The paper introduces Timo, a kinematics-aware multimodal diffusion transformer designed for human motion generation. Timo employs fully shared multimodal attention, flow matching, and geometric/rotational-kinematics supervision to better coordinate articulated motion, and uses a two-stage curriculum to align motion with text captions. The authors also present a new benchmark of 40,025 clips from six datasets, showing that Timo outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods, achieving a 40.8% relative improvement over Kimodo on average.

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.
The paper introduces a unified conditional-flow framework that integrates text-driven motion generation, semantic editing, and intra-structural retargeting into a single rectified-flow model. By treating editing as a change in semantic condition and retargeting as a change in skeletal condition, the approach eliminates fragmented pipelines and allows a single model to perform generation, zero‑shot editing, and zero‑shot retargeting on articulated 3D motion data. Experiments on SnapMoGen and a Mixamo subset demonstrate that the model can handle all three tasks without task‑specific fine‑tuning, preserving both motion semantics and skeletal structure.

ReMoMask-2 is a retrieval‑augmented text‑to‑motion generation framework that improves on complex motion descriptions by addressing coarse retrieval and representation gaps. It introduces a structure‑aware RAG pipeline with Hierarchical Bidirectional Momentum contrastive learning, Semantic Spatial‑Temporal Attention, and Topology Structured Masking, and rebuilds the retrieval database in the generator’s latent space using a lightweight projector. Experiments on HumanML3D, KIT‑ML, and SnapMoGen show state‑of‑the‑art retrieval accuracy and the lowest FID scores, with a single mask‑transformer stage delivering faster inference than the previous two‑stage design.
