GDPO-Listener: Expressive Interactive Head Generation via Auto-Regressive Flow Matching and Group reward-Decoupled Policy Optimization

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.25020v1 Announce Type: new Generating realistic 3D head motion for dyadic interactions is a significant challenge in virtual human synthesis. While recent methods achieve impressive results with speaking heads, they frequently suffer from the `Regression-to-the-Mean' problem in listener motions, collapsing into static faces, and lack the parameter space for complex nonverbal motions. In this paper, we propose GDPO-Listener, a novel framework that achieves highly expressive speaking and listening motion generation. First, we.
