AI Choreographer: Learn to dance with AIST++

Photo

In this work, we present a transformer-based learning framework for 3D dance generation conditioned on music. We carefully design our network architecture and empirically study the keys for obtaining qualitatively pleasing results. In addition, we propose a new dataset of paired 3D motion and music called AIST++, which contains 1.1M frames of 3D dance motion in 1408 sequences, covering 10 genres of dance choreographies and accompanied with multi-view camera parameters. To our knowledge it is the largest dataset of this kind.
