In LiDAR-based 3D detection, history point clouds contain rich temporal information helpful for future prediction. In the same way, history detections should contribute to future detections. In this paper, we propose a detection enhancement method, namely FrameFusion, which improves 3D object detection results by fusing history frames. In FrameFusion, we ''forward'' history frames to the current frame and apply weighted Non-Maximum-Suppression on dense bounding boxes to obtain a fused frame with merged boxes. To ''forward'' frames, we use vehicle motion models to estimate the future pose of the bounding boxes. However, the commonly used constant velocity model fails naturally on turning vehicles, so we explore two vehicle motion models to address this issue. On Waymo Open Dataset, our FrameFusion method consistently improves the performance of various 3D detectors by about $2$ vehicle level 2 APH with negligible latency and slightly enhances the performance of the temporal fusion method MPPNet. We also conduct extensive experiments on motion model selection.

Diffusion models have made significant advances in generating high-quality images, but their application to video generation has remained challenging due to the complexity of temporal motion. Zero-shot video editing offers a solution by utilizing pre-trained image diffusion models to translate source videos into new ones. Nevertheless, existing methods struggle to maintain strict temporal consistency and efficient memory consumption. In this work, we propose a novel approach to enhance temporal consistency in generated videos by merging self-attention tokens across frames. By aligning and compressing temporally redundant tokens across frames, our method improves temporal coherence and reduces memory consumption in self-attention computations. The merging strategy matches and aligns tokens according to the temporal correspondence between frames, facilitating natural temporal consistency in generated video frames. To manage the complexity of video processing, we divide videos into chunks and develop intra-chunk local token merging and inter-chunk global token merging, ensuring both short-term video continuity and long-term content consistency. Our video editing approach seamlessly extends the advancements in image editing to video editing, rendering favorable results in temporal consistency over state-of-the-art methods.
