## Abstract (arXiv)

Diffusion models, particularly Diffusion Transformers, achieve strong image and video generation quality but remain expensive at inference time due to repeated denoiser evaluations. Feature caching offers a deployment-friendly acceleration strategy by reusing or predicting intermediate representations without retraining the generator or modifying the sampler. However, existing cache-then-forecast methods often rely on Taylor-style finite-difference extrapolation, which can become unstable over longer cache intervals, and typically predict local module outputs whose errors may accumulate through subsequent denoiser blocks. We propose BeziCast, a training-free diffusion acceleration framework that forecasts output-proximal denoising representations using low-order B'ezier trajectories. BeziCast estimates B'ezier control points via Tikhonov-stabilized fitting, providing a smooth, capacity-controlled temporal parameterization that avoids explicit high-order derivative estimation and decouples trajectory capacity from cache-query density. To moderate aggressive extrapolation, we further derive equivalent forecasting weights and introduce a convex-hull-inspired guardrail that detects high-risk predictions and softly pulls them toward a conservative simplex-projected estimate. Extensive evaluations across advanced image and video diffusion models demonstrate the effectiveness of BeziCast. In particular, BeziCast accelerates FLUX.1 by up to (4.79×) and HunyuanVideo by up to (4.11×), while preserving substantially better generation quality than competing acceleration baselines.
