Effective Exercise Instruction System Using Virtual Human
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)This study aims at developing an aerobics exercise instruction software for personal use by introducing an instruction program best fit to the physical conditions of respective exerciser. The software uses the combination ... -
2BeOn - Interactive Television Supporting Interpersonal Communication
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Interpersonal communication mediated by computer services supports the reinforcement and emergence of new communities brought together by leisure or work interests. This paper presents a workbench system that aims to study ... -
SPATIAL VIDEO Exploring Space Using Multiple Digital Videos
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)This paper pre sents and discusses a new approach to collect, organize and explore multiple digital videos on a spatial basis. We present a methodology based on direct video frame indexation to the real space represented ... -
LIVE@WEB.COM Using CBIR Technology in InteractiveWeb-TV
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)The increasing amount of internet based television broadcasts has lead to new approachs to interactivity in TV programs. We developed a system which is able to supply the viewer of the program upon interaction with information ... -
Interactive, Evolutionary Textured Sound Composition
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)We describe a system that maps the interaction between two people to control a genetic process for generating music. We start with a population of melodies encoded genetically. This population is allowed to breed every ... -
Screen Space: Depiction and the Space of Interactive Media
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)The spatial properties of digital interactive multimedia are analysed and contrasted with those of pictures, and of narrative feature films and factual television. These media have developed distinctive spatial methods and ... -
Non-Conventional Interfaces using Stamp Controllers
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Artists continue to search for new methods of creation of artworks. The trend to interactive multimedia installation work requires systems that allow participants to interact in subtle ways. The paper describes a number ... -
Buoy Indexing of Metric Feature Spaces for Fast Approximate Image Queries
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)A novel indexing scheme for solving the problem of nearest neighbor queries in generic metric feature spaces for content-based image retrieval is proposed to break the 'dimensionality curse.' The basis for the proposed ... -
Authentication of Volume Data Using Wavelet-Based Foveation
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)3D volume data has been increasingly used in many appli- cations. The digital nature of the data allows easy creation, copying and distribution. However, it also allows ease of manipulation which can enable wilful or ... -
DynaVideo - A Dynamic Video Distribution Service
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Most solutions proposed to implement audio and video distribution services have been designed for specific infrastructures or have been tailored to specific application requirements, such as stream and clients types which ... -
Content Based Retrieval of VRML Objects - An Iterative and Interactive Approach
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)We examine the problem of searching a database of three-dimensional objects (given in VRML) for objects similar to a given object. We introduce an algorithm which is both iterative and interactive. Rather than base the ... -
Abstractions in Multimedia Authoring: The MAVA Approach
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)The support of abstractions in authoring systems increases the efficiency of the specification of multimedia documents. Authoring based on a very low abstraction, for example script programming, is very complex and time ... -
Sobol Partial Distortion Algorithm for Fast Full Search in Block Motion Estimation
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Block motion estimation is a cpu intensive task for video encoding. Many fast algorithms have been developed to solve this problem, trying to improve both block searching and block matching. Some of them reduce the image ... -
Extended Format Definition and Quality-driven Format Negotiation in Multimedia Systems
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Multimedia middleware needs to support a wide variety of devices together with their respective data formats. This becomes increasingly relevant and difficult in a distributed environment where new devices and formats ... -
A Server-based Interactive Remote Walkthrough
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)This paper presents a server-based remote walkthrough system. The client is assumed to be a thin client, like a handset or a mobile device, with no strong processor but with some embedded video chip. The server holds the ... -
3D-dvshop: a 3D Dynamic Virtual Shop
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)In recent years, virtual rality has shown all its potential in a large spectrum of applications: training, simulation, CAD, and so on. Although existing technologies allow the creation of immersive virtual reality browsing ... -
Realising Real Time Multimedia Groupware on the Web
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Real-time audio and video conferencing has not yet been satisfactorily integrated into web-based groupware environments. Conferencing tools are at best only loosely linked to other parts of a shared working environment. ... -
Reusing Motions and Models in Animations
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Computer animated 3D models have been increasingly used in multimedia presentations because they can be viewed and manipulated directly in 3D. In this paper, we propose a database approach for this problem. Our main objective ... -
Adaptive Visualization of Distributed 3D Documents Using Image Streaming Techniques
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)With the emergence of open information spaces such as digital libraries, advanced techniques for interactive visualization of complex and protected 3D documents are needed. This paper presents a new visualization concept ... -
Story Networks: 'The medium is the message'; The content, your souvenir
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)Storytelling -- a fundamental mode of human communication -- has adapted in form, content, and technique as new expressive technologies have appeared and evolved. The past century has witnessed the growth of storytelling ...
