Cross Specie Animation

Cross-species animation aims to generate realistic animations of animals moving in ways not captured in existing datasets, overcoming challenges posed by differing body structures. Current research focuses on diffusion-based models, often incorporating techniques like subject alignment to accurately transfer motion between species and multi-track timeline control for fine-grained manipulation of generated animations. These advancements leverage natural language processing to enable intuitive, iterative editing of animations, improving the efficiency and control in animation workflows. The resulting improvements in realism and control have significant implications for fields like animation, virtual reality, and scientific visualization.
