Abstract: Text-driven motion generation has achieved substantial progress with the emergence of diffusion models. However, existing methods still struggle to generate complex motion sequences that correspond to fine-grained descriptions, depicting detailed and accurate spatio-temporal actions. This lack of fine controllability limits the usage of motion generation to a larger audience. To tackle these challenges, we present FineMoGen, a diffusion-based motion generation and editing framework that can synthesize fine-grained motions, with spatial-temporal composition to the user instructions. To facilitate a large-scale study on this new fine-grained motion generation task, we also contribute the HuMMan-MoGen dataset, which contains fine-grained description for each body part and each action stage.

Pipeline Overview: FineMoGen builds upon diffusion model with a novel transformer architecture dubbed Spatio-Temporal Mixture Attention (SAMI). SAMI optimizes the generation of the global attention template from three perspectives: 1) Temporal Independence: we regard each global template as a time-varied signal, which allows us to extrapolate the feature refinement between different time intervals. 2) Spatial Independence: we manually divide the raw motion data into several body parts, process them independently in FFN modules and apply sptial refinement in SAMI modules. 3) Sparsely-Activated Mixture-of-Expert: we broaden the overall network structure to enhance learning capability and overcome the training difficulties brought by spatial-temporal independence modelling.

Data Preparation

Download data files from google drive link. Unzipped all files and arrange them in the following file structure:

FineMoGen

Training

Training with a single / multiple GPUs

PYTHONPATH=".":$PYTHONPATH python tools/train.py ${CONFIG_FILE} ${WORK_DIR} --no-validate

Note: The provided config files are designed for training with 8 gpus. If you want to train on a single gpu, you can reduce the number of epochs to one-fourth of the original.

Training with Slurm

./tools/slurm_train.sh ${PARTITION} ${JOB_NAME} ${CONFIG_FILE} ${WORK_DIR} ${GPU_NUM} --no-validate

Common optional arguments include:

Example: using 8 GPUs to train ReMoDiffuse on a slurm cluster.

./tools/slurm_train.sh my_partition my_job configs/finemogen/finemogen_kit.py logs/finemogen_kit 8 --no-validate

Evaluation

Evaluate with a single GPU / multiple GPUs

PYTHONPATH=".":$PYTHONPATH python tools/test.py ${CONFIG} --work-dir=${WORK_DIR} ${CHECKPOINT}

Evaluate with slurm

./tools/slurm_test.sh ${PARTITION} ${JOB_NAME} ${CONFIG} ${WORK_DIR} ${CHECKPOINT}

Example:

./tools/slurm_test.sh my_partition test_finemogen configs/finemogen/finemogen_kit.py logs/finemogen/finemogen_kit logs/finemogen/finemogen_kit/latest.pth

Note: Run full evaluation for HumanML3D dataset is very slow. You can change replication_times in human_ml3d_bs128.py to $1$ for a quick evaluation.
