报告题目: Research Challenges in Character Animation
摘要: Character animation is the current bottleneck in Computer Graphics and creative media production. In this talk, we will look at some of the challenging problems in Character Animation, including data-driven animation, physics-based animation, and interactive animation systems. We will investigate these research directions with some of our own solutions published in recent years. If time permits, we will also briefly overview the PhD program of the department of Computer Science at the National University of Singapore.
