A synthetic-vision based steering approach for crowd simulation
In the everyday exercise of controlling their locomotion, humans rely on their optic flow of the perceived environment to achieve collision-free navigation. In crowds, in spite o...

Smooth movers: perceptually guided human motion simulation
To animate a character, a number of poses are displayed in quick succession in order to create the illusion of motion. For most real-time applications, such as games, the pose upd...

Feature-based locomotion controllers
This paper introduces an approach to control of physics-based characters based on high-level features of movement, such as centerof-mass, angular momentum, and end-effectors. Obje...

A decision network framework for the behavioral animation of virtual humans
We introduce a framework for advanced behavioral animation in virtual humans, which addresses the challenging open problem of simulating social interactions between pedestrians in...

Adapting simulated behaviors for new characters
This paper describes an algorithm for automatically adapting existing simulated behaviors to new characters. Animating a new character is difficult because a control system tuned...
