We define a Spine as a branching axial structure representing the shape and topology of a 3D objects limbs, and capturing the limbs correspondence and motion over time. … In general, our approach combines the objectives of generalized cylinders, 3D scanning, and markerless motion capture to generate baseline models from real puppets, animals, and human subjects.

DVFX 2003 Video Productions. The Digital Video Special Effects class of Spring 2003 (CS 4480) present their final productions. Students show and discuss the short video segments (less than 1 minutes each) that they have produced to showcase the technical special effects they have generated during the course of the semester. This class is an […]
Award#0205507 – ITR: Analysis of Complex Audio-Visual Events Using Spatially Distributed Sensors ABSTRACT We propose to develop a comprehensive framework for the joint analysis of audio-visual signals obtained from spatially distributed microphones and cameras. We desire solutions to the audio-visual sensing problem that will scale to an arbitrary number of cameras and microphones and can […]
