Deformable avatars are virtual humans that deform themselves during
motion. This implies facial deformations, body deformations at
joints, and global deformations. Simulating deformable avatars
ensures a more realistic simulation of virtual humans. The research
requires models for capturing of geometrie and kinematic data, the
synthesis of the realistic human shape and motion, the
parametrisation and motion retargeting, and several appropriate
deformation models. Once a deformable avatar has been created and
animated, the researcher must model high-level behavior and
introduce agent technology. The book can be divided into 5
subtopics: 1. Motion capture and 3D reconstruction 2. Parametrie
motion and retargeting 3. Musc1es and deformation models 4. Facial
animation and communication 5. High-level behaviors and autonomous
agents Most of the papers were presented during the IFIP workshop
"DEFORM '2000" that was held at the University of Geneva in
December 2000, followed by "A V AT ARS 2000" held at EPFL,
Lausanne. The two workshops were sponsored by the "Troisu!me Cycle
Romand d'Informatique" and allowed participants to discuss the
state of research in these important areas. x Preface We would like
to thank IFIP for its support and Yana Lambert from Kluwer Academic
Publishers for her advice. Finally, we are very grateful to Zerrin
Celebi, who has prepared the edited version of this book and Dr.
Laurent Moccozet for his collaboration.
