DanceAgent: Dance Movement Refinement With LLM Agent

Recent research on motion generation and text-to-motion synthesis focus on coarse-grained motion descriptions, neglecting fine-grained motion details and motion quality refinement. Additionally, current text-to-motion models, such as MotionGPT, lack multi-turn interaction capabilities, relying on single-turn and single-modality transformations, which limit their ability to integrate information from different modalities across interaction stages. These gaps leave critical questions, such as "How well is the motion performed" and "How can it be refined?" largely unaddressed. To address these issues, first, we introduce two fine-grained dance datasets-one focusing on jazz dance and the other on folk dance, which we have independently collected. Second, considering that dance motions are inherently complex and consist of long sequential actions, we introduce both global and local optimization during the motion encoding phase and employ Hidden Markov Model (HMM) temporal modeling to capture differential features between correct and incorrect movements, thereby optimizing the training process. Finally, we propose a multi-turn historical dialogue framework that enables three stages generation-motion assess, text instructions, and motion refinement-for input videos. This framework assists dance beginners by providing feedback on their movements, offering textual instructions, and delivering motion-based refinement. Experimental results on the jazz dance and folk dance datasets demonstrate that our method surpasses existing approaches in both quantitative and qualitative metrics, establishing a new benchmark for motion-text generation in the field of dance training.

Abstract

Recent research on motion generation and text-to-motion synthesis focus on coarse-grained motion descriptions, neglecting fine-grained motion details and motion quality refinement. Additionally, current text-to-motion models, such as MotionGPT, lack multi-turn interaction capabilities, relying on single-turn and single-modality transformations, which limit their ability to integrate information from different modalities across interaction stages. These gaps leave critical questions, such as "How well is the motion performed" and "How can it be refined?" largely unaddressed. To address these issues, first, we introduce two fine-grained dance datasets-one focusing on jazz dance and the other on folk dance, which we have independently collected. Second, considering that dance motions are inherently complex and consist of long sequential actions, we introduce both global and local optimization during the motion encoding phase and employ Hidden Markov Model (HMM) temporal modeling to capture differential features between correct and incorrect movements, thereby optimizing the training process. Finally, we propose a multi-turn historical dialogue framework that enables three stages generation-motion assess, text instructions, and motion refinement-for input videos. This framework assists dance beginners by providing feedback on their movements, offering textual instructions, and delivering motion-based refinement. Experimental results on the jazz dance and folk dance datasets demonstrate that our method surpasses existing approaches in both quantitative and qualitative metrics, establishing a new benchmark for motion-text generation in the field of dance training.
