The availability of large-scale multimodal datasets and advancements in diffusion models have greatly accelerated progress in 4D content generation. Previous approaches relied on multiple image or video diffusion models for optimization, but faced challenges such as slow speeds and multi-view inconsistency. To address these issues, we propose the Diffusion4D framework for efficient and scalable 4D content generation. One of the primary challenges is the scarcity of large-scale multi-view consistent 4D datasets, hindering high-quality content generation. We curate a dataset from existing 3D data to overcome this issue. Our framework integrates spatial and temporal consistency into a single network for enhanced efficiency and consistency in 4D generation. Additionally, we introduce classifier-free guidance to enhance dynamics during sampling. Through explicit 4D construction using Gaussian splatting representations with photometric losses in a coarse-to-fine manner, we swiftly generate high-fidelity and diverse 4D assets within minutes. Our method surpasses prior techniques in terms of efficiency and geometry consistency across various modalities. In summary, our contributions lie in addressing key challenges through the development of the Diffusion4D framework for efficient and consistent generation of high-quality 4D content.

Abstract: The availability of large-scale multimodal datasets and advancements in diffusion models have significantly accelerated progress in 4D content generation. Most prior approaches rely on multiple image or video diffusion models, utilizing score distillation sampling for optimization or generating pseudo novel views for direct supervision. However, these methods are hindered by slow optimization speeds and multi-view inconsistency issues. Spatial and temporal consistency in 4D geometry has been extensively explored respectively in 3D-aware diffusion models and traditional monocular video diffusion models. Building on this foundation, we propose a strategy to migrate the temporal consistency in video diffusion models to the spatial-temporal consistency required for 4D generation. Specifically, we present a novel framework, \textbf{Diffusion4D}, for efficient and scalable 4D content generation. Leveraging a meticulously curated dynamic 3D dataset, we develop a 4D-aware video diffusion model capable of synthesizing orbital views of dynamic 3D assets. To control the dynamic strength of these assets, we introduce a 3D-to-4D motion magnitude metric as guidance. Additionally, we propose a novel motion magnitude reconstruction loss and 3D-aware classifier-free guidance to refine the learning and generation of motion dynamics. After obtaining orbital views of the 4D asset, we perform explicit 4D construction with Gaussian splatting in a coarse-to-fine manner. The synthesized multi-view consistent 4D image set enables us to swiftly generate high-fidelity and diverse 4D assets within just several minutes. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method surpasses prior state-of-the-art techniques in terms of generation efficiency and 4D geometry consistency across various prompt modalities.
