The Third HUMANS spans core problems in human modeling, including motion capture, 3D reconstruction from images and videos, and human–scene–object interaction, while situating these advances within the broader goal of developing human-centric world models capable of long-horizon behavior and interaction reasoning. As computer vision increasingly focuses on large-scale video modeling and interactive simulation, these capabilities become essential for representing people within dynamic environments. A central theme of the workshop is bridging recognition and generation, from reconstructing pose and shape to modeling motion dynamics and controllable synthesis. Progress in physics-aware modeling, multimodal alignment, and scalable data generation supports more coherent and predictive representations of humans in context, enabling applications such as XR, digital avatars, and interactive simulation.
