BEAT (Body-Expression-Audio-Text)

BEAT has i) 76 hours, high-quality, multi-modal data captured from 30 speakers talking with eight different emotions and in four different languages, ii) 32 millions frame-level emotion and semantic relevance annotations. Our statistical analysis on BEAT demonstrates the correlation of conversational gestures with \textit{facial expressions}, \textit{emotions}, and \textit{semantics}, in addition to the known correlation with \textit{audio}, \textit{text}, and \textit{speaker identity}. Based on this observation, we propose a baseline model, \textbf{Ca}scaded \textbf{M}otion \textbf{N}etwork \textbf{(CaMN)}, which consists of above six modalities modeled in a cascaded architecture for gesture synthesis. To evaluate the semantic relevancy, we introduce a metric, Semantic Relevance Gesture Recall (\textbf{SRGR}). Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate metrics' validness, ground truth data quality, and baseline's state-of-the-art performance. To the best of our knowledge,

TED Gesture Dataset

Co-speech gestures are everywhere. People make gestures when they chat with others, give a public speech, talk on a phone, and even think aloud. Despite this ubiquity, there are not many datasets available. The main reason is that it is expensive to recruit actors/actresses and track precise body motions. There are a few datasets available (e.g., MSP AVATAR [17] and Personality Dyads Corpus [18]), but their sizes are limited to less than 3 h, and they lack diversity in speech content and speakers. The gestures also could be unnatural owing to inconvenient body tracking suits and acting in a lab environment.

BEAT2 (BEAT-SMPLX-FLAME)

We propose EMAGE, a framework to generate full-body human gestures from audio and masked gestures, encompassing facial, local body, hands, and global movements. To achieve this, we first introduce BEAT2 (BEAT-SMPLX-FLAME), a new mesh-level holistic co-speech dataset. BEAT2 combines MoShed SMPLX body with FLAME head parameters and further refines the modeling of head, neck, and finger movements, offering a community-standardized, high-quality 3D motion captured dataset. EMAGE leverages masked body gesture priors during training to boost inference performance. It involves a Masked Audio Gesture Transformer, facilitating joint training on audio-to-gesture generation and masked gesture reconstruction to effectively encode audio and body gesture hints. Encoded body hints from masked gestures are then separately employed to generate facial and body movements. Moreover, EMAGE adaptively merges speech features from the audio's rhythm and content and utilizes four compositional VQ-VAEs to enh

Talking With Hands 16.2M

This is a 16.2-million frame (50-hour) multimodal dataset of two-person face-to-face spontaneous conversations. This dataset features synchronized body and finger motion as well as audio data. It represents the largest motion capture and audio dataset of natural conversations to date. The statistical analysis verifies strong intraperson and interperson covariance of arm, hand, and speech features, potentially enabling new directions on data-driven social behavior analysis, prediction, and synthesis.
