Wan: Open and Advanced Large-Scale Video Generative ModelsTeam Wan, Ang Wang, Baole Ai et al.
This report presents Wan, a comprehensive and open suite of video foundation models designed to push the boundaries of video generation. Built upon the mainstream diffusion transformer paradigm, Wan achieves significant advancements in generative capabilities through a series of innovations, including our novel VAE, scalable pre-training strategies, large-scale data curation, and automated evaluation metrics. These contributions collectively enhance the model's performance and versatility. Specifically, Wan is characterized by four key features: Leading Performance: The 14B model of Wan, trained on a vast dataset comprising billions of images and videos, demonstrates the scaling laws of video generation with respect to both data and model size. It consistently outperforms the existing open-source models as well as state-of-the-art commercial solutions across multiple internal and external benchmarks, demonstrating a clear and significant performance superiority. Comprehensiveness: Wan offers two capable models, i.e., 1.3B and 14B parameters, for efficiency and effectiveness respectively. It also covers multiple downstream applications, including image-to-video, instruction-guided video editing, and personal video generation, encompassing up to eight tasks. Consumer-Grade Efficiency: The 1.3B model demonstrates exceptional resource efficiency, requiring only 8.19 GB VRAM, making it compatible with a wide range of consumer-grade GPUs. Openness: We open-source the entire series of Wan, including source code and all models, with the goal of fostering the growth of the video generation community. This openness seeks to significantly expand the creative possibilities of video production in the industry and provide academia with high-quality video foundation models. All the code and models are available at https://github.com/Wan-Video/Wan2.1.
Graph Diffusion Policy OptimizationYijing Liu, Chao Du, Tianyu Pang et al. · tsinghua
Recent research has made significant progress in optimizing diffusion models for downstream objectives, which is an important pursuit in fields such as graph generation for drug design. However, directly applying these models to graph presents challenges, resulting in suboptimal performance. This paper introduces graph diffusion policy optimization (GDPO), a novel approach to optimize graph diffusion models for arbitrary (e.g., non-differentiable) objectives using reinforcement learning. GDPO is based on an eager policy gradient tailored for graph diffusion models, developed through meticulous analysis and promising improved performance. Experimental results show that GDPO achieves state-of-the-art performance in various graph generation tasks with complex and diverse objectives. Code is available at https://github.com/sail-sg/GDPO.

GraphFederator: Federated Visual Analysis for Multi-party GraphsDongming Han, Wei Chen, Rusheng Pan et al.
This paper presents GraphFederator, a novel approach to construct joint representations of multi-party graphs and supports privacy-preserving visual analysis of graphs. Inspired by the concept of federated learning, we reformulate the analysis of multi-party graphs into a decentralization process. The new federation framework consists of a shared module that is responsible for joint modeling and analysis, and a set of local modules that run on respective graph data. Specifically, we propose a federated graph representation model (FGRM) that is learned from encrypted characteristics of multi-party graphs in local modules. We also design multiple visualization views for joint visualization, exploration, and analysis of multi-party graphs. Experimental results with two datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
