Generating Fine-Grained Human Motions Using ChatGPT-Refined Descriptions

Recently, significant progress has been made in text-based motion generation, enabling the generation of diverse and high-quality human motions that conform to textual descriptions. However, it remains challenging to generate fine-grained or stylized motions due to the lack of datasets annotated with detailed textual descriptions. By adopting a divide-and-conquer strategy, we propose a new framework named Fine-Grained Human Motion Diffusion Model (FG-MDM) for human motion generation. Specifically, we first parse previous vague textual annotation into fine-grained description of different body parts by leveraging a large language model (GPT-3.5). We then use these fine-grained descriptions to guide a transformer-based diffusion model. FG-MDM can generate fine-grained and stylized motions even outside of the distribution of the training data. Our experimental results demonstrate the superiority of FG-MDM over previous methods, especially the strong generalization capability. We will release our fine-grained textual annotations for HumanML3D and KIT.
