Traditionally, region-based image and video coding have been addressed only in the context of low and very low bit-rate coding. However, one of the most interesting by-products of...
We present a method to generate mouth animations coupled with moderate movements of the head. Our method uses a coarse 2D textured mesh representation of images. With hardware tex...
This paper presents a problem-independent framework that uni es various mechanisms for solving discrete constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) problems whose functions are not ne...
Many believe that the most important result to come out of the last ten years of neural network research is the significant change in perspective in the neuroscience community tow...
Prior research into embodied interface agents has found that users like them and find them engaging. In this paper, we argue that embodiment can serve an even stronger function if...
