New IKMo framework generates motion from images with diverse constraints

Researchers have introduced IKMo, a novel framework for generating motion from images, addressing the challenge of integrating diverse spatial constraints. The system utilizes TPMDM, a diffusion model with a parallel control strategy, to disentangle and align global trajectory information with local pose data derived from 2D images. This approach aims to make motion generation more accessible by allowing users to work with unaligned, in-the-wild images, establishing a new state-of-the-art on benchmarks like HumanML3D and KIT-ML. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more accessible and precise animation tools for users working with unaligned image data.

    IKMo: Image-Keyframed Motion Generation with Trajectory-Pose Conditioned Motion Diffusion Model

    arXiv:2505.21146v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While text-to-motion generation is mainstream, integrating explicit spatial constraints has become a standard solution for precise animation. Existing state-of-the-art models are tailored for professional workflows, effect…
