Information retrieval is an ever-evolving and crucial research domain. The
substantial demand for high-quality human motion data especially in online
acquirement has led to a surge in human motion research works. Prior works have
mainly concentrated on dual-modality learning, such as text and motion tasks,
but three-modality learning has been rarely explored. Intuitively, an extra
introduced modality can enrich a model's application scenario, and more
importantly, an adequate choice of the extra modality can also act as an
intermediary and enhance the alignment between the other two disparate
modalities. In this work, we introduce LAVIMO (LAnguage-VIdeo-MOtion
alignment), a novel framework for three-modality learning integrating
human-centric videos as an additional modality, thereby effectively bridging
the gap between text and motion. Moreover, our approach leverages a specially
designed attention mechanism to foster enhanced alignment and synergistic
effects among text, video, and motion modalities. Empirically, our results on
the HumanML3D and KIT-ML datasets show that LAVIMO achieves state-of-the-art
performance in various motion-related cross-modal retrieval tasks, including
text-to-motion, motion-to-text, video-to-motion and motion-to-video.

LAVIMO 是一个三模态学习的创新框架，通过加入人类中心视频作为额外模态，有效地弥补了文本和动作之间的差距，利用特殊设计的注意机制促进了文本、视频和动作模态之间的增强对齐和协同效应，在多个与动作相关的跨模态检索任务中实现了最先进的性能。
