MotionPhys: Detecting AI-Generated Videos via Physical Consistency of Optical-Flow Trajectories

Modern AI video generation models can produce videos with high visual fidelity and seemingly smooth temporal transitions. However, visual realism does not necessarily imply physical motion consistency. Existing generative models mainly optimize distribution matching in pixel or latent spaces, without explicitly enforcing real-world constraints such as inertia, continuous forces, and trajectory geometry. Our experiments show that AI-generated videos remain visually plausible over short sequences of consecutive frames, yet fail to preserve physical motion consistency throughout a complete object action, resulting in systematic statistical discrepancies in their motion trajectories. Based on this observation, we introduce MotionPhys, a lightweight and interpretable framework that treats sparse motion trajectories as physical evidence rather than relying on appearance artifacts or generator-specific traces. By modeling the geometric evolution of trajectories across multiple temporal scales, MotionPhys reveals subtle motion inconsistencies that are difficult to capture with conventional visual cues and transforms them into a compact representation for efficient detection. Experiments on multiple datasets show that MotionPhys can effectively detect physical inconsistencies in generated videos and generalizes well across different video generators.

EventVAD: Training-Free Event-Aware Video Anomaly Detection

Video Anomaly Detection~(VAD) focuses on identifying anomalies within videos. Supervised methods require an amount of in-domain training data and often struggle to generalize to unseen anomalies. In contrast, training-free methods leverage the intrinsic world knowledge of large language models (LLMs) to detect anomalies but face challenges in localizing fine-grained visual transitions and diverse events. Therefore, we propose EventVAD, an event-aware video anomaly detection framework that combines tailored dynamic graph architectures and multimodal LLMs through temporal-event reasoning. Specifically, EventVAD first employs dynamic spatiotemporal graph modeling with time-decay constraints to capture event-aware video features. Then, it performs adaptive noise filtering and uses signal ratio thresholding to detect event boundaries via unsupervised statistical features. The statistical boundary detection module reduces the complexity of processing long videos for MLLMs and improves their temporal reasoning through event consistency. Finally, it utilizes a hierarchical prompting strategy to guide MLLMs in performing reasoning before determining final decisions. We conducted extensive experiments on the UCF-Crime and XD-Violence datasets. The results demonstrate that EventVAD with a 7B MLLM achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) in training-free settings, outperforming strong baselines that use 7B or larger MLLMs.
