InteractiveAvatar: Real-Time Streaming Video Generation for Consistent and Intent-Aware Avatars

Quanyue Song, Yishan He, Yanfei Zhang et al.

Recent diffusion-based models have enabled realistic audio-driven avatar generation in real-time streaming. However, existing approaches struggle to maintain visual temporal consistency and fail to explicitly perceive user intent in complex interactive streaming scenarios. To address these challenges, we propose InteractiveAvatar, a real-time infinite-streaming video generation framework that supports visually consistent avatar video generation and intent-aware interactions. With autoregressive distillation, InteractiveAvatar achieves real-time str-eaming generation of human avatars over arbitrarily long durations. For visual consistency, we introduce a Long-Short Visual Memory (LSVM) mechanism that flexibly compresses historical visual information into compact tokens, preserving both short-range coherence and long-term consistency. To generate avatars with speeches and actions aligned with user intent, we propose a Reasoning-Reaction Module (RRM), which incorporates a State-Cycling strategy and a Cache-Switching mechanism. Extensive experimental results over diverse scenarios demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art visual consistency in long-duration generation, while enabling complex user-avatar interaction in real time.

Prefix-Guided On-Policy Distillation: Mining Golden Trajectories from Rollouts

Qingfei Zhao, Huan Song, Shuyu Tian et al.

On-policy distillation (OPD) improves reasoning models by applying dense teacher supervision on student-sampled trajectories. However, scaling OPD to long-horizon mathematical reasoning exposes a reliability and efficiency problem: standard OPD assigns every sampled candidate the same long rollout budget, even though some trajectories may quickly become weakly aligned with the teacher and provide less useful supervision. Prior analyses suggest that successful OPD depends on local teacher-student compatibility, which can be measured by top-k overlap on student-visited prefixes. When this overlap is low, continuing to generate or train on long suffixes may waste computation and introduce noisy learning signal. To address this, we introduce Prefix-Guided On-Policy Distillation (PG-OPD), a simple rollout-allocation framework that uses fixed-length prefixes to estimate trajectory value before expensive long-horizon generation. PG-OPD first decodes every sampled candidate to the same prefix length, computes teacher-student top-k overlap within an early probe window of that prefix, and selectively continues high-overlap candidates to a fixed long length. Low-overlap candidates stop at the fixed prefix, avoiding unnecessary suffix generation. Across diverse teacher-student combinations on AMC, AIME, and HMMT benchmarks, PG-OPD improves average accuracy by up to 4.80 points while reducing training time by up to 2.46x. These results suggest that prefix-level compatibility provides a practical signal for directing OPD computation toward trajectories that remain learnable from the teacher.

TeleStyle V2: Beyond Content-Preserving Style Transfer with Self-Distillation and Distribution-Matching-Distillation

Shiwen Zhang, Yifan Xu, Haibin Huang et al.

Given a content reference and a style reference, content-preserving style transfer requires the model to generate stylized outputs with content and style consistency. We introduced TeleStyle V1 to tackle this problem. However, TeleStyle V1 is trained with photorealistic content reference and artistic style reference, which makes it incapable to cope with artistic content reference and realistic style reference in most cases. In this paper, we designed a Self-Distillation data synthesis strategy to construct such triplets from TeleStyle V1. Trained with such self-distilled triplets, our TeleStyle V2 supports Content-Style references in the forms of Realistic-and-Realistic (RnR), Realistic-and-Stylized (RnS), Stylized-and-Realistic (SnR), Stylized-and-Stylized (SnS). In addition, we found Distribution Matching Distillation could preserve the general text-guided image editing capability of the foundation model and fix the content consistency degradation caused by SFT process. Through quantitative evaluations, our TeleStyleV2-QIE-2509-DMD performs at least on par with Qwen-Image-Edit-2509-DMD, demonstrating strong general image editing skills beyond content-preserving style transfer. We observed the content/style reference order confusion problem in TeleStyle V1 and further introduced prompt enhancer to solve it. TeleStyle V2 uses Qwen-Image-Edit's VLM encoder, Qwen2.5-VL-7B, to generate content prompt and style prompt for free. TeleStyle V2 could achieve comparable style transfer performance with state-of-the-art commercial model, gemini-3-pro-image-preview.
