3D Scenes Motion Planning and Generation with Motion Diffusion Probabilistic Model

Generating natural and realistic human motion sequences under the constraints of 3D scenes is a highly challenging task, requiring not only the precise modeling of dynamic variations in human joints but also the rigorous consideration of intricate interactions between the human body and the surrounding environment. While recent advances in deep generative models show great potential in tackling these challenges, existing methods often result in unnatural human motions and human - environment penetration during generation. In order to cope with these issues, we propose a novel approach that divides human motion generation into two stages. The first stage employs a bidirectional long short-term memory network incorporated with full-connected layers to generate motion trajectory under the input conditions including the starting and ending positions and orientations of the human model and scene feature point clouds extracted from the surrounding environment. In the second stage, we design a conditional diffusion model, guided by the trajectory generated in the first stage and with the embedding of 3D scene information, to generate human motion sequences within three - dimensional scenes. We evaluat our framework through extensive experiments on the PROX datasets, which validated its effectiveness. The results show that our method significantly outperforms existing ones in enhancing human motion naturalness and reasonableness, and reducing human penetration.
