By Hyun Joon Shin ∗ and Jehee Lee Human motion is difficult to create and manipulate because of the high dimensionality and spatiotemporal nature of human motion data. Recently, the use of large collections of captured motion data has added increased realism in character animation. In order to make

Computer puppetry maps the movements of a performer to an animated character in real time. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive solution to the problem of transferring the observations of the motion capture sensors to an animated character whose size and proportion may be different than

Over the last two decades much has been learned about human ability to detect and discriminate information within local patches of image motion. Indeed, a model consisting of spatio-temporal motion energy detectors is an excellent descriptor of both human low-level motion perception and visual

, steering toward goals, avoiding obstacles, and adopting particular routes through the cluttered landscape? This basic problem has inspired a good deal of research on the optical information available to a moving observer and the visual perception of self-motion (Gibson, 1958/1998; Land, 1998; Lee, 1980

position, and orientation) relies on the temporal coherence in a domain-specific database of human motion. The database is pre-processed into an augmented motion graph that extends the motion graph [Lee et al. 2002] to handle scaling in velocity and two interacting characters. The search for the pose

have witnessed an upsurge of interest in visual grouping based on other time-dependent sources of visual information, including synchro-nized changes in luminance, in motion direction, and in figure/ ground relations. These various sources of temporal grouping information can be subsumed under

Designing a rich repertoire of behaviors for virtual humans is an important problem for virtual environments and computer games. One approach to designing such a repertoire is to collect motion capture data and pre-process it to form a structure that can be walked in various orders to re

Figure 1: Diverse locomotion outputs (in a happy style) synthesized by a linear mixture of combinatorial components decomposed from the 10 example set. When generating locomotion, it is particularly challenging to adjust the motion’s style. This paper introduces a component-based system for human

Abstract. A new approach to abnormal situations with regard for the heuristic regularities of human-operator thinking process is proposed. The regularities are revealed on basis of recording the motions of the humanoperator eyes over the information field of the control board and processing
