ProMoDD: Dataset Distillation for 3D Human Motion via Prototype-Conditioned Diffusion Models

We propose Prototype-Conditioned Motion Dataset Distillation (ProMoDD), which conditions a motion diffusion model on class-wise prototypes of temporally resolved recognition features.

Key points

  • Dataset distillation (DD) aims to retain the training utility of a large dataset in a much smaller set of examples.
  • For skeleton-based action recognition, this requires capturing discriminative motion variation without disrupting the geometry and temporal continuity of articulated bodies.
  • We further tailor diffusion training to motion data, enabling the generator to model both skeletal configurations and their temporal evolution.
  • We then construct each compact training set through budget-aware hybrid selection: representative real sequences cover densely populated regions of the pooled recognition space, while selected generated candidates complement them in less-populated regions.
