Evidence claims:
- [upstream_claim] README: framework for controllable human motion video generation with confidence-aware pose guidance and progressive latent fusion for long videos; ICML 2025 acceptance noted. · source: https://github.com/Tencent/MimicMotion
- [upstream_claim] README VRAM: 72-frame model needs 16GB (a 4060 Ti) for the 35s demo taking about 20 minutes on a 4090; 16-frame U-Net minimum 8GB; VAE decoder 16GB but can run on CPU. · source: https://github.com/Tencent/MimicMotion
- [sourced_fact] LICENSE: Apache License 2.0 except third-party components (diffusers, DWPose modified by Tencent, transformers, decord Apache-2.0; torch, torchvision, numpy BSD-3; OpenCV and einops MIT). · source: https://github.com/Tencent/MimicMotion/blob/main/LICENSE
- [upstream_claim] Research review verdict at export: reviewed (as of 2026-10-17). Recorded by the research pipeline, not a hub review outcome; evidence.review stays unreviewed until an independent reviewer records one.
