• Abstract: Information retrieval is an ever-evolving and crucial research domain. The substantial demand for high-quality human motion data especially in online acquirement has led to a surge in human motion research works. Prior works have mainly concentrated on dual-modality learning, such as text and motion tasks, but three-modality learning has been rarely explored. Intuitively, an extra introduced modality can enrich a model's application scenario, and more importantly, an adequate choice of the extra modality can also act as an intermediary and enhance the alignment between the other two disparate modalities. In this work, we introduce LAVIMO (LAnguage-VIdeo-MOtion alignment), a novel framework for three-modality learning integrating human-centric videos as an additional modality, thereby effectively bridging the gap between text and motion. Moreover, our approach leverages a specially designed attention mechanism to foster enhanced alignment and synergistic effects among text, video, and motion modalities. Empirically, our results on the HumanML3D and KIT-ML datasets show that LAVIMO achieves state-of-the-art performance in various motion-related cross-modal retrieval tasks, including text-to-motion, motion-to-text, video-to-motion and motion-to-video.

  We focus on the recently introduced text-motion retrieval which aim to search for sequences that are most relevant to a natural motion description. Despite recent efforts to explore these promising avenues, a primary challenge remains the insufficient data available to train robust text-motion models. We propose to investigate joint-dataset learning - where we train on multiple text-motion datasets simultaneously. We also introduce a transformer-based motion encoder, called MoT++, which employs the specified-temporal attention to process sequences of skeleton data.
