Wasserstein Filtering: A Sample Selection Method for Robust Distribution Learning
Given a dataset where a portion of the samples are contaminated, our goal is to recover the underlying clean population distribution. To this end, we propose Wasserstein Filtering (WF), a novel sample selection framework that discards a fraction of suspicious samples and estimates the target distribution using the empirical measure of the remaining data. The core insight is to select a subset of samples whose empirical distribution maximizes its Wasserstein distance to the fully contaminated empirical distribution, thereby preferentially isolating and removing geometrically influential outlier
From Draft to Draft-Free: One-Step Video Object Removal via Privileged Distillation and Fast Planting
Video object removal is a fundamental yet challenging task in video editing. Despite recent progress, existing methods typically fall into two categories. Traditional approaches based on optical flow or attention mechanisms often introduce noticeable artifacts and yield unnatural results. In contrast, diffusion-based methods improve visual realism but demand multiple denoising steps, limiting their practicality. To address these issues, we propose From-Draft-to-Draft-Free (D2DF), a framework that distills the ability of transforming coarse drafts into refined videos into a one-step video gener
