Corrected 2026-10-23 - see C3-B588-07; the original statements below are kept for history and are superseded where the correction says so. Partially verified: the curator re-read none of the cited sources; S1, S11, S3, S4, S13, S14, S15, S16, S17, S5, S6, S8 rest on the producer's pinned reading. Reported per-asset cost spans about four to five orders of magnitude, all author-measured on different hardware. Seconds: L4GM (0.3 s per 16-frame pass plus about 2 s for views, RTX 4080 Super). Minutes: DreamGaussian4D (6.5-10 min, 80 GB A100), Diffusion4D (8 min, paper), SV4D (15-20 min fitting) and SV4D 2.0 (1 min generation + 21 min fitting, up to 30 GB, H100). Hours: Consistent4D (about 2-2.5 h, V100), MAV3D (about 6.5 h on 8 A100) and 4D-fy (about 23 h on one 80 GB A100). Clips are short: 12-32 frames per pass depending on the system (12, 14, 16, 21, 24, 32), time axes are continuous for the NeRF/neural-field systems, and no passage read states output duration in seconds for text-to-4...

View coverage is object-centric: SV4D/2.0 use elevation and azimuth cameras and fail on strong perspective; L4GM assumes 0 degree input elevation.

Curator correction 2026-10-23 (discovery audit record C3-B588-07; sources re-fetched 2026-10-23, excerpts re-located by curator GET): Correction (unsupported by the cited source). C3-B168-W33-03 and W33-04 give Diffusion4D an '8 minutes' text-to-4D time and MAV3D about 6.5 hours on 8 A100. In the cited arXiv pages (Diffusion4D 2405.16645v1, MAV3D 2301.11280v1) the text extracted says only that Diffusion4D generates 4D assets 'within just several minutes' and contains no A100 or hours figure for MAV3D. The 4D-fy time is supported: the three optimisation stages take roughly 2, 2 and 19 hours (23 hours total) on an A100 with about 80 GB of VRAM. Treat '8 minutes' and '6.5 h on 8 A100' as unverified (tables or later versions may carry them). Version/date. Fetched 2026-10-23.
