Natural face-to-face conversation requires real-time speech generation together with synchronized facial motion. Existing systems only partially address this problem: speech-only full-duplex models can generate speech in real time but do not produce facial motion, while audio-driven facial motion models animate a face from already available audio rather than jointly generating speech and motion online.
Recent diffusion-based models have enabled realistic audio-driven avatar generation in real-time streaming. However, existing approaches struggle to maintain visual temporal consistency and fail to explicitly perceive user intent in complex interactive streaming scenarios.
