Recent advancements in foundation models have revolutionized joint audio-video generation. However, existing approaches typically treat human-centric tasks including reference-based audio-video generation (R2AV), video editing (RV2AV) and audio-driven video animation (RA2V) as isolated objectives. F…
Audio-driven visual dubbing aims to synchronize a video's lip movements with new speech but is fundamentally challenged by the lack of ideal training data: paired videos differing only in lip motion. Existing methods circumvent this via mask-based inpainting. However, masking inevitably destroys spa…
Human-Centric Video Generation (HCVG) methods seek to synthesize human videos from multimodal inputs, including text, images, and audio. Existing methods struggle to effectively coordinate these heterogeneous modalities due to two challenges: the scarcity of modality-complete data and the difficulty
Subject-to-video generation has witnessed substantial progress in recent years. However, existing models still face significant challenges in faithfully following textual instructions. This limitation, commonly known as the copy-paste problem, arises from the widely used in-pair training paradigm. T…
Existing works in single-image human reconstruction suffer from weak generalizability due to insufficient training data or 3D inconsistencies for a lack of comprehensive multi-view knowledge. In this paper, we introduce MagicMan, a human-specific multi-view diffusion model to generate high-quality n…
Dance generation, as a branch of human motion generation, has attracted increasing attention. Recently, a few works attempt to enhance dance expressiveness, which includes genre matching, beat alignment, and dance dynamics, from certain aspects. However, the enhancement is quite limited as they lack…
Zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis aims to clone any unseen speaker’s voice without adaptation parameters. By quantizing speech waveform into discrete acoustic tokens and modeling these tokens with the language model, recent language model-based TTS models show zero-shot speaker adaptation cap…
Recent advances in text-to-speech have significantly improved the expressiveness of synthesized speech. However, it is still challenging to generate speech with contextually appropriate and coherent speaking style for multi-sentence text in audiobooks. In this paper, we propose a context-aware coher…
Music-driven 3D dance generation has become an intensive research topic in recent years with great potential for real-world applications. Most existing methods lack the consideration of genre, which results in genre inconsistency in the generated dance movements. In addition, the correlation between…
Audio-driven talking face with portrait customization enhances the flexibility of avatar applications for different scenarios, such as on-line meetings, mixed reality, and data generation. Among the existing methods, audio-driven talking face and face swapping are typically viewed as separate tasks…
Previous works on expressive speech synthesis mainly focus on current sentence. The context in adjacent sentences is neglected, resulting in inflexible speaking style for the same text, which lacks speech variations. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical framework to model speaking style from con…
We propose a novel robust and efficient Speech-to-Animation (S2A) approach for synchronized facial animation generation in human-computer interaction. Compared with conventional approaches, the proposed approach utilizes phonetic posteriorgrams (PPGs) of spoken phonemes as input to ensure the cross-…
