PAMOCAT: Automatic retrieval of specified postures
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to understand and model the non-verbal communicative conduct of humans, it seems fruitful to combine qualitative methods (Conversation Analysis) and quantitative techniques (motion capturing). A tool for data visualization and annotation is important as it constitutes a central interface between different research approaches and methodologies. We have developed the pre-annotation tool “PAMOCAT” that detects motion segments of individual joints. A sophisticated user interface enables the annotating person to easily find correlations between different joints and to export combined qualitative and quantitative annotations to standard annotation tools. Using this technique we are able to examine complex setups with three persons in tight conversation. A functionality to search for special postures of interest and display the frames in an overview makes it easy to analyze different phenomena in Conversation Analysis.

We studied the problem of automatic music transcription (AMT) for polyphonic music. AMT is an important task for music information retrieval because AMT results enable retrieving musical pieces, high-level annotation, demixing, etc. We attempted to transcribe a part played by an instrument specified by users (specified part tracking). Only two timbre models are required in the specified part tr...

متن کاملTopomorphological approach to automatic posture recognition in ballet dance
The proposed system aims at automatic identification of an unknown dance posture referring to the 20 primitive postures of ballet, simultaneously measuring the proximity of an unknown dance posture to a known primitive. A simple and novel six stage algorithm achieves the desired objective. Skin colour segmentation is performed on the dance postures, the output of which is dilated and is process...
