Practical overview
When it fits
Use Interdiff when a research project needs a PyTorch implementation focused on anticipating 3D human-object interactions, including whole-body movement and dynamic objects.
Who it is for
- Researchers studying 3D human-object interaction and motion prediction.
- Animation researchers prototyping interactions between whole-body human motion and dynamic objects.
Documented uses
- Explore predictions of future human and object motion together.
- Prototype research workflows for 3D interactions involving moving objects.
- Use provided training and evaluation code and checkpoints as a basis for research.
Requirements & limits
The repository is public and its code is distributed under the MIT License. Dependencies and datasets may have separate licenses.
- The repository provides training and evaluation code, checkpoints, and data-preparation materials.
- Setup documentation offers Python 3.7 and Python 3.8 dependency routes; some packages may require source builds.
- The project depends on libraries and datasets with their own licensing terms.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Prepare an Interdiff Python environment
Create an environment using one of the repository's documented dependency specifications.
Before you start
- Python 3.7 for the requirements.txt-based setup, or Python 3.8 for the environment.yml alternative.
- Some packages, including psbody-mesh and human-body-prior, may need to be built from source.
Steps
Choose the requirements.txt-based Python 3.7 setup or the Python 3.8 environment.yml setup.
For the latter, use the documented command: conda env create -f environment.yml.
Consult the detailed implementation README for additional implementation instructions.
Expected outcome
A project environment prepared from one of the repository's stated dependency specifications.
Guide limitations
- The documentation notes that some packages may need source builds.
- This setup guidance does not cover running training or evaluation.
