A Unified Conditional Flow for Motion Generation, Editing, and Intra-Structural Retargeting

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.

UniMoFlow: Grounding Instruction-Driven 3D Human Motion Editing in Generation

Instruction-driven editing of 3D human motion requires precise spatiotemporal localization, rich semantic grounding, and strict preservation of unmodified content. Existing methods either resort to training-free adaptation of generative models or rely solely on triplet supervision; however, adaptation often yields suboptimal control, and manually curated triplet datasets remain severely limited in scale and semantic diversity.

UniMate: One Unified Model to Animate Diverse Skeletons

UniMate is a unified foundation model that generates articulated motion for any skeleton from a rigged 3D asset and a text prompt, eliminating the need for test‑time optimization or per‑skeleton retraining. It uses a topology‑aware diffusion transformer that incorporates skeletal topology through graph‑aware attention bias, spectral rotary position embedding, and a global topological conditioner. Trained on the newly curated UniML3D dataset of 13,006 diverse motion sequences, UniMate outperforms existing baselines in quality, generalization, and efficiency, and supports zero‑shot cross‑topology transfer, in‑betweening, expansion, and text‑guided editing.

Timo: $\textbf{T}$aming Mult$\textbf{i}$modal Diffusion Transformer for Human $\textbf{Mo}$tion Generation

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.

MoRE: Motion-Regularized Encoding for Articulated 3D Generation

MoRE introduces a Motion-Regularized Encoding for generating articulated 3D objects from a single image. It encodes joint attributes as coordinate‑aligned joint lines with axis classification and Plücker moment coefficients, and couples attribute reconstruction to motion through a differentiable expectation over joint types and axis directions. Experiments on PartNet‑Mobility and ACD demonstrate improved part‑box agreement, articulated‑state geometry, visual similarity, and reduced joint prediction errors compared to prior methods.
