Research activities
Our research activities aim at gesture modeling and human motion generation in a computer graphics context. Our works are based on an Analysis/Synthesis workflow. From he observation of human motion, our objectives are to identify common mechanisms in sensorimotor behavior so as to build artificial entities endowed with similar abilities.
Keywords: Human Motion Modelling, Gesture Representation and Specification, Computer Animation and Simulation, Analysis/Synthesis of Movement
Applications: Communicative Humanoids, Virtual Signer, Crowd Motion Simulation, Musical Gesture Simulation and Visualizatio
