• Abstract: Diverse and extensive work has recently been conducted on text-conditioned human motion generation. However, progress in the reverse direction, motion captioning, has seen less comparable advancement. In this paper, we introduce a novel architecture design that enhances text generation quality by emphasizing interpretability through spatio-temporal and adaptive attention mechanisms. To encourage human-like reasoning, we propose methods for guiding attention during training, emphasizing relevant skeleton areas over time and distinguishing motion-related words. We discuss and quantify our model's interpretability using relevant histograms and density distributions. Furthermore, we leverage interpretability to derive fine-grained information about human motion, including action localization, body part identification, and the distinction of motion-related words. Finally, we discuss the transferability of our approaches to other tasks. Our experiments demonstrate that attention guidance leads to interpretable captioning while enhancing performance compared to higher parameter-count, non-interpretable state-of-the-art systems.

  Our goal is to generate realistic human motion from natural language. For motion synthesis, we evaluate LEAD on HumanML3D and KIT-ML and show comparable performance to the state-of-the-art in terms of realism, diversity, and text-motion consistency. For motion textual inversion, our method demonstrates improved capacity in capturing out-of-distribution characteristics in comparison to traditional VAEs.

  We propose Chronologically Accurate Retrieval to evaluate the chronological understanding of motion-language models. We decompose textual descriptions into events, and prepare negative text samples by shuffling the order of events in compound action descriptions. We then design a simple task for motion-language models to retrieve the more likely text from the ground truth and its chronologically shuffled version.

  We present a novel Semantics-aware Motion reTargeting (SMT) method with the advantage of vision-language models to extract and maintain meaningful motion semantics. We utilize a differentiable module to render 3D motions and the high-level motion semantics are incorporated into the motion process by feeding the vision-language model and aligning the extracted semantic embeddings. To ensure the preservation of fine-grained motion details and high-level semantics, we adopt two-stage pipeline consisting of skeleton-aware pre-training and fine-tuning with semantics and geometry constraints.
