Abstract:Text-driven human motion editing aims to modify existing motion sequences according to natural language instructions while maintaining the structural consistency of the original motion. Existing diffusion-based approaches struggle to balance text-responsive "change" and inertial "invariance". They often rely on coarse spatial constraints and rigid uniform time assumptions, leading to spatial motion distortions and the destruction of intrinsic physical rhythms during variable-length editing. To handle these challenges, we propose Change and Invariance Motion Editing (CIME), a unified framework that comprehensively decouples change and invariance into spatial pose and temporal rhythm dimensions. For spatial poses, our method integrates an omni-supervised positive-negative learning mechanism comprising hierarchical retrospective feature supervision, subtle motion preservation, and triplet-based semantic alignment. For temporal rhythms, we introduce the Riemannian Non-uniform Integral Manifold Mapping (RNIMM) module, which achieves high-fidelity reproduction of physical beats in the edited text via kinematics-aware non-uniform timestamps. Extensive experiments on the MotionFix and STANCE Adjustment datasets demonstrate that CIME achieves state-of-the-art performance in editing alignment and structural fidelity, validating the effectiveness of our unified architecture.

Abstract: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.
