Cafe-Talk: Generating 3D Talking Face Animation with Multimodal Coarse- and Fine-grained Control

H. Chen, H. Zhang, S. Zhang, et al.

We tackle the challenge of generating 3D talking face animations with controllable expressions. We propose Cafe-Talk, which integrates coarse- and fine-grained multimodal controls to disentangle conditions, synchronize lip movements, enhance expressiveness, and enable precise control.

Sequential Texts Driven Cohesive Motions Synthesis with Natural Transitions

S. Li, S. Zhuang, W. Song, X. Zhang, H. Chen, A. Hao

We address the problem of synthesizing seamless human motion from sequential texts with semantic coherence and natural transitions. It uses a framework with L2G semantic fusion and transition reasoning modules, along with a custom transition loss and a new STDM dataset.
