• Abstract: Text-conditioned human interaction generation must capture both long-range temporal causality within each individual and tightly coupled coordination between partners. Existing interaction diffusion models typically denoise full sequences using bidirectional attention, which obscures causality and hinders streaming and long-horizon generation. Autoregressive alternatives enforce causality but often suffer from temporal drift, leading to coordination degradation and unstable interaction dynamics over time. We propose InterCMDM, a block-causal latent diffusion framework for autoregressive two-person interaction generation. InterCMDM introduces a Dual-Stream Causal Diffusion Transformer that maintains separate causal streams for each person while modeling inter-person dependencies via unified dual-stream attention with multi-task attention masks. These masks unify interaction modeling within a single attention mechanism and support diverse coordination behaviors, including simultaneous actions, reactive responses, leader-follower dynamics, and independent motion. By training a single model across these mask configurations as a form of data augmentation, InterCMDM enables controllable interaction generation by simply selecting the desired attention mask at inference time. Finally, a block-wise diffusion objective enables stable latent rollout over long sequences without repeated decode-encode cycles. InterCMDM achieves state-of-the-art performance on InterHuman and Inter-X, improving text-motion alignment, realism, and long-horizon continuity.

  Humans are highly adaptable, swiftly switching between different modes to handle different tasks, situations and contexts. In Human-object interaction (HOI) activities, these modes can be attributed to two mechanisms: (1) the large-scale consistent plan for the whole activity and (2) the small-scale children interactive actions that start and end along the timeline. This work proposes to model two concurrent mechanisms that jointly control human motion.

We propose a novel representation for motion input in our interaction diffusion model, which explicitly formulates the global relations between the two performers in the world frame.
