On the Representation of Human Motions and Distance-based Retargeting

181--189

Distance-based motion adaptation leads to the formulation of a dynamical Distance Geometry Problem (dynDGP) where the involved distances simultaneously represent the morphology of the animated character, as well as a possible motion. The explicit use of inter-joint distances allows us to easily verify the presence of joint contacts, which one generally wishes to preserve when adapting a given motion to characters having a different morphology. In this work, we focus our attention on suitable representations of human-like animated characters, and study the advantages (and disadvantages) in using some of them. In the initial works on distance-based motion adaptation, a 3ndimensional vector was employed for representing the positions of the n joints of the character at a given frame. Here, we investigate the use of another, very popular in computer graphics, representation that basically replaces every joint position in the three-dimensional space with a set of three sorted Euler angles. We show that the latter can in fact be useful for avoiding some of the artifacts that were observed in previous computational experiments, but we argue that this Euler-angle representation, from a motion adaptation point of view, does not seem to be the optimal one. By paying particular attention to the degrees of freedom of the studied representations, it turns out that a novel character representation, inspired by representations used in structural biology for molecules, may allow us to reduce the character degrees of freedom to their minimal value. As a result, statistical analysis on human motion databases, where the motions are given with this new representation, can potentially provide important insights on human motions. This study is an initial step towards the identification of a full set of constraints capable of ensuring that unnatural postures for humans cannot be created while tackling motion adaptation problems.
