From Diffusion to Flow: Efficient Motion Generation in MotionGPT3

The paper compares diffusion and rectified flow objectives within the MotionGPT3 framework for text-driven motion generation. Experiments on HumanML3D show that rectified flow converges faster, achieves strong test performance earlier, and matches or exceeds diffusion quality while requiring fewer sampling steps. The study isolates the generative objective’s impact, demonstrating that rectified flow’s benefits transfer to continuous-latent motion generation.

STyMo: Fast and Controllable Few-Shot Motion Style Transfer

STyMo is a few‑shot motion style transfer method that learns from only seconds of paired data and trains in one to two minutes. It decomposes style into a static posture component and a temporal dynamics component, allowing runtime adjustment of posture intensity, temporal exaggeration, and per‑body‑region style. The approach includes a stylizability gate to avoid artifacts on out‑of‑distribution motions and supports an iterative authoring workflow, with results shown across a range of motion styles and a released dataset for future research.

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.

MoVT: Video-Augmented Motion Tokenizer for Text-to-Motion Generation

MoVT is a new framework for text‑to‑motion generation that uses a cross‑modal augmented motion tokenizer to project 3D motion tokens into 2D, enriching the motion codebook with real‑world video patterns. The enriched tokens are mapped back to 3D, creating aligned 3D and 2D codebooks that better capture intricate motions. These codebooks feed a generative masked transformer, which predicts masked motion tokens in a modality‑agnostic way, allowing text‑index pairs from the 2D codebook and annotated videos to further improve generation quality. Empirical tests show MoVT outperforms previous state‑of‑the‑art methods on several key metrics.
