contents Large text-to-video models hold immense potential for a wide range of downstream applications. However, they struggle to accurately depict dynamic object interactions, often resulting in unrealistic movements and frequent violations of real-world physics. One solution inspired by large language models is to align generated outputs with desired outcomes using external feedback. In this work, we investigate the use of feedback to enhance the quality of object dynamics in text-to-video models. We aim to answer a critical question: what types of feedback, paired with which specific self-improvement algorithms, can most effectively overcome movement misalignment and realistic object interactions? We first point out that offline RL-finetuning algorithms for text-to-video models can be equivalent as derived from a unified probabilistic objective. This perspective highlights that there is no algorithmically dominant method in principle; rather, we should care about the property of reward and data. While human feedback is less scalable, vision-language models could notice the video scenes as humans do. We then propose leveraging vision-language models to provide perceptual feedback specifically tailored to object dynamics in videos. Compared to popular video quality metrics measuring alignment or dynamics, the experiments demonstrate that our approach with binary AI feedback drives the most significant improvements in the quality of interaction scenes in video, as confirmed by AI, human, and quality metric evaluations. Notably, we observe substantial gains when using signals from vision language models, particularly in scenarios involving complex interactions between multiple objects and realistic depictions of objects falling.
