Long-tern Motion Generation for Interactive robots with CNN-GAN

Jan 8, 2020


In this report, we propose a framework for generating long-term human-like motion based on a deep generative model.
Thanks to the network structure, the proposed method allows us generating seem-less long-term motions while the model is trained by 4 seconds long short motion samples.
The computer graphics of generated motions seem to be reproduced scenes where a pair of persons talking to each other.
