All modalities are equal, but video is more equal: Closing the Cross-Attention Gap in Joint Video Generation
RecCAR regularizes cross-attention so companion modalities better constrain joint video generation.
Joint multimodal diffusion transformers show a reciprocal correspondence gap: companion modalities attend strongly to video, but video is only weakly constrained in return. RecCAR is a KL regularizer that treats video-to-modality attention as a fixed reference and aligns the weaker modality-to-video direction toward it. Across joint video-motion and video-audio generation, the Human Anatomy score rises from 0.69 to 0.75 and audio-video desynchronization falls from 0.804 to 0.752.
