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 BRAID, a hierarchical latent-variable model that generates multi-person human motion by explicitly modeling both group-level interaction dynamics and individual behavior conditioned on evolving group context. It treats social motion generation as a meta-transfer learning problem, learning shared interaction priors across datasets and adapting them to arbitrary context sets of observed people and joints. BRAID supports coherent generation under full, sparse, or partial observations and produces compact social-state vectors useful for downstream embodied-agent systems, with evaluations on social forecasting, tracking, in-filling, and response generation.

arXiv:2607. 25157v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete masked diffusion language models support bidirectional generation and infilling, but adapting pretrained autoregressive (AR) transformers requires reconciling causal pretraining with bidirectional denoising.

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.

Real-time long-form avatar audio--video generation requires causal, continuous synthesis while maintaining audiovisual synchronization and visual consistency. Adapting a pretrained bidirectional model to this setting presents two key dilemmas.
LiveVVT introduces a rolling streaming diffusion framework for video virtual try‑on that maintains high visual fidelity while enabling real‑time performance. By confining bidirectional spatio‑temporal modeling to a fixed‑size window and using bounded temporal and global appearance memories, it emits clean video chunks with low latency. A progressive distillation pipeline further refines the model, achieving superior quality with 26× lower latency and 11× higher throughput compared to prior methods.
