2D Articulated Body Tracking with Self-occultations Handling
Recently many methods for human articulated body tracking were proposed in the literature. These techniques are often computationally intensive and cannot be used for Human-Compute...

Bone Glow: An Improved Method for the Assignment of Weights for Mesh Deformation
Many real-time algorithms for mesh deformation driven by animation of an underlying skeleton make use of a set of per-bone weights associated with each vertex. There are few unguid...

Apperance-Based Tracking and Face Identification in Video Sequences
We present a technique for face recognition in videos. We are able to recognise a face in a video sequence, given a single gallery image. By assuming that the face is in an approxi...

Predicting Missing Markers to Drive Real-Time Centre of Rotation Estimation
This paper addresses the problem of real-time location of the joints or centres of rotation (CoR) of human skeletons in the presence of missing data. The data is assumed to be 3d m...

Body-Part Templates for Recovery of 2D Human Poses under Occlusion
Detection of humans and estimation of their 2D poses from a single image are challenging tasks. This is especially true when part of the observation is occluded. However, given a l...

A Generative Model for Motion Synthesis and Blending Using Probability Density Estimation
The main focus of this paper is to present a method of reusing motion captured data by learning a generative model of motion. The model allows synthesis and blending of cyclic moti...
