Emergent behaviors in simulations require explanation, so that valid behaviors can be separated from design or coding errors. Validation of emergent behavior requires accumulation...
We seek to increase user confidence in simulations as they are adapted to meet new requirements. Our approach includes formal representation of uncertainty, lightweight validation,...

We present a method for controlling the motions of active deformable characters. As an underlying principle, we require that all motions be driven by internal deformations. We ach...

We present a method for inferring the behavior styles of character controllers from a small set of examples. We show that a rich set of behavior variations can be captured by dete...
Interactive drama allows people to participate actively in a dynamically unfolding story, by playing a character or by exerting directorial control. One of the central challenges f...
