Background Consistency

Background Consistency measures temporal stability of scene appearance in a generated video. Large shifts in background layout, texture, or global scene context between adjacent frames lower the score.

For each decoded frame xix_i, CLIP ViT-B/32 extracts a normalized embedding fif_i. The metric averages cosine similarity over consecutive frame pairs:

Sbg=1N−1∑i=1N−1cos⁡(fi,fi+1)(1)S_{\mathrm{bg}} = \frac{1}{N-1}\sum_{i=1}^{N-1}\cos(f_i, f_{i+1}) \tag{1}

where NN is the number of evaluated frames and cos⁡(⋅,⋅)\cos(\cdot,\cdot) is cosine similarity between L2-normalized CLIP image features. WorldAtlas clamps SbgS_{\mathrm{bg}} to [0,1][0, 1]; higher values indicate more stable backgrounds. The metric is prediction-only and requires at least two frames.
