Gen4U: Unifying Video Generation and Understanding via Diffusion

arXiv:2607.06856v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prior work suggests that diffusion representations capture low-level geometry but struggle with high-level semantics. We demonstrate that state-of-the-art video diffusion models overcome this limitation. By systematically probing their intermediate activations using recent mutual-kNN alignment metrics, we reveal a highly structured latent space where visual representations evolve across both network depth and noise levels. We show that while modera...
