ReMoGen: Real-time Human Interaction-to-Reaction Generation via Modular Learning from Diverse Data

Human behaviors in real-world environments are inherently interactive, with an individual's motion shaped by surrounding agents and the scene. Such capabilities are essential for applications in virtual avatars, interactive animation, and human-robot collaboration. We target real-time human interaction-to-reaction generation, which generates the ego's future motion from dynamic multi-source cues, including others' actions, scene geometry, and optional high-level semantic inputs. This task is fundamentally challenging due to (i) limited and fragmented interaction data distributed across heterogeneous single-person, human-human, and human-scene domains, and (ii) the need to produce low-latency yet high-fidelity motion responses during continuous online interaction. To address these challenges, we propose ReMoGen (Reaction Motion Generation), a modular learning framework for real-time interaction-to-reaction generation. ReMoGen leverages a universal motion prior learned from large-scale single-person motion datasets and adapts it to target interaction domains through independently trained Meta-Interaction modules, enabling robust generalization under data-scarce and heterogeneous supervision. To support responsive online interaction, ReMoGen performs segment-level generation together with a lightweight Frame-wise Segment Refinement module that incorporates newly observed cues at the frame level, improving both responsiveness and temporal coherence without expensive full-sequence inference. Extensive experiments across human-human, human-scene, and mixed-modality interaction settings show that ReMoGen produces high-quality, coherent, and responsive reactions, while generalizing effectively across diverse interaction scenarios.

SymBridge: A Human-in-the-Loop Cyber-Physical Interactive System for Adaptive Human-Robot Symbiosis

The development of intelligent robots seeks to seamlessly integrate them into the human world, providing assistance and companionship in daily life and work, with the ultimate goal of achieving human-robot symbiosis. This requires robots with intelligent interaction abilities to work naturally and effectively with humans. However, current robotic simulators fail to support real human participation, limiting their ability to provide authentic interaction experiences and gather valuable human feedback essential for enhancing robotic capabilities. In this paper, we introduce SymBridge, the first human-in-the-loop cyber-physical interactive system designed to enable the safe and efficient development, evaluation, and optimization of human-robot interaction methods. Specifically, we employ augmented reality technology to enable real humans to interact with virtual robots in physical environments, creating an authentic interactive experience. Building on this, we propose a novel robotic interaction model that generates responsive, precise robot actions in real time through continuous human behavior observation. The model incorporates multi-resolution human motion features and environmental affordances, ensuring contextually adaptive robotic responses. Additionally, SymBridge enables continuous robot learning by collecting human feedback and dynamically adapting the robotic interaction model. By leveraging a carefully designed system architecture and modules, SymBridge builds a bridge between humans and robots, as well as between cyber and physical spaces, providing a natural and realistic online interaction experience while facilitating the continuous evolution of robotic intelligence. Extensive experiments, user studies, and real robot testing demonstrate the promising performance of the system and highlight its potential to significantly advance research on human-robot symbiosis.

A Unified Framework for Human-centric Point Cloud Video Understanding

Human-centric Point Cloud Video Understanding (PVU) is an emerging field focused on extracting and interpreting human-related features from sequences of human point clouds, further advancing downstream human-centric tasks and applications. Previous works usually focus on tackling one specific task and rely on huge labeled data, which has poor generalization capability. Considering that human has specific characteristics, including the structural semantics of human body and the dynamics of human motions, we propose a unified framework to make full use of the prior knowledge and explore the inherent features in the data itself for generalized human-centric point cloud video understanding. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on various human-related tasks, including action recognition and 3D pose estimation. All datasets and code will be released soon.

Human-centric Scene Understanding for 3D Large-scale Scenarios

Human-centric scene understanding is significant for real-world applications, but it is extremely challenging due to the existence of diverse human poses and actions, complex human-environment interactions, severe occlusions in crowds, etc. In this paper, we present a large-scale multi-modal dataset for human-centric scene understanding, dubbed HuCenLife, which is collected in diverse daily-life scenarios with rich and fine-grained annotations. Our HuCenLife can benefit many 3D perception tasks, such as segmentation, detection, action recognition, etc., and we also provide benchmarks for these tasks to facilitate related research. In addition, we design novel modules for LiDAR-based segmentation and action recognition, which are more applicable for large-scale human-centric scenarios and achieve state-of-the-art performance.

Weakly Supervised 3D Multi-person Pose Estimation for Large-scale Scenes based on Monocular Camera and Single LiDAR

Depth estimation is usually ill-posed and ambiguous for monocular camera-based 3D multi-person pose estimation. Since LiDAR can capture accurate depth information in long-range scenes, it can benefit both the global localization of individuals and the 3D pose estimation by providing rich geometry features. Motivated by this, we propose a monocular camera and single LiDAR-based method for 3D multi-person pose estimation in large-scale scenes, which is easy to deploy and insensitive to light. Specifically, we design an effective fusion strategy to take advantage of multi-modal input data, including images and point cloud, and make full use of temporal information to guide the network to learn natural and coherent human motions. Without relying on any 3D pose annotations, our method exploits the inherent geometry constraints of point cloud for self-supervision and utilizes 2D keypoints on images for weak supervision. Extensive experiments on public datasets and our newly collected dataset demonstrate the superiority and generalization capability of our proposed method.
