- W1510653303 abstract "Over the last years, there has been a lot of interest in the area of Interactive Virtual Humans(IVHs). Virtual characters who interact naturally with users in mixed realities have many differentapplications, such as interactive video games, virtual training and rehabilitation, or virtualheritage. The main purpose of using interactive virtual humans in such applications is to increasethe realism of the environment by adding life-like characters. The means by which thesecharacters perceive their environment and how they express themselves greatly influences howconvincing these characters are. The work presented in this thesis aims to improve the expressivecapabilities of virtual characters, notably the animation of IVHs.Because of the complexity of interaction, a high level of control is required over the faceand body motions of the virtual humans. In order to achieve this, current approaches try togenerate face and body motions from a high-level description. Although this indeed allows fora precise control over the movement of the virtual human, it is difficult to generate a naturallookingmotion from such a high-level description. Another problem that arises when animatingIVHs is that motions are not generated all the time. Therefore a flexible animation scheme isrequired that ensures a natural posture even when no animation is playing. Finally, becauseof the many different components that an Interactive Virtual Human consists of, the animationmodel should be as efficient as possible.In this thesis, we will present a new animation model, based on a combination of motionsynthesis from motion capture and a statistical analysis of prerecorded motion clips. As opposedto existing approaches that create new motions with limited flexibility, our model adapts existingmotions, by automatically adding dependent joint motions. This renders the animation morenatural, but since our model does not impose any conditions on the input motion, it can belinked easily with existing gesture synthesis techniques for IVHs.In order to assure a continuous realistic motion, a basic layer of motions, called idle motions,is always present. These motions are generated by sequencing prerecorded motion segmentsorganised in a graph. The path followed through this graph is controlled by high-levelconstraints, such as an emotional state. On top of that, small variations in posture are added sothat the character is never static. Because we use a linear representation for joint orientations,blending and interpolation is done very efficiently, resulting in an animation engine especiallysuitable for real-time applications." @default.
