Enhanced pose generation based on generative modeling

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for enhanced pose generation based on generative modeling. An example method includes accessing an autoencoder trained based on poses of real-world persons, each pose being defined based on location information associated with joints, with the autoencoder being trained to map an input pose to a feature encoding associated with a latent feature space. Information identifying, at least, a first pose and a second pose associated with a character configured for inclusion in an in-game world is obtained via user input, with each of the poses being defined based on location information associated with the joints and with the joints being included on a skeleton associated with the character. Feature encodings associated with the first pose and the second pose are generated based on the autoencoder. Output poses are generated based on transition information associated with the first pose and the second pose.
