  • Autoregressive (AR) models offer stable and efficient training, but standard next-token prediction is not well aligned with the temporal structure required for text-conditioned motion generation. We introduce MoScale, a next-scale AR framework that generates motion hierarchically from coarse to fine temporal resolutions. By providing global semantics at the coarsest scale and refining them progressively, MoScale establishes a causal hierarchy better suited for long-range motion structure. To improve robustness under limited text-motion data, we further incorporate cross-scale hierarchical refinement for improving per-scale initial predictions and in-scale temporal refinement for selective bidirectional re-prediction. MoScale achieves SOTA text-to-motion performance with high training efficiency, scales effectively with model size, and generalizes zero-shot to diverse motion generation and editing tasks.
