Researchers have developed a lightweight predictive world model for short-term human pose forecasting, incorporating facial expression-derived emotion embeddings as auxiliary conditional signals. The autoregressive model uses a two-layer LSTM architecture to perform 15-step rolling pose predictions. Experiments on pose-emotion video datasets indicated that while simple multimodal fusion did not consistently improve accuracy, normalized gating fusion significantly enhanced performance on emotion-driven motion sequences.
