Human Motion and Animation

"How can we animate 3D-characters from a movie script or move robots by simply telling them what we would like them to do?" "How unstructured and complex can we make a sentence and still generate plausible movements from it?" These are questions that need to be answered in the long-run, as the field is still in its in…

Mechanical figures that mimic human motions continue to entertain us and capture our imagination. Creating such automata requires expertise in motion planning, knowledge of mechanism design, and familiarity with fabrication constraints. Thus, automaton design remains restricted to only a handful of experts. We propose…

We propose a novel framework for learning many-to-many statistical mappings from musical measures to dance figures towards generating plausible music-driven dance choreographies. We obtain music-to-dance mappings through use of four statistical models: 1) musical measure models, representing a many-to-one relation, ea…

The current methods of training medical personnel to provide emergency medical care have several important shortcomings. For example, in the training of wound debridement techniques, animal models are used to gain experience treating traumatic injuries. We propose an alternative approach by creating a three-dimensiona…

People and animals use various kinds of motion in a multitude of ways to communicate their ideas and affective state, such as their moods or emotions. Further, people attribute affect and personalities to movements of even non-life like entities based solely on the style of their motions, e.g., the locomotion style of…

A deep generative model that describes human motions can benefit a wide range of fundamental computer vision and graphics tasks, such as providing robustness to video-based human pose estimation, predicting complete body movements for motion capture systems during occlusions, and assisting key frame animation with pla…

We present an interactive design system to create functional mechanical objects. Our computational approach allows novice users to retarget an existing mechanical template to a user-specified input shape. Our proposed representation for a mechanical template encodes a parameterized mechanism, mechanical constraints th…
