Is Human Motion a Language without Words?
Wednesday, February 21, 2024
This talk will summarize our recent works on bridging the gap between natural language and 3D human motions. I will first show results on text-to-motion synthesis, i.e., text-conditioned generative models for controllable motion synthesis, with a special focus on compositionality to handle finegrained textual descriptions. Second, I will present results from our text-to-motion retrieval model. The relevant papers are ACTOR, TEMOS, TMR [Petrovich 2021, 2022, 2023] and TEACH, SINC [Athanasiou 2022, 2023].
