RASA: Disentangled Spatial-Motional Priors for Cross-Identity Character Animation
Cross-identity character animation aims to drive a target identity from a reference image to follow the motion of a source character from a driving video. The core challenge lies in the inherent entanglement of two capabilities: cross-identity spatial mapping (aligning position, scale, and skeletal proportions) and motion control (refining joint articulation, volumetric consistency, and view coherence). We introduce Reference-Aware Structural Alignment (RASA), a framework that disentangles spatial mapping from motion control by injecting structured priors into a Diffusion Transformer (DiT). Ou
