StreamTalk: Streaming Co-Speech Gesture Generation with Key-Pose Anchoring 文章

arXiv:2608.01643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-time co-speech gesture generation must produce 3D motion clip by clip as speech arrives. Existing streaming methods are open-loop: each clip depends on past context, but the model cannot check or correct its trajectory. Small errors therefore accumulate and cause drift over long sequences. We observe that this failure is mainly caused by the lack of a forward constraint rather than poor short-clip quality. A plausible key pose at the end of each clip provides a destination anchor that limits drift. Based on this observation, we propose StreamTalk, a closed-loop framework with a periodic generate-retrieve-refine cycle. Streaming Pose-Guided Generation first predicts a coarse clip, retrieves a plausible tail pose from a speaker-specific motion database, and refines the clip using this pose before continuing to the next window.
