FaceMamba: Geometry‐Aware Mamba for Efficient Speech‐Driven 3D Facial Animation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Speech‐driven 3D facial animation plays a pivotal role in immersive digital human applications. Recent works have explored Mamba‐based sequence modeling as an efficient alternative to Transformer, but they often suffer from limited cross‐modal alignment and insufficient control over fine‐grained facial deformations.
