3D Human Body Tracking using Deterministic Temporal Motion Models

Pascal Fua, Raquel Urtasun

By contrast, in this paper, we use temporal motion models based on Principal Component Analysis to formulate the tracking problem as one of minimizing differentiable objective functions. The differential structure of these functions is rich enough to yield ...

Embedding motion in model-based stochastic tracking

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Jean-Marc Odobez

Particle filtering (PF) is now established as one of the most popular methods for visual tracking. Within this framework, two assumptions are generally made. The first is that the data are temporally independent given the sequence of object states, and the ...

Motion likelihood and proposal modeling in Model-Based Stochastic Tracking

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Jean-Marc Odobez

Particle filtering is now established as one of the most popular methods for visual tracking. Within this framework, there are two important considerations. The first one refers to the generic assumption that the observations are temporally independent giv ...

Using biomechanical constraints to improve video-based motion capture

Lorna Herda

In motion capture applications whose aim is to recover human body postures from various input, the high dimensionality of the problem makes it desirable to reduce the size of the search-space by eliminating a priori impossible configurations. This can be c ...

Style-based Motion Synthesis

Daniel Thalmann, Pascal Fua, Ronan Boulic, Raquel Urtasun, Pascal Glardon

Representing motions as linear sums of principal components has become a widely accepted animation technique. While powerful, the simplest version of this approach is not particularly well suited to modeling the specific style of an individual whose motion ...

Interactive Motion Deformation with Prioritized Constraints

Ronan Boulic, Benoît Le Callennec

In this paper, we present an interactive motion deformation method to modify animations so that they satisfy a set of prioritized constraints. Our approach successfully handles the problem of retargetting, adjusting a motion, as well as adding significant ...

Motion tracking for human-robot interaction

Björn Jensen

This thesis aims at improving the perceptional side of interaction to enable the handling of more complex situations. For the Swiss National Exposition Expo.02 the robot RoboX and an event-driven interaction system have been designed by members of our lab. ...

Capturing human motion using body-fixed sensors: Outdoor measurement and clinical applications

Kamiar Aminian, Bijan Najafi

Motion capture is mainly based on standard systems using optic, magnetic or sonic technologies. In this paper, the possibility to detect useful human motion based on new techniques using different types of body-fixed sensors is shown. In particular, a comb ...

Hierarchical Implicit Surface Joint Limits for Human Body Tracking

Pascal Fua, Raquel Urtasun, Lorna Herda

To increase the reliability of existing human motion tracking algorithms, we propose a method for imposing limits on the underlying hierarchical joint structures in a way that is true to life. Unlike most existing approaches, we explicitly represent depend ...
