TKCAM: Text and Keyframe to Camera Trajectory Generation

Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS), 2026 Poster

We introduce TKCAM, a text- and keyframe-conditioned camera trajectory generation framework based on generative masked modeling. Camera dynamics are formulated as continuous 12-dimensional kinematic sequences and discretized into hierarchical motion tokens via a Residual Vector Quantizer (RVQ), enabling a two-stage masked transformer to reconstruct temporally coherent trajectories from free-form text prompts and sparse RGB keyframes. TKCAM significantly surpasses recent state-of-the-art baselines on FID, text-motion matching, and retrieval metrics (R@K).
