Wavelet-based facial motion capture for avatar animation
TL;DR: In this article, an image processing technique based on model graphs and bunch graphs that efficiently represent image features as jets is presented to animate an avatar image in accordance with the person's facial movements.

Serious video game effectiveness
Wee Ling Wong,Cuihua Shen,Luciano Nocera,Eduardo Carriazo,Fei Tang,Shiyamvar Bugga,Harishkumar Narayanan,Hua Wang,Ute Ritterfeld +8 more
TL;DR: A comparative study is described that thoroughly investigates the effects of interactivity and media richness on science learning among college students and discusses important results and implications yielded from comparisons among four conditions in the experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multimodality and interactivity: connecting properties of serious games with educational outcomes.
TL;DR: This study represents one of the first attempts to empirically test the educational impact of two important properties of serious games, multimodality and interactivity, through a partial 2 x 3 (interactive, noninteractive by high, moderate, low in multimodalities) factorial between-participants follow-up experiment.
Patent
Three-dimensional point processing and model generation
TL;DR: In this paper, a scene point cloud is processed and a solution to an inverse-function is determined to determine its source objects, and a primitive extraction process and a part matching process are used to compute the inverse function solution.

Method and system generating an avatar animation transform using a neutral face image
Luciano Nocera,Hartmut Neven +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and system for generating an animation transform using a neutral face image is presented, where the neutral face features are automatically found on the front and side head images using elastic bunch graph matching.
