TL;DR

HY-Motion 1.0 presents a billion-parameter Diffusion Transformer-based framework for text-to-motion generation, achieving state-of-the-art instruction-following and motion quality. It introduces a full-stage training paradigm (large-scale pretraining, high-quality fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning with human feedback and reward models) and a meticulous data pipeline that yields over 200 motion categories. The work demonstrates that data scale drives instruction understanding while data quality drives fidelity, and it provides a robust, open-source baseline for scalable, high-quality 3D motion generation. The combination of diffusion-based flow matching, a dual-stream Transformer architecture, and RL-based alignment offers a practical path toward commercially viable 3D motion generation systems and sets benchmarks for future scalability in the domain.

Abstract

We present HY-Motion 1.0, a series of state-of-the-art, large-scale, motion generation models capable of generating 3D human motions from textual descriptions. HY-Motion 1.0 represents the first successful attempt to scale up Diffusion Transformer (DiT)-based flow matching models to the billion-parameter scale within the motion generation domain, delivering instruction-following capabilities that significantly outperform current open-source benchmarks. Uniquely, we introduce a comprehensive, full-stage training paradigm -- including large-scale pretraining on over 3,000 hours of motion data, high-quality fine-tuning on 400 hours of curated data, and reinforcement learning from both human feedback and reward models -- to ensure precise alignment with the text instruction and high motion quality. This framework is supported by our meticulous data processing pipeline, which performs rigorous motion cleaning and captioning. Consequently, our model achieves the most extensive coverage, spanning over 200 motion categories across 6 major classes. We release HY-Motion 1.0 to the open-source community to foster future research and accelerate the transition of 3D human motion generation models towards commercial maturity.
