• Title: Towards motion from video diffusion models
• Authors: Paul Janson, Tiberiu Popa, Eugene Belilovsky,
• Abstract summary: We propose to synthesize human motion by deforming an SMPL-X body representation guided by Score distillation sampling (SDS) calculated using a video diffusion model. By analyzing the fidelity of the resulting animations, we gain insights into the extent to which we can obtain motion using publicly available text-to-video diffusion models.

• Abstract: Text-conditioned video diffusion models have emerged as a powerful tool in the realm of video generation and editing. But their ability to capture the nuances of human movement remains under-explored. Indeed the ability of these models to faithfully model an array of text prompts can lead to a wide host of applications in human and character animation. In this work, we take initial steps to investigate whether these models can effectively guide the synthesis of realistic human body animations. Specifically we propose to synthesize human motion by deforming an SMPL-X body representation guided by Score distillation sampling (SDS) calculated using a video diffusion model. By analyzing the fidelity of the resulting animations, we gain insights into the extent to which we can obtain motion using publicly available text-to-video diffusion models using SDS. Our findings shed light on the potential and limitations of these models for generating diverse and plausible human motions, paving the way for further research in this exciting area.

  We introduce a methodology for human image animation by leveraging a 3D human parametric model within a latent diffusion framework. By representing the 3D human parametric model as the motion guidance, we can perform parametric shape alignment of the human body between the reference image and the source video motion. Our approach also exhibits superior generalization capabilities on the proposed in-the-wild dataset.

In addition to generating novel views, our method has the ability to autoregressively synthesize 3D-consistent sequences.
