• Abstract: Human motion prediction is important for virtual reality (VR) applications, e.g., for realistic avatar animation. Existing methods have synthesised body motion only from observed past motion, despite the fact that human gaze is known to correlate strongly with body movements and is readily available in recent VR headsets. We present GazeMoDiff -- a novel gaze-guided denoising diffusion model to generate stochastic human motions. Our method first uses a graph attention network to learn the spatio-temporal correlations between eye gaze and human movements and to fuse them into cross-modal gaze-motion features. These cross-modal features are injected into a noise prediction network via a cross-attention mechanism and progressively denoised to generate realistic human full-body motions. Experimental results on the MoGaze and GIMO datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin in terms of average displacement error (15.03% on MoGaze and 9.20% on GIMO). We further conducted an online user study to compare our method with state-of-the-art methods and the responses from 23 participants validate that the motions generated by our method are more realistic than those from other methods. Taken together, our work makes a first important step towards gaze-guided stochastic human motion prediction and guides future work on this important topic in VR research.

  We present GazeMotion, a novel method for human motion forecasting that combines information on past human poses with human eye gaze. Inspired by evidence from behavioural sciences showing that human eye and body movements are closely coordinated, GazeMotion first predicts future eye gaze from past gaze, then fuses predicted future gaze and past poses into a gaze-pose graph, and finally uses a residual graph convolutional network to forecast body motion.
