Human motion capture (mocap) data, recording the movement from markers attached to specific joints, has gradually become the most popular solution of animation production. However, the raw motion data are often corrupted due to joint occlusion, marker shedding, and the lack of equipment precision, which severely limits the performance in real-world applications. Since human motion is essentially sequential data, the latest methods resort to variants of long short-time memory network (LSTM) to solve related problems, but most of them tend to obtain visually unreasonable results. This is mainly because these methods hardly capture long-term dependencies and cannot explicitly utilize relevant context. To address these issues, we propose a deep bidirectional attention network which can not only capture the long-term dependencies but also adaptively extract relevant information at each time step. Moreover, the proposed model, embedded attention mechanism in the bidirectional LSTM structure at the encoding and decoding stages, can decide where to borrow information and use it to recover the corrupted frame effectively. Extensive experiments on CMU database demonstrate that the proposed model consistently outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in terms of recovery accuracy and visualization.
