Human Motion Synthesis by Motion Manifold Learning and Motion Primitive Segmentation
Abstract. We propose motion manifold learning and motion primitive segmentation framework for human motion synthesis from motion-captured data. High dimensional motion capture date are represented using a low dimensional representation by topology preserving network, which maps similar motion instances to the neighborhood points on the low dimensional motion manifold. Nonlinear manifold learning between a low dimensional manifold representation and high dimensional motion data provides a generative model to synthesize new motion sequence by controlling trajectory on the low dimensional motion manifold. We segment motion primitives by analyzing low dimensional representation of body poses through motion from motion captured data. Clustering techniques like k-means algorithms are used to find motion primitives after dimensionality reduction. Motion dynamics in training sequences can be described by transition characteristics of motion primitives. The transition matrix represents the temp...
