SparkDiffusion: Mitigating the High-Sparsity Trap --- A Unified Framework for up to $265\times$ Single-GPU Acceleration of Visual Generation

Video diffusion transformers are expensive because attention dominates long spatiotemporal token sequences. We identify the \emph{high-sparsity trap}: at extreme attention sparsity, step-local training losses keep decreasing while terminal generation quality stagnates or degrades. The trap is one of supervision: the do...
