Abstract
In one implementation, a method for generating a blended animation. The method includes: obtaining a motion input vector for a current time period; generating a motion output vector and pose information for the current time period based on the motion input vector; selecting an animated motion from a bank of animated motions for the current time period that matches the pose information within a threshold tolerance value; obtaining a blending coefficients vector for the current time period; generating a blended animation for the current time period by blending the motion output vector with the animated motion based on the blending coefficients vector; and generating a reward signal for the blended animation for the current time period.
