## News - **2024 11.25**: Thank you for your patience. Although the code is ready, due to the company's latest open-source policy, this project can only be open-sourced on https://github.com/antgroup, with an expected release in the spring of 2025. We sincerely apologize for the delay. Open-sourcing is **never easy**, and we kindly ask for your understanding. - **2024 10.21**: Thank you all for your interest in Animate-X. The main reasons we haven't made the code public yet are: 1. The company needs to go through certain public approval processes, which take time. 2. We are currently cleaning up the code and preparing for open source in various aspects. We promise to release the code and the models by mid to late November. We appreciate your patience. - **2024 10.1**: The project page and Arxiv paper of Animate-X are released. ## TODO List - [ ] Release model, checkpoint and demo code. ## Citation If you find this codebase useful for your research, please use the following entry. ```BibTeX @article{tan2024animate-x, title={Animate-X: Universal Character Image Animation with Enhanced Motion Representation}, author={Tan, Shuai and Gong, Biao and Wang, Xiang and Zhang, Shiwei and Zheng, Dandan and Zheng, Ruobin and Zheng, Kecheng and Chen, Jingdong and Yang, Ming}, journal={arXiv preprint arXiv:2410.10306}, year={2024} } ```
