We propose an algorithm to find piecewise linear skeletons of hand-written characters by using principal curves. The development of the method was inspired by the apparent similar...
Character animation in video games--whether manually keyframed or motion captured--has traditionally relied on codifying skeletons early in a game's development, and creating...

In this paper we present an interactive method for simulating deformable objects using skeletal constraints. We introduce a two-way coupling of a finite element model and a skelet...

We perform the task of shape recognition using a skeleton based method. Skeleton of the shape is considered as a free tree and is represented by a connectivity graph. Geometric fea...

We present a novel algorithm to jointly capture the motion and the dynamic shape of humans from multiple video streams without using optical markers. Instead of relying on kinemat...
