Many recent human motion prediction methods adopt a multi-stage refinement framework, where each stage produces an initial guess of future poses for the next stage. These guesses are progressively refined towards the target prediction through a sequence of spatial-temporal reasoning stages.However,
We investigate a new task in human motion prediction, which aims to forecast future body poses from historically observed sequences while accounting for arbitrary latency. This differs from existing works that assume an ideal scenario where future motions can be "instantaneously" predicted, thereby…
Making accurate prediction of human motions based on the historical observation is a crucial technology for robots to collaborate with humans. Existing human motion prediction methods are all built under an ideal assumption that robots can instantaneously react, which ignores the time delay introduc…
Heatmap regression has dominated human pose estimation due to its superior performance and strong generalization. To meet the requirements of traditional explicit neural networks for output form, existing heatmap-based methods discretize the originally continuous heatmap representation into 2D pixel…
The emergence of text-driven motion synthesis technique provides animators with great potential to create efficiently. However, in most cases, textual expressions only contain general and qualitative motion descriptions, while lack fine depiction and sufficient intensity, leading to the synthesized…
Domain shift is a challenge for supervised human pose estimation where the source data and target data come from different distributions. This is why pose estimation methods generally perform worse on the test set than on the training set. Recently test-time adaptation has proven to be an effective…
"Existing motion forecasting models, while making progress, struggle to bridge the gap between the source and target domains. Recent solutions often rely on an unrealistic assumption that the target domain remains stationary. Due to the ever-changing environment, however, the real-world test distrib…
In the academic field the research on human motion prediction tasks mainly focuses on exploiting the observed information to forecast human movements accurately in the near future horizon. However a significant gap appears when it comes to the application field as current models are all trained offl…
Generating realistic human motions with high framerate is an underexplored task, due to the varied framerates of training data, huge memory burden brought by high framerates and slow sampling speed of generative models. Recent advances make a compromise for training by downsampling high-framerate de…
"Predicting accurate future human poses from historically observed motions remains a challenging task due to the spatial-temporal complexity and continuity of motions. Previous historical-value methods typically interpret the motion as discrete consecutive frames, which neglects the continuous tempo…
Let us rethink the real-world scenarios that require human motion prediction techniques, such as human-robot collaboration. Current works simplify the task of predicting human motions into a one-off process of forecasting a short future sequence (usually no longer than 1 second) based on a historica…
Stochastic human motion prediction aims to forecast multiple plausible future motions given a single pose sequence from the past. Most previous works focus on designing elaborate losses to improve the accuracy, while the diversity is typically characterized by randomly sampling a set of latent varia…
Predicting high-fidelity future human poses, from a historically observed sequence, is crucial for intelligent robots to interact with humans. Deep end-to-end learning approaches, which typically train a generic pre-trained model on external datasets and then directly apply it to all test samples, e…
Current motion forecasting approaches typically train a deep end-to-end model from the source domain data, and then apply it directly to target subjects. Despite promising results, they remain non-optimal, due to privacy considerations, the test person and his/her natural properties (e.g., stature,…
"Previous works on human motion prediction follow the pattern of building a mapping relation between the sequence observed and the one to be predicted. However, due to the inherent complexity of multivariate time series data, it still remains a challenge to find the extrapolation relation between mo…
Predicting accurate and realistic future human poses from historically observed sequences is a fundamental task in the intersection of computer vision, graphics, and artificial intelligence. Recently, continuous efforts have been devoted to addressing this issue, which has achieved remarkable progre…
3D human motion prediction, i.e., forecasting future sequences from given historical poses, is a fundamental task for action analysis, human-computer interaction, machine intelligence. Recently, the state-of-the-art method assumes that the whole human motion sequence involves a fully-connected graph…
