505 - Gracefully Air-Written: Enhancing the Legibility and Style Consistency of In-Air Handwriting

Space computing devices expand handwritten input from two-dimensional screens into three-dimensional space, providing an unrestricted interactive experience. Due to the high degree of freedom and lack of tactile feedback in in-air handwriting, handwritten characters not only become less legible but also lose the writer's personal style. This paper proposes a method for reconstructing discrete in-air handwriting using continuous diffusion models, capturing the writing process and style from a small number of user-provided handwritten tracks and images, to restore the legibility of characters and mimics the writer's style. We represent handwritten track data in binary form and model it with continuous diffusion models, recovering discrete handwritten track data through threshold processing. Our approach reconstructs in-air handwritten characters in two stages. During the content preservation phase, we propose a partial noise injection strategy based on reference sequence modeling, using the content information of the original character as a guiding condition to maintain content consistency in handwritten character. In the style aggregation phase, we adaptively fuse the visual style of the handwritten in the image modality with the dynamic writing process in the sequence modality, overcoming issues of insufficient style capture due to noise interference in the backward process. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method.
