Spatial Temporal Synergy: Balancing Change and Invariance in Text Driven 3D Human Motion Editing

Text-based human motion editing aims to modify existing motion sequences according to natural language instructions while maintaining the consistency of the original motion. Existing diffusion-based approaches often rely on heuristic similarity cues or coarse global conditioning, leading to motion distortion and suboptimal semantic alignment. The key challenge lies in balancing change (i.e. precisely editing target regions) and invariance (i.e. preserving unedited parts). To handle such challenge, we propose an Omni-Supervised Positive-Negative Learning framework, named OmniME. Our method integrates three complementary components: (1) retrospective feature supervision that enforces coarse-to-fine consistency across transformer layers,(2) motion preservation mechanism that focuses on subtle variations according to the source-target similarity, and (3) triplet-based semantic alignment that strengthens text-motion correspondence. Together, these components form a unified supervision paradigm that balances change and invariance. Extensive experiments on the MotionFix and STANCE Adjustment datasets demonstrate that OmniME achieves state-of-the-art performance in editing alignment, validating the effectiveness of our unified learning framework. Our source codes and models have been released at: https://github.com/rocket-ycyer/OmniME.git

Instruction-driven editing of 3D human motion requires precise spatiotemporal localization, rich semantic grounding, and strict preservation of unmodified content. Existing methods either resort to training-free adaptation of generative models or rely solely on triplet supervision; however, adaptation often yields suboptimal control, and manually curated triplet datasets remain severely limited in scale and semantic diversity. To overcome this bottleneck, we ground motion editing directly within text-to-motion generation across data, architecture, and inference. At the data level, we develop a closed-loop synthesis-and-verification pipeline that produces Omni-MoEdit, a large-scale dataset spanning body-part, amplitude, temporal, action, and style edits. At the architectural level, we introduce UniMoFlow, a unified latent flow-matching model that shares broad semantic and kinematic knowledge between generation and editing. At the inference level, SAFE (Source-Anchored Flow Editing) complements UniMoFlow with controllable, source-anchored refinement. Furthermore, we augment standard evaluations with semantics-aware metrics to account for valid edits that inherently deviate from a single ground-truth reference. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved target-text alignment, edit effectiveness, and cycle consistency, while maintaining competitive source fidelity and text-to-motion generation quality.

Text-driven human motion editing aims to realize a requested change while preserving compatible source content. Existing diffusion editors rely largely on learned conditioning for preservation of the unedited part, yet their outputs can lose temporal detail as denoising proceeds. We propose the Source-Preserving Denoising framework (SuperMotion), which explicitly reuses the source at each reverse step for source preservation. We first align the source motion to the output timeline and predict a preservation gate that controls reuse across frames and feature dimensions. A clean-space source anchor then utilizes the learned preservation gate to blend the predicted clean motion with the aligned source and passes the corrected estimate directly to the sampling posterior. Because the aligned source is a realized motion rather than a regression output, the anchor injects sample-level temporal detail that a reconstruction-trained denoiser tends to smooth away. To learn effective source reuse, we supervise the anchored estimate against the editing target and match its second temporal differences through a temporal high-frequency loss. These objectives require no explicit edit masks. Extensive experiments show that SuperMotion improves editing accuracy, reaching 33.20% full-pool R@1 on MotionFix, while reducing temporal-detail attenuation and preserving motion dynamics as it realizes the requested changes. Ablations confirm that the learned preservation gate is responsible for the gain and that it reuses the source to retain the unedited content properly.
