用多尺度意图扩散让机器人听懂文字指令并自然行动

Enabling physics-based humanoids to execute diverse behaviors from high-level textual commands remains a significant challenge. Existing methods typically follow either a two-stage paradigm that combines kinematic motion generation with physics-based tracking, or an end-to-end imitation-learning paradigm that directly generates actions from text. However, the former suffers from the inherent domain shift between kinematic generation and physics-based tracking, while the latter struggles with the substantial modality gap between textual commands and low-level actions, limiting effective semantic alignment. Notably, humanoid states encode rich motion dynamics that are more semantically aligned with textual descriptions than low-level actions, making them a natural basis for deriving behavioral intent. Building upon this insight, we propose MIND, a novel end-to-end diffusion framework for text-driven physics-based humanoid control that leverages behavioral intent as a semantic bridge between textual commands and low-level actions. At its core, MIND introduces a multi-scale intent diffusion mechanism, where a holistic intent predictor captures global behavioral dynamics to guide overall behavior synthesis, while an immediate intent predictor provides step-wise, fine-grained signals for local behavior refinement at each diffusion step. This hierarchical intent formulation imposes a structured inductive bias for humanoid control, improving semantic alignment and behavioral naturalness. Furthermore, MIND encodes humanoid states into a latent space to enable more effective semantic intent modeling. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MIND outperforms existing methods and synthesizes coherent, physically plausible, and semantically aligned humanoid behaviors from text commands.
