XRMoGen is a codebase for motion generation. Currently, it contains two dance generation algorithms

• Bailando: Siyao et al., Bailando: 3D Dance Generation by Actor-Critic GPT with Choreographic Memory, CVPR 2022
• DanceRevolution: Huang et al., Dance Revolution: Long-Term Dance Generation with Music via Curriculum Learning, ICLR 2021

For environment settings, see installation.md.

• Getting Started
  • Datasets
  • Build a Model
    • Write a new dance generation model
  • Train a Model
    • Iteration Controls
    • Train
    • Test
    • Visualize
  • Tutorials

We recommend using pre-extracted features for music and motion data, see dataset_preparation.md. After downloading, extract it to $PROJECT/data. In order to facilitate the synthesis of a video with music after the dance is generated, it is needed to download the original music (.mov) to the musics folder in the same directory:

The model structure can be customized through config files. To implement a new method, your model need to contain following functions/medhotds to fit the training/test pipeline:

• train_step(): forward method of the training mode.
• val_step(): forward method of the testing mode.
• registered as a dance model

To be specific, if we want to implement a new model, there are several things to do.

1. create a new file in mogen/models/dance_models/my_model.py.

   from ..builder import NETWORKS
   from ...builder import DANCE_MODELS
   
   @DANCE_MODELS.register_module()
   class MyDanceModel(nn.Module):
   
       def __init__(self, model_config):
           super().__init__()
   
       def forward(self, ...):
           ....
   
       def train_step(self, data, optimizer, **kwargs):
           ....
   
       def val_step(self, data, optimizer=None, **kwargs):
           ....

2. import the model in mogen/models/__init__.py

   from .my_model import MyDanceModel

3. write a config file that defines the model as

   model = dict(
       type='MyDanceModel',
       ....

XRMoGen uses mmcv.runner.EpochBasedRunner to control training and test.

In the training mode, the max_epochs in config file decide how many epochs to train. In test mode, max_epochs is forced to change to 1, which represents only 1 epoch to test.

Validation frequency is set as workflow of config file:

 workflow = [('train', 20), ('val', 1)]

For example, to train Bailando (Dance Revolution),

python main.py --config configs/dance_rev.py

Arguments are:

• --config: config file path.

To test relevant model, add --test_only tag after the config path. We provide some pretrained weights to test (see pretrained_model_list.md. Download the pretrained weights under a folder ./example, and run

python main.py --config configs/bailando_test.py --test_only

to generate the dance poses. The poses will be stored under the workdir ("./bailando_test" in this case) set in config file.

To Compute the quantitative scores:

python tools/eval_quantitative_scores.py --pkl_root ./bailando_test/test/epoch0 --gt_root data/aist_features_zero_start --music_feature_root data/aistpp_test_full_wav

The results should be aligned with benchmark.md.

python tools/visualize_dance_from_pkl.py --pkl_root ./bailando_test/test/epoch0  --audio_path data/musics/

Currently, we provide some tutorials for users to learn about

• configs
• data pipeline
• model

Except for that，The document also includes the following

• api
• dataset_preparation
• installation
