AI summary

There are provided a method and a system for generating human motions, which generate motions of an empty frame by using motions in a given frame. A human motion generation method according to an embodiment includes: a first step of transforming, by a system, a domain of pose information of a frame; a second step of generating, by the system, motion features of an empty frame in the transformed domain; and a third step of inversely transforming, by the system, the generated motion features into a time domain. Accordingly, the method and system may effectively generate motions by obtaining a basis vector to be used for transforming a domain of motion trajectory information by training a deep learning-based transform model, transforming a motion trajectory through the basis vector, and inputting the transformed motion trajectory to a motion generation model.
