VAE Design Crucial for Sign Language Generation Models

Researchers explored how the design of variational autoencoders (VAEs) impacts latent pose representations for sign language production using diffusion models. They found that architectural and training objective choices in VAEs significantly influence the structure of the latent space. This influence, in turn, affects the performance of downstream text-to-sign generation models, sometimes more than traditional VAE reconstruction accuracy alone, as demonstrated on the Phoenix14T dataset.

    The Impact of VAE Design on Latent Pose Representations for Diffusion-based Sign Language Production

    Latent diffusion approaches to sign language production (SLP) rely on an initial stage that learns an encoding of sign pose sequences, enabling generative modeling in the resulting latent space. The autoencoder used in this stage is typically evaluated in terms of reconstruction …
