DiT as Real-Time Rerenderer: Streaming Video Stylization with Autoregressive Diffusion TransformerHengye Lyu, Zisu Li, Yue Hong et al.
Recent advances in video generation models has significantly accelerated video generation and related downstream tasks. Among these, video stylization holds important research value in areas such as immersive applications and artistic creation, attracting widespread attention. However, existing diffusion-based video stylization methods struggle to maintain stability and consistency when processing long videos, and their high computational cost and multi-step denoising make them difficult to apply in practical scenarios. In this work, we propose RTR-DiT (DiT as Real-Time Rerenderer), a steaming video stylization framework built upon Diffusion Transformer. We first fine-tune a bidirectional teacher model on a curated video stylization dataset, supporting both text-guided and reference-guided video stylization tasks, and subsequently distill it into a few-step autoregressive model via post-training with Self Forcing and Distribution Matching Distillation. Furthermore, we propose a reference-preserving KV cache update strategy that not only enables stable and consistent processing of long videos, but also supports real-time switching between text prompts and reference images. Experimental results show that RTR-DiT outperforms existing methods in both text-guided and reference-guided video stylization tasks, in terms of quantitative metrics and visual quality, and demonstrates excellent performance in real-time long video stylization and interactive style-switching applications.

SpriteHand: Real-Time Versatile Hand-Object Interaction with Autoregressive Video GenerationZisu Li, Hengye Lyu, Jiaxin Shi et al.
Modeling and synthesizing complex hand-object interactions remains a significant challenge, even for state-of-the-art physics engines. Conventional simulation-based approaches rely on explicitly defined rigid object models and pre-scripted hand gestures, making them inadequate for capturing dynamic interactions with non-rigid or articulated entities such as deformable fabrics, elastic materials, hinge-based structures, furry surfaces, or even living creatures. In this paper, we present SpriteHand, an autoregressive video generation framework for real-time synthesis of versatile hand-object interaction videos across a wide range of object types and motion patterns. SpriteHand takes as input a static object image and a video stream in which the hands are imagined to interact with the virtual object embedded in a real-world scene, and generates corresponding hand-object interaction effects in real time. Our model employs a causal inference architecture for autoregressive generation and leverages a hybrid post-training approach to enhance visual realism and temporal coherence. Our 1.3B model supports real-time streaming generation at around 18 FPS and 640x368 resolution, with an approximate 150 ms latency on a single NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU, and more than a minute of continuous output. Experiments demonstrate superior visual quality, physical plausibility, and interaction fidelity compared to both generative and engine-based baselines.

SwarmSys: Decentralized Swarm-Inspired Agents for Scalable and Adaptive ReasoningRuohao Li, Hongjun Liu, Leyi Zhao et al.
Large language model (LLM) agents have shown remarkable reasoning abilities. However, existing multi-agent frameworks often rely on fixed roles or centralized control, limiting scalability and adaptability in long-horizon reasoning. We introduce SwarmSys, a closed-loop framework for distributed multi-agent reasoning inspired by swarm intelligence. Coordination in SwarmSys emerges through iterative interactions among three specialized roles, Explorers, Workers, and Validators, that continuously cycle through exploration, exploitation, and validation. To enable scalable and adaptive collaboration, we integrate adaptive agent and event profiles, embedding-based probabilistic matching, and a pheromone-inspired reinforcement mechanism, supporting dynamic task allocation and self-organizing convergence without global supervision. Across symbolic reasoning, research synthesis, and scientific programming tasks, SwarmSys consistently outperforms baselines, improving both accuracy and reasoning stability. These findings highlight swarm-inspired coordination as a promising paradigm for scalable, robust, and adaptive multi-agent reasoning, suggesting that coordination scaling may rival model scaling in advancing LLM intelligence.
