4D-fy: Text-to-4D Generation Using Hybrid Score Distillation Sampling

摘要

Recent breakthroughs in text-to-4D generation rely on pre-trained text-to-image and text-to-video models to generate dynamic 3D scenes. However current text-to-4D methods face a three-way tradeoff between the quality of scene appearance 3D structure and motion. For example text-to-image models and their 3D-aware variants are trained on internet-scale image datasets and can be used to produce scenes with realistic appearance and 3D structure---but no motion. Text-to-video models are trained on relatively smaller video datasets and can produce scenes with motion but poorer appearance and 3D structure. While these models have complementary strengths they also have opposing weaknesses making it difficult to combine them in a way that alleviates this three-way tradeoff. Here we introduce hybrid score distillation sampling an alternating optimization procedure that blends supervision signals from multiple pre-trained diffusion models and incorporates benefits of each for high-fidelity text-to-4D generation. Using hybrid SDS we demonstrate synthesis of 4D scenes with compelling appearance 3D structure and motion.
