ELMA: Benchmarking Anaphoric Compositions for Long-Term Text-to-Motion Generation

To mitigate this, we present ELMA, an episodic long-term motion dataset with dense segment-level annotations that preserve cross-segment dependencies.

Key points

  • Text-guided long-term human motion generation is essential for applications such as continuously operating digital avatars.
  • Despite recent progress on short clips, existing models struggle with multi-segment instructions that involve anaphora, where constraints established in earlier segments must be preserved over time.
  • In this paper, we introduce a novel task of long-term motion generation from such anaphoric compositions.
  • We demonstrate that ELMA enables significant improvements in both global physical realism and semantic alignment, setting a robust new baseline for long-term motion synthesis.
