Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

On scaling strategies for the full-body postural control of virtual mannequins

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Damien Maupu

Due to its intrinsic complexity. full-body postural input has been Mostly limited to off-line motion capture and to on-line Puppetry of a virtual character with little interaction with its environment (e.g. floor). The motion capture technology is now matu ...

Characterizing full-body reach duration across task and viewpoint modalities

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Damien Maupu

The full-body control of virtual characters is a promising technique for application fields such as Virtual Prototyping. However it is important to assess to what extent the user full-body behavior is modified when immersed in a virtual environment. In the ...

Improving the Believability of Virtual Characters Using Qualitative Gesture Analysis

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

This paper describes preliminary results of a research performed in the framework of the Enactive project (EU IST NoE Enactive). The aim of this research is to improve believability of a virtual character using qualitative analysis of gesture. Using techni ...

Generating, animating, and rendering varied individuals for real-time crowds

Jonathan Maim

To simulate realistic crowds of virtual humans in real time, three main requirements need satisfaction. First of all, quantity, i.e., the ability to simulate thousands of characters. Secondly, quality, because each virtual human composing a crowd needs to ...

Challenges in Crowd Simulation

Daniel Thalmann, Jonathan Maim, Helena Stephanie Grillon Le Gallennec, Barbara Yersin

The purpose of this paper is to identify the problems to solve in order to simulate real-time crowds in a Virtual Environment. We try to classify these problems and study how they have been addressed until now by the research community and our Lab in parti ...

Full-Body Avatar Control with Environment Awareness

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado, Daniel Raunhardt, Damien Maupu

Interactive control of virtual characters through full-body movement requires accurately reproducing a performer's motion while accounting for surrounding obstacles. The authors' approach, based on a prioritized inverse kinematics solver, satisfies marker ...
