Learning Joint Representation of Human Motion and Language
share
In this work, we present MoLang (a Motion-Language connecting model) for learning joint representation of human motion and language, leveraging both unpaired and paired datasets of motion and language modalities. To this end, we propose a motion-language model with contrastive learning, empowering our model to learn better generalizable representations of the human motion domain. Empirical results show that our model learns strong representations of human motion data through navigating language modality. Our proposed method is able to perform both action recognition and motion retrieval tasks with a single model where it outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on a number of action recognition benchmarks.
