阈值带来速度与质量的权衡:提高阈值加速但降质,降低则保质但慢。本文揭示该权衡非本质,而是因τ恒定所致。我们识别出关键时间步——漂移变化剧烈的时刻,并发现仅在这些步骤使用低阈值,其余时间激进缓存,即可在大幅提速的同时保留近似保守策略的画质。基于此,提出ACID:一个轻量、免训练的封装模块,通过监测现有方法漂移信号的变化率,动态切换高低阈值。该方法不依赖信号类型,且模块化设计,可直接集成至任意动态缓存方法中,无需修改核心机制。在三个缓存方法(TeaCache、EasyCache、DiCache)和三个开源视频扩散模型(HunyuanVideo、Wan 2.1、CogVideoX)上评估,ACID始终超越固定阈值方案的性能边界。尤其在TeaCache与HunyuanVideo组合下,相比无缓存基线最高提速2.16倍,相较保守固定阈值再提速38%,画质损失极小(PSNR<0.3 dB,SSIM<0.01,LPIPS<0.01)。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Video diffusion models produce high-quality generations but remain slow at inference due to their sequential denoising procedure. Caching-based acceleration methods address this by reusing intermediate model outputs: leading dynamic approaches such as TeaCache, EasyCache, and DiCache accumulate a drift signal and skip expensive model evaluations when accumulated drift stays below a fixed threshold $τ$. This threshold controls an apparent tradeoff - raising it yields faster generation at the cost of visual quality, while lowering it preserves quality but sacrifices speed. We show this tradeoff is not fundamental; it is an artifact of holding $τ$ constant throughout denoising. We identify the existence of critical steps - timesteps where the drift signal changes rapidly - and show that applying a low threshold selectively at these steps while caching aggressively elsewhere recovers most of the quality of conservative caching at substantially higher inference speeds. Building on this insight, we propose ACID, a lightweight, training-free wrapper that monitors the rate of change of each method's existing drift signal to dynamically switch between a low and a high threshold. ACID is signal-agnostic and modular: it requires no retraining and plugs directly into existing dynamic caching methods without modifying their core mechanisms. Evaluated across three caching methods (TeaCache, EasyCache, DiCache) and three open-source video diffusion models (HunyuanVideo, Wan 2.1, CogVideoX), ACID consistently expands the Pareto frontier of visual quality versus inference speed beyond what any fixed threshold achieves. In particular, on TeaCache and HunyuanVideo, ACID achieves up to 2.16x speedup over the no-caching baseline, and up to 38% additional speedup over the conservative fixed-threshold baseline with negligible (<0.3 dB PSNR, <0.01 SSIM, <0.01 LPIPS) quality degradation.
