# 🎵 MACE-Dance Dataset
|
| 15 |
+
|
| 16 |
+
[**Project Page**](https://macedance.github.io/) | [**Paper**](https://huggingface.co/papers/2512.18181) | [**Code**](https://github.com/AMAP-ML/MACE-Dance)
|

+
|

+
**MACE-Dance** is a large-scale dataset for **music-driven dance video generation**, released with the paper:
|
| 19 |
+
|
| 20 |
+
> **MACE-Dance: Motion-Appearance Cascaded Experts for Music-Driven Dance Video Generation**
|
| 21 |
+
|
| 22 |
+
It is designed to support research on generating dance videos that are both:
|
| 23 |
+
|
| 24 |
+
- 🕺 **kinematically plausible**
|
| 25 |
+
- 🎨 **visually coherent**
|
| 26 |
+
- 🎼 **well aligned with music**

## ✨ Overview
|
| 31 |
+
|
| 32 |
+
The dataset (referred to as **MA-Data** in the paper) contains approximately:
|
| 33 |
+
|
| 34 |
+
- **70K** dance video clips
|
| 35 |
+
- **5–10 seconds** per clip
|
| 36 |
+
- **116 hours** in total
|
| 37 |
+
- **20+ dance genres**
|
| 38 |
+
|
| 39 |
+
The data is curated from two complementary sources:
|
| 40 |
+
|
| 41 |
+
### 1. Motion-centric subset
|
| 42 |
+
- Derived from **FineDance**
|
| 43 |
+
- Front-view rendered dance videos from 3D motion sequences
|
| 44 |
+
- Focused on **professional dance motion quality**
|
| 45 |
+
|
| 46 |
+
### 2. Appearance-centric subset
|
| 47 |
+
- Collected from high-engagement internet dance videos
|
| 48 |
+
- Focused on **visual appearance diversity and realism**
|
| 49 |
+
|
| 50 |
+
This design helps benchmark both **motion quality** and **appearance quality** in music-driven dance video generation.

## 🧹 Data Curation
|
| 68 |
+
|
| 69 |
+
For the in-the-wild subset, we apply a multi-stage cleaning pipeline:
|
| 70 |
+
|
| 71 |
+
- ✂️ shot boundary detection
|
| 72 |
+
- 🚶 motion filtering
|
| 73 |
+
- 🧍 single-person filtering
|
| 74 |
+
- ⏱️ clip segmentation into 5–10 second windows
|
| 75 |
+
|
| 76 |
+
This improves data quality for the music-driven dance generation task.
