Abstract
Leveraging the natural spatiotemporal energy decay in video diffusion offers a path to efficiency, yet relying solely on rigid static masks risks losing critical long-range information in complex dynamics. To address this issue, we propose \textbf{DynamicRad}, a unified sparse-attention paradigm that grounds adaptive selection within a radial locality prior. DynamicRad introduces a \textbf{dual-mode} strategy: \textit{static-ratio} for speed-optimized execution and \textit{dynamic-threshold} for quality-first filtering. To ensure robustness without online search overhead, we integrate an offline Bayesian Optimization (BO) pipeline coupled with a \textbf{semantic motion router}. This lightweight projection module maps prompt embeddings to optimal sparsity regimes with \textbf{minimal runtime overhead}. Unlike online profiling methods, our offline BO optimizes attention reconstruction error (MSE) on a physics-based proxy task, ensuring rapid convergence. Experiments on HunyuanVideo and Wan2.1-14B demonstrate that DynamicRad pushes the efficiency--quality Pareto frontier, achieving \textbf{1.7\times--2.5\times inference speedups} with \textbf{over 80\% effective sparsity}. In some long-sequence settings, the dynamic mode even matches or exceeds the dense baseline, while mask-aware LoRA further improves long-horizon coherence.
