A Representation Of Selected Nonmanual Signals In American Sign Language, Jerry C. Schnepp
A Representation Of Selected Nonmanual Signals In American Sign Language, Jerry C. Schnepp
College of Computing and Digital Media Dissertations
Computer-generated three-dimensional animation holds great promise for synthesizing utterances in American Sign Language (ASL) that are not only grammatical, but believable by members of the Deaf community. Animation poses several challenges stemming from the massive amounts of data necessary to specify the movement of three-dimensional geometry, and there is no current system that facilitates the synthesis of nonmanual signals. However, the linguistics of ASL can aid in surmounting the challenge by providing structure and rules for organizing the data.
This work presents a first method for representing ASL linguistic and extralinguistic processes that involve the face. Any such representation must …
Classic Mosaics And Visual Correspondence Via Graph-Cut Based Energy Optimization, Yu Liu
Classic Mosaics And Visual Correspondence Via Graph-Cut Based Energy Optimization, Yu Liu
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Computer graphics and computer vision were traditionally two distinct research fields focusing on opposite topics. Lately, they have been increasingly borrowing ideas and tools from each other. In this thesis, we investigate two problems in computer vision and graphics that rely on the same tool, namely energy optimization with graph cuts.
In the area of computer graphics, we address the problem of generating artificial classic mosaics, still and animated. The main purpose of artificial mosaics is to help a user to create digital art. First we reformulate our previous static mosaic work in a more principled global optimization framework. Then, …
Visualising Forensic Data: Investigation To Court, Ken Fowle, Damian Schofield
Visualising Forensic Data: Investigation To Court, Ken Fowle, Damian Schofield
Australian Digital Forensics Conference
Visualisation is becoming increasingly important for understanding information, such as investigative data (for example: computing, medical and crime scene evidence) and analysis (for example: network capability assessment, data file reconstruction and planning scenarios). Investigative data visualisation is used to reconstruct a scene or item and is used to assist the viewer (who may well be a member of the general public with little or no understanding of the subject matter) to understand what is being presented. Analysis visualisations, on the other hand, are usually developed to review data, information and assess competing scenario hypotheses for those who usually have an …
