A new star shines brightly in the field of artificial intelligence! Recently, Huawei Noah's Ark Lab and the Hong Kong University Natural Language Processing Group (HKU NLP Group) jointly released a new language model called Dream7B. This model is hailed as the most powerful open-source diffusion large language model to date. Dream7B not only surpasses existing diffusion language models in performance, but also rivals or even surpasses top autoregressive (AR) language models of similar scale in general capabilities, mathematics, code, and planning abilities.

In the field of 3D digital humans, research teams from Nanjing University, Fudan University, and Huawei Noah's Ark Lab have proposed innovative solutions to address the issues of multi-view consistency and insufficient emotional expressiveness. They developed the EmoTalk3D dataset, which includes calibrated multi-view videos, emotion annotations, and frame-by-frame 3D geometric information. By constructing a mapping framework from 'speech to geometry to appearance', the research team introduced a new method that enables the synthesis of 3D talking avatars with controllable emotions, significantly enhancing lip synchronization and rendering quality.
