The pith

MotionAdapter transfers motions between videos in DiT diffusion models by isolating motion fields from cross-frame attention and adapting them to target content with DINO correspondences.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The paper aims to make motion transfer practical in high-quality video generation by separating motion from appearance details. It extracts motion fields directly from the cross-frame attention patterns inside the 3D full-attention layers of diffusion transformers. A separate module then uses DINO feature matches to rearrange those fields so they align with the objects and scenes in the target video. If this works, users can apply complicated reference motions such as zooming or multi-object compositions to new videos while keeping the target's look and meaning unchanged. This addresses a key limitation in current video diffusion systems where motion control often leaks into or distorts appearance.

Core claim

MotionAdapter isolates motion by analyzing cross-frame attention within 3D full-attention modules to extract attention-derived motion fields. To bridge the semantic gap between reference and target videos, it introduces a DINO-guided motion customization module that rearranges and refines motion fields based on content correspondences. The customized motion field then guides the DiT denoising process so the output inherits the reference motion while preserving target appearance and semantics.

What carries the argument

DINO-guided motion customization module that rearranges attention-derived motion fields according to content correspondences between videos.

If this is right

  • The method supports complex motion transfer and editing operations such as zooming in or out and object composition.
  • Generated videos inherit reference motion patterns while fully preserving target appearance and semantics.
  • It achieves stronger qualitative and quantitative results than prior motion transfer approaches.
  • The framework works directly inside existing DiT-based video diffusion models without requiring retraining.

Where Pith is reading between the lines

These are editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • The same attention-isolation step could let users mix motion cues from several short clips into one longer generated sequence.
  • If the disentanglement holds for longer clips, the approach might reduce reliance on paired training data for motion control.
  • Similar customization could be tested on other attention-based generators beyond video, such as image or 3D diffusion models.

Load-bearing premise

Cross-frame attention in the 3D full-attention modules cleanly separates motion from appearance without leakage, and DINO correspondences reliably match content across arbitrary video pairs.

What would settle it

Apply the method to a reference video of a person walking and a target video of a static building with no shared objects, then check whether the output shows walking motion overlaid on the unchanged building without semantic distortions or motion artifacts.

Recent advances in diffusion-based text-to-video models, particularly those built on the diffusion transformer architecture, have achieved remarkable progress in generating high-quality and temporally coherent videos. However, transferring complex motions between videos remains challenging. In this work, we present MotionAdapter, a content-aware motion transfer framework that enables robust and semantically aligned motion transfer within DiT-based video diffusion models. Our key insight is that effective motion transfer requires 1) explicit disentanglement of motion from appearance and 2) adaptive customization of motion to target content. MotionAdapter first isolates motion by analyzing cross-frame attention within 3D full-attention modules to extract attention-derived motion fields. To bridge the semantic gap between reference and target videos, we further introduce a DINO-guided motion customization module that rearranges and refines motion fields based on content correspondences. The customized motion field is then used to guide the DiT denoising process, ensuring that the synthesized video inherits the reference motion while preserving target appearance and semantics. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MotionAdapter outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations. Moreover, MotionAdapter naturely support complex motion transfer and motion editing tasks such as zooming in/out and composition.

Referee Report

2 major / 2 minor

Summary. The manuscript introduces MotionAdapter, a content-aware motion transfer framework for DiT-based video diffusion models. It isolates motion by analyzing cross-frame attention maps within 3D full-attention modules to derive motion fields, then applies a DINO-guided customization module to rearrange those fields according to semantic correspondences between reference and target videos. The adapted motion field is injected to guide the denoising process, with the claim that this yields robust, semantically aligned transfer while preserving target appearance. The paper asserts outperformance over state-of-the-art methods on both qualitative and quantitative metrics and native support for complex operations such as zoom and composition.

Significance. If the disentanglement and customization steps prove reliable, the approach would supply a lightweight, training-free adapter for existing DiT video models, enabling practical motion transfer and editing without full model retraining. The integration of attention-derived motion fields with DINO correspondences is a targeted combination that could generalize to other transformer-based generators.

major comments (2)
  1. [Abstract] Abstract: the central claim that MotionAdapter 'outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations' is unsupported; no metrics, tables, baselines, or error analysis appear anywhere in the manuscript, rendering the performance assertion unverifiable.
  2. [Method] Method description: the premise that cross-frame attention inside 3D full-attention blocks cleanly separates motion from appearance lacks any validation experiment (e.g., appearance-invariant motion extraction test or controlled leakage measurement on pairs differing only in texture/identity). Because the attention jointly operates over spatial tokens and temporal positions, leakage of semantic layout or object identity into the extracted motion fields remains possible and would propagate uncorrected through the subsequent DINO rearrangement step.
minor comments (2)
  1. [Abstract] Abstract: 'naturely' is a typo and should read 'naturally'.
  2. [Abstract] No implementation details, hyper-parameters, or code-release statement are provided, which blocks reproducibility of the claimed results.

  1. Referee: [Abstract] Abstract: the central claim that MotionAdapter 'outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations' is unsupported; no metrics, tables, baselines, or error analysis appear anywhere in the manuscript, rendering the performance assertion unverifiable.

    Authors: We acknowledge that the abstract asserts quantitative outperformance without sufficient supporting material in the current manuscript. Although qualitative results are shown, we agree that explicit metrics, tables, baselines, and error analysis are required. In the revised version we will add a dedicated quantitative evaluation section containing these elements. revision: yes

  2. Referee: [Method] Method description: the premise that cross-frame attention inside 3D full-attention blocks cleanly separates motion from appearance lacks any validation experiment (e.g., appearance-invariant motion extraction test or controlled leakage measurement on pairs differing only in texture/identity). Because the attention jointly operates over spatial tokens and temporal positions, leakage of semantic layout or object identity into the extracted motion fields remains possible and would propagate uncorrected through the subsequent DINO rearrangement step.

    Authors: This concern about potential leakage in the attention-derived motion fields is well-taken. Our design assumes that cross-frame attention primarily encodes temporal dynamics, yet we recognize the need for explicit verification. We will add a new validation experiment in the revised manuscript that measures motion extraction invariance under controlled appearance changes (e.g., texture-altered pairs with identical motion). revision: yes

full rationale

The paper presents MotionAdapter as a framework that extracts motion fields from cross-frame attention in DiT 3D full-attention modules and refines them via an external DINO-guided customization module before guiding denoising. No equations, self-definitions, fitted parameters renamed as predictions, or load-bearing self-citations appear in the provided text. The central claims rely on external pretrained components (DiT attention, DINO) rather than reducing to internal fits or prior author results by construction. The derivation chain remains self-contained against external benchmarks.
