CompAdapt: Adaptable Composite Motion Modeling for Physics-Consistent Text-to-Video Generation

While diffusion-based text-to-video (T2V) models have demonstrated impressive capability in generating realistic and temporally coherent videos, they often fail to respect fundamental physical dynamics. Although recent physics-constrained methods incorporate explicit dynamics priors to improve physical plausibility, they remain limited to simple single-type motions, depend on manually specified parameters, and struggle to generalize to unseen physical laws. In this work, we propose CompAdapt, a physics-consistent T2V framework for adaptable generation across complex real-world scenarios. It extends neural dynamics modeling beyond single-type motions to encompass composite physical behaviors, including coupled motions, multi-stage transitions, and multi-object collisions. Furthermore, CompAdapt translates natural language prompts into structured physical semantics, enabling end-to-end specification of motion types, temporal relations, and initial physical parameters. To generalize to novel physical environments, CompAdapt introduces dynamics-aware prior matching, achieving one-shot adaptation without retraining the core dynamics module. In addition, a physics-aware latent feature fusion module improves visual fidelity under fast and complex motion. Experiments on physics-focused T2V benchmarks demonstrate that CompAdapt improves physical consistency over both general T2V models and physics-constrained baselines, while preserving high visual quality and adaptability to unseen dynamics.
