Multi-Modal Controlled Coherent Motion Generation

The paper introduces MOCO, a diffusion-based framework that generates 3D avatar motions from concurrent multimodal inputs such as speech audio, text descriptions, and trajectory data. MOCO decouples motion generation by independently producing modality-specific motions at each denoising step and then assembling them according to spatial rules, iteratively refining the combined motion. This approach yields coherent, lifelike, and synchronized movements, outperforming existing baselines on a multimodal benchmark.

InteractGesture: Progressive Chunk Guidance for Continuous Streaming Co-Speech Gesture Control

InteractGesture is a model‑agnostic, inference‑time method that enables fine‑grained spatial control of individual joints in continuous streaming co‑speech gesture generation. It guides diffusion sampler latent estimates through a differentiable RVQ‑VAE decoder, backpropagating spatial control gradients to adjust motion latents during sampling. To address chunk‑wise dependency issues in streaming generation, the method introduces Progressive Chunk Guidance, a chunk‑window strategy that keeps an active set of editable chunk latents with staggered delays, allowing spatial constraints to propagate gradients backward across chunk boundaries and reducing boundary inconsistencies.

Vorch-Human: Unified Multi-Task Human-Centric Generation via Long-Horizon Continuation

Vorch-Human is a unified framework for human‑centric audio‑visual generation that handles multiple tasks—animating a person from speech, jointly generating speech and video from a voice reference, and synthesizing a scene from paired appearance and voice references—using a single dual‑stream audio‑video diffusion transformer. The model incorporates clean condition‑audio and condition‑video tokens, per‑token task embeddings, temporal position types, condition masks, and a shared multimodal prompt encoder to express diverse inputs such as driving speech, timbre examples, first frames, and subject images. A two‑level data pipeline supplies the necessary supervision by extracting speech, appearance, and timbre annotations from clips and linking consistent identity and outfit references across videos, while a frozen‑prefix recurrence enables long‑form audio‑driven generation with reduced boundary discontinuity and identity drift.

Mechanisms of Multimodal Synchronization: Insights from Decoder-Based Video-Text-to-Speech Synthesis

The paper investigates how sequence design influences temporal synchronization in unified decoder-only transformers for video‑text‑to‑speech synthesis. By training a Visatronic model on VoxCeleb2, the authors compare positional encoding schemes and modality ordering, finding that global sequential indexing and co‑temporal ordered indexing yield similar in‑domain performance, while text‑first co‑temporal indexing best transfers under domain shift. They also introduce TimeSync, a phoneme‑level metric that uncovers misalignments missed by frame‑level measures, and demonstrate that text and video provide complementary cues for intelligibility and temporal/emotional expressiveness.

BiMoGen: Bidirectional Motion-Text Generation via Unified Masked Discrete Diffusion

BiMoGen introduces a unified masked discrete diffusion framework for bidirectional motion‑text generation, addressing the limitations of autoregressive models in capturing bidirectional dependencies between language and motion. The approach employs a two‑stage training strategy—decoupled uni‑ and cross‑modal pretraining followed by supervised fine‑tuning—to establish robust cross‑modal correspondence, and incorporates Generation‑Aware Self‑Correction to mitigate error propagation during inference. Experiments on HumanML3D and KIT‑ML show competitive performance on both text‑to‑motion and motion‑to‑text tasks, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed training and correction mechanisms.

Linear Multi-granular Body Modeling for Text-Driven Motion Generation

Linear Multi-granular Body Modeling for Text-Driven Motion Generation proposes HiSTF Mamba, a linear-time framework that combines Dual‑Spatial Mamba, Bi‑Temporal Mamba, and a Dynamic Spatiotemporal Fusion Module to model both part‑level and whole‑body dynamics. The approach captures local joint dynamics and global coordination in parallel, encodes short‑term and long‑term motion details bidirectionally, and removes redundant features to produce an expressive spatiotemporal representation. Experiments on HumanML3D and KIT‑ML show that HiSTF Mamba achieves higher generation fidelity and semantic alignment while using far fewer parameters than existing segment‑based architectures.
