New ATOP method animates 3D objects using text and motion personalization

Researchers have developed a new few-shot method called ATOP (Articulate That Object Part) that uses text prompts and motion personalization to animate static 3D objects. This approach leverages diffusion models to generate plausible motion samples, which are then personalized to a specific input 3D object. The method fine-tunes diffusion models to learn unique motion identifiers and then transfers this personalized motion to the 3D space for articulation parameter optimization. Experiments show ATOP achieves higher accuracy and better generalization in few-shot scenarios compared to existing methods. AI

IMPACT Enables more realistic and controllable animation of 3D objects with limited training data.

    Articulate That Object Part (ATOP): 3D Part Articulation via Text and Motion Personalization

    arXiv:2502.07278v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present ATOP (Articulate That Object Part), a novel few-shot method based on motion personalization to articulate a static 3D object with respect to a part and its motion as prescribed in a text prompt. Given the scarcity of …
