Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Visual relocalization tasks have important application value in fields such as digital twin and augmented reality. The current mainstream methods still face challenges such as mismatch between coordinate regression scale and receptive field and insufficient attention to local information. A visual relocalization method that combines region classification and local feature enhancement is proposed. The coordinate regression problem in large space is transformed into a multi-region classification problem and a coordinate regression problem inside a small scene, which significantly reduces the uncertainty of coordinate regression and makes the network globally have a large receptive field.

Diffusion Model For Human Motion Generation With Fine-Grained Text And Spatial Control Signals, Binze Jiang, Wenfeng Song, Xia Hou, Shuai Li

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: To improve the accuracy, controllability, and realism of text-driven human motion generation, a novel method is proposed that integrates fine-grained textual semantics with spatial control signals. Within the diffusion model framework, both global text tokens and body-part-level local tokens are introduced. These are encoded using CLIP to obtain corresponding features, which are then fed into the motion diffusion model to enable fine control over different body parts. Spatial guidance is used to dynamically adjust joint positions during the diffusion denoising process, ensuring that the generated motion adheres to spatial constraints. Realism guidance is incorporated to enhance the naturalness and …

Material Reconstruction From Single Image Combining Neural Networks With Singular Value Decomposition, Zhiqiang Li, Xukun Shen, Yong Hu, Xueyang Zhou, Yifan Chen

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The tabulated BRDFs (bidirectional reflectance distribution function) can realistically reproduce the surface appearance of objects. However, due to their high-dimensional characteristics and the fact that a single planar image contains limited reflectance information and small differences, methods for estimating tabulated BRDFs typically require complex equipment or the capture of multiple images. To address this issue, a method is proposed for reconstructing material properties from a single image by combining neural networks with singular value decomposition. The singular value decomposition is introduced to compress the material into a lower-dimensional space. The task of solving the tabulated BRDFs is simplified to …

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Full-body co-speech gesture generation significantly enhances the interactivity of virtual digital humans, requiring generated gestures to not only align accurately with speech but also demonstrate realistic full-body dynamics. To address limitations of existing methods—Transformer-based approaches often overlook temporal features of action sequences, while diffusion model-based ones inadequately capture spatial correlations between body parts, a full-body action generation method integrating diffusion models, Mamba, and attention mechanisms is proposed. We introduce the spatial self-attention-temporal state space model (STMamba Layer) as the core of denoising network to extract
inter-part spatial features and intra-part temporal features, thus enhancing action quality and diversity. …

Law Schools Should Teach How To Integrate Ai Tools Into Practice, Robert A. Mackenzie, David J. Reiss

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Now that artificial intelligence tools for lawyers are widely available, we decided to integrate them for a semester in our Entrepreneurship Clinic. We have some important takeaways for legal education in general and the transactional practice of law in particular.

First, employers and educators need to account for law students who already are using AI tools in their legal work and guide new lawyers about how to use such tools appropriately.

Second, different AI products lead to wildly different results. Just demonstrating this to law students is very valuable, as it dispels the notion that AI responses can replace their …

Are You An Ai Convert Yet?, Essraa Nawar

Library Articles and Research

"At one point that evening, after the conversation had moved from travel to work and then to responsibility, Marium paused and asked me what I did. It was not the transactional question that so often fills conference hallways, asked politely and quickly abandoned, but a genuine inquiry. When I told her that I chair the Artificial Intelligence Committee at Leatherby Libraries at Chapman University, and that my work centers on AI literacy, governance, and institutional decision-making rather than promotion or blind adoption, something subtle changed."
