TL;DR: In this paper, various approaches based on bounding volume hierarchies, distance fields and spatial partitioning are discussed for collision detection of deformable objects in interactive environments for surgery simulation and entertainment technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global human walking model with real-time kinematic personification
TL;DR: This paper presents a human walking model built from experimental data based on a wide range of normalized velocities that allows a personification of the walking action in an interactive real-time context in most cases.
Proceedings Article
Joint-dependent local deformations for hand animation and object grasping
TL;DR: Algorithms and methods are presented for animating the hands of a synthetic actor that allow the land to move and grasp objects; they also compute deformations of the hand as it moves.

Computer Animation: Theory and Practice
TL;DR: The Development of Computer Animation in Various Organizations and Object Modelling in 3D Animation, Object-oriented and Actor Languages and Systems and Automatic Motion Control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abstract muscle action procedures for human face animation
TL;DR: A new way of controlling human face animation and synchronizing speech is proposed and a methodology for animating the face of synthetic actors based on three levels: the AMA-procedure level, the expression level and the script level.
