TL;DR: We present Cavia, the first framework that enables users to generate multiple videos of the same scene with precise control over camera motion, while simultaneously preserving object motion.

Abstract: In recent years there have been remarkable breakthroughs in image-to-video generation. However, the 3D consistency and camera controllability of generated frames have remained unsolved. Recent studies have attempted to incorporate camera control into the generation process, but their results are often limited to simple trajectories or lack the ability to generate consistent videos from multiple distinct camera paths for the same scene. To address these limitations, we introduce Cavia, a novel framework for camera-controllable, multi-view video generation, capable of converting an input image into multiple spatiotemporally consistent videos. Our framework extends the spatial and temporal attention modules into view-integrated attention modules, improving both viewpoint and temporal consistency. This flexible design allows for joint training with diverse curated data sources, including scene-level static videos, object-level synthetic multi-view dynamic videos, and real-world monocular dynamic videos. To the best of our knowledge, Cavia is the first framework that enables users to generate multiple videos of the same scene with precise control over camera motion, while simultaneously preserving object motion. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Cavia surpasses state-of-the-art methods in terms of geometric consistency and perceptual quality.

Lay Summary: We present Cavia, the first framework that enables users to generate multiple videos of the same scene with precise control over camera motion, while simultaneously preserving object motion. Cavia enables improved 3D consistency and camera controllability of generated videos.
