This paper presents FluxMem, a training-free framework for efficient streaming video understanding. FluxMem adaptively compresses redundant visual memory through a hierarchical, two-stage design: (1) a Temporal Adjacency Selection (TAS) module removes redundant visual tokens across adjacent frames, and (2) a Spatial Domain Consolidation (SDC) module further merges spatially repetitive regions within each frame into compact representations. To adapt effectively to dynamic scenes, we introduce a self-adaptive token compression mechanism in both TAS and SDC, which automatically determines the compression rate based on intrinsic scene statistics rather than manual tuning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FluxMem achieves new state-of-the-art results on existing online video benchmarks, reaching 76.4 on StreamingBench and 67.2 on OVO-Bench under real-time settings, while reducing latency by 69.9% and peak GPU memory by 34.5% on OVO-Bench. Furthermore, it maintains strong offline performance, achieving 73.1 on MLVU while using 65% fewer visual tokens.

Human preference alignment presents a critical yet underexplored challenge for diffusion models in text-to-3D generation. Existing solutions typically require task-specific fine-tuning, posing significant hurdles in data-scarce 3D domains. To address this, we propose Preference Score Distillation (PSD), an optimization-based framework that leverages pretrained 2D reward models for human-aligned text-to-3D synthesis without 3D training data. Our key insight stems from the incompatibility of pixel-level gradients: due to the absence of noisy samples during reward model training, direct application of 2D reward gradients disturbs the denoising process. Noticing that similar issue occurs in the naive classifier guidance in conditioned diffusion models, we fundamentally rethink preference alignment as a classifier-free guidance (CFG)-style mechanism through our implicit reward model. Furthermore, recognizing that frozen pretrained diffusion models constrain performance, we introduce an adaptive strategy to co-optimize preference scores and negative text embeddings. By incorporating CFG during optimization, online refinement of negative text embeddings dynamically enhances alignment. To our knowledge, we are the first to bridge human preference alignment with CFG theory under score distillation framework. Experiments demonstrate the superiority of PSD in aesthetic metrics, seamless integration with diverse pipelines, and strong extensibility.
