Open domain subject-driven text-to-video (S2V) generation has drawn significant interest in academia and industry. Open domain S2V mainly involves two scenarios: in-domain, which requires retaining the reference subject features as much as possible, and cross-domain, which preserves the intrinsic features of the subject while allowing subject-irrelevant properties to vary flexibly according to the text prompt. Existing methods primarily focus on maximizing subject fidelity in in-domain scenarios, which limits their editability and adaptability in cross-domain scenarios, such as novel styles, semantic combinations, or domain attributes. In this study, we propose that an ideal S2V method should flexibly shuttle between different domains, achieving strong performance in both in-domain and cross-domain scenarios. To this end, we propose DomainShuttle, which could achieve high fidelity and generative flexibility for open domain video personalization. Specifically, we introduce Domain-MoT, which decouples videos and reference features and introduces the domain-aware AdaLN for domain-specific modeling of reference images. We then introduce the Video-Reference DualRoPE scheme, which places reference image tokens and video tokens in separate RoPE spaces to enable precise subject-level spatial modeling, and Cross-Pair Consistent Loss, which aims to extract intrinsic subject features unaffected by irrelevant features. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DomainShuttle achieves significant performance improvements over existing methods, exhibiting high subject fidelity and generative flexibility across diverse open domain application scenarios.
Cooperative perception (CP) requires substantial communication bandwidth to exchange sensing information among connected agents. A variety of compression techniques have been proposed to reduce transmission costs while retaining task-relevant information. However, most existing methods follow a frame-wise compression paradigm, overlooking temporal predictability and repeatedly transmitting information that could be inferred from historical context. To address these limitations, we propose MirrorComm, the first world model-based communication-efficient CP framework. Specifically, mirrored world models at the transmitter and receiver predict the transmitter's current observation from a shared history of its reconstructed observations. The transmitter compares this prediction with its current observation and selectively transmits observation updates to correct prediction errors, reducing repeated transmission of predictable information. Experiments on the OPV2V dataset across two downstream tasks including object detection and semantic segmentation show that MirrorComm reduces communication bandwidth requirements by up to approximately 66-fold while maintaining comparable performance to a state-of-the-art (SOTA) method. Ablation studies further demonstrate the effectiveness of the individual components.
