STyMo: Fast and Controllable Few-Shot Motion Style Transfer

STyMo is a few‑shot motion style transfer method that learns from only seconds of paired data and trains in one to two minutes. It decomposes style into a static posture component and a temporal dynamics component, allowing runtime adjustment of posture intensity, temporal exaggeration, and per‑body‑region style. The approach includes a stylizability gate to avoid artifacts on out‑of‑distribution motions and supports an iterative authoring workflow, with results shown across a range of motion styles and a released dataset for future research.

LUNA: Learning Universal 3D Human Animation Beyond Skinning

arXiv:2606. 31981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Creating photorealistic, animatable 3D human avatars from monocular images still largely depends on Linear Blend Skinning (LBS) and parametric body models, which constrain expressivity and often introduce artifacts due to imperfect fitting.

EditaLive! Unified Character Video Editing for Live Streaming

EditaLive! is a new real‑time framework for character video editing in live streaming, built on a pretrained image animation model (Wan‑Animate) that separates appearance from motion. It uses the CharEdit‑50K dataset for reference‑frame editing and video reconstruction, and adapts the model from offline bidirectional to causal streaming generation. A self‑rollout distillation strategy compresses the model into a two‑step sampler, employing fixed RoPE, alignment forcing, and first‑frame preserved sparse attention to reduce appearance drift and achieve low‑latency inference while preserving facial expressions.

OmniDance: Multimodal Driven Dance Video Generation with Large-scale Internet Data

Music-driven dance video generation aims to synthesize expressive human motion that is temporally aligned with music while maintaining high visual fidelity. Despite recent progress, existing methods still face two key limitations: the lack of large-scale, high-quality dance video datasets, and the absence of principled frameworks for integrating music as a complementary conditioning signal into Video Generation Foundation Models.
