Our framework can learn a rich and f lexible latent representation of skills and a skill-conditioned generative control policy from a diverse set of unorganized motion sequences, which enables the generation of realistic human behaviors by sampling in the lat ent space and allows high-level control policies to reuse the learned skil ls to accomplish a variety of downstream tasks. In the training of Control VAE, we employ a learnable world model to realize direct supervision of t he latent space and the control policy. This world model effectively captu res the unknown dynamics of the simulation system, enabling efficient mode l-based learning of high-level downstream tasks. We also learn a state-con ditional prior distribution in the VAE-based generative control policy, wh ich generates a skill embedding that outperforms the non-conditional prior s in downstream tasks. We demonstrate the effectiveness of Control VAE usi ng a diverse set of tasks, which allows realistic and interactive control of the simulated characters.\n\nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, ON-DEM AND ACCESS\n\nLanguage: ENGLISH\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON, ON-DEMAND URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=papers_144&sess=sess15 4 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
