Existing efforts in motion synthesis typically utilize either generative transformers with discrete representations or diffusion models with continuous representations. However, the discretization process in generative transformers can introduce motion errors, while the sampling process in diffusion models tends to be slow. In this paper, we propose a novel text-to-motion synthesis method GMMotion that combines a continuous motion representation with an autoregressive model, using the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to represent the conditional probability distribution. Unlike autoregressive approaches relying on residual vector quantization, our model employs continuous motion representations derived from the VAE's latent space. This choice streamlines both the training and the inference processes. Specifically, we utilize a causal transformer to learn the distributions of continuous motion representations, which are modeled with a learnable Gaussian mixture model. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model surpasses existing state-of-the-art models in the motion synthesis task.

The aim of text-based person retrieval is to identify pedestrians using natural language descriptions within a large-scale image gallery. Traditional methods rely heavily on manually annotated image-text pairs, which are resource-intensive to obtain. With the emergence of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), the advanced capabilities of contemporary models in image understanding have led to the generation of highly accurate captions. Therefore, this paper explores the potential of employing Large Vision-Language Models for unsupervised text-based pedestrian image retrieval and proposes a Multi-grained Uncertainty Modeling and Alignment framework (MUMA). Initially, multiple Large Vision-Language Models are employed to generate diverse and hierarchically structured pedestrian descriptions across different styles and granularities. However, the generated captions inevitably introduce noise. To address this issue, an uncertainty-guided sample filtration module is proposed to estimate and filter out unreliable image-text pairs. Additionally, to simulate the diversity of styles and granularities in captions, a multi-grained uncertainty modeling approach is applied to model the distributions of captions, with each caption represented as a multivariate Gaussian distribution. Finally, a multi-level consistency distillation loss is employed to integrate and align the multi-grained captions, aiming to transfer knowledge across different granularities. Experimental evaluations conducted on three widely-used datasets demonstrate the significant advancements achieved by our approach.
