....to characters. In order to do this, the animator should describe the scene in the intentional level, like a movie director tells human actors how to act. It is necessary to investigate how techniques from artificial intelligence (AI) and visuo linguistics can be of use in its implementation [3]. 2.2 Behavior Planning Behavioral characters (actors) should pass through a behavior planning module whose goal is to anticipate the animation before any frame is shot. Here actors are treated independently of their physical characteristics, considering only the interaction among them and with ....

....about the environment) The last step consists of a translation from the chosen route to a description, in our case a set of multimodal instructions suitable for different output devices. Because text only descriptions are notoriously inadequate for expressing complex spatial relationships [15], our goal is to generate multimedia route descriptions for different presentation devices. Depending on the device the presentations range from a virtual walkthrough presented by a virtual human presenter (supported by spatial utterances and metagraphics to complement each other) to simple ....
