• Title: Learn the Force We Can: Enabling Sparse Motion Control in Multi-Object Video Generation
• Authors: Aram Davtyan and Paolo Favaro
• Abstract summary: We propose an unsupervised method to generate videos from a single frame and a sparse motion input. Our trained model can generate unseen realistic object-to-object interactions. We show that YODA is on par with or better than state of the art video generation prior work in terms of both controllability and video quality.

• Abstract: We propose a novel unsupervised method to autoregressively generate videos from a single frame and a sparse motion input. Our trained model can generate unseen realistic object-to-object interactions. Although our model has never been given the explicit segmentation and motion of each object in the scene during training, it is able to implicitly separate their dynamics and extents. Key components in our method are the randomized conditioning scheme, the encoding of the input motion control, and the randomized and sparse sampling to enable generalization to out of distribution but realistic correlations. Our model, which we call YODA, has therefore the ability to move objects without physically touching them. Through extensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations on several datasets, we show that YODA is on par with or better than state of the art video generation prior work in terms of both controllability and video quality.

  We present Puppet-Master, an interactive video generative model that can serve as a motion prior for part-level dynamics. At test time, given a single image and a sparse set of motion trajectories, Puppet-Master can synthesize a video depicting realistic part-level motion faithful to the given drag interactions.

  We leverage the interplay between part shape, connectivity, and motion using a denoising diffusion-based method. Our method takes an object category label and a part connectivity graph as input and generates an object's geometry and motion parameters. Our experiments show that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art in articulated object generation.

  This paper shows that robustness and generalisation to novel scene objects in 3D object-aware character synthesis can be achieved by training a motion model with as few as one reference object. We leverage an implicit feature representation trained on object-only datasets, which encodes an SE(3)-equivariant descriptor field around the object. We demonstrate substantial improvements in 3D virtual character motion and interaction quality and robustness to scenarios with unseen objects.
