Flow-based Autoregressive Structured Prediction of Human Motion
2021
A new method is proposed for human motion predition by learning temporal and
spatial dependencies in an end-to-end deep neural network. The joint
connectivity is explicitly modeled using a novel autoregressive structured
prediction representation based on flow-based generative models. We learn a
latent space of complex body poses in consecutive frames which is conditioned
on the high-dimensional structure input sequence. To construct each latent
variable, the general and local smoothness of the joint positions are
considered in a generative process using conditional normalizing flows. As a
result, all frame-level and joint-level continuities in the sequence are
preserved in the model. This enables us to parameterize the inter-frame and
intra-frame relationships and joint connectivity for robust long-term
predictions as well as short-term prediction. Our experiments on two
challenging benchmark datasets of Human3.6M and AMASS demonstrate that our
proposed method is able to effectively model the sequence information for
motion prediction and outperform other techniques in 42 of the 48 total
experiment scenarios to set a new state-of-the-art.
