Abstract: In response to movement of an underlying structure, motion of complex objects connected to that structure may be simulated relatively quickly and without requiring extensive processing capabilities. A skeleton extraction method is used to simplify the complex object. Tracking is used to track the motion of the underlying structure, such as the user's head in a case where motion of hair is being simulated. Thus, the simulated motion is driven in response to the extent and direction of head or facial movement. A mass-spring model may be used to accelerate the simulation in some embodiments.

Abstract: Techniques related to key person recognition in multi-camera immersive video attained for a scene are discussed. Such techniques include detecting predefined person formations in the scene based on an arrangement of the persons in the scene, generating a feature vector for each person in the detected formation, and applying a classifier to the feature vectors to indicate one or more key persons in the scene.

Abstract: Techniques related to performing object or person association or correspondence in multi-view video are discussed. Such techniques include determining correspondences at a particular time instance based on separately optimizing correspondence sub-matrices for distance sub-matrices based on two-way minimum distance pairs between frame pairs, generating and fusing tracklets across time instances, and adjusting correspondence, after such tracklet processing, via elimination of outlier object positions and rearrangement of object correspondence.

Abstract: Example gesture matching mechanisms are disclosed herein. An example machine readable storage device or disc includes instructions that, when executed, cause programmable circuitry to at least: prompt a user to perform gestures to register the user, randomly select at least one of the gestures for authentication of the user, prompt the user to perform the at least one selected gesture, translate the gesture into an animated avatar for display at a display device, the animated avatar including a face, analyze performance of the gesture by the user, and authenticate the user based on the performance of the gesture.

Abstract: Techniques related to validating an image based 3D model of a scene are discussed. Such techniques include detecting an object within a captured image used to generate the scene, projecting the 3D model to a view corresponding to the captured image to generate a reconstructed image, and comparing image regions of the captured and reconstructed images corresponding to the object to validate the 3D model.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with animating and rendering an avatar are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include a facial mesh tracker to receive a plurality of image frames, detect facial action movements of a face and head pose gestures of a head within the plurality of image frames, and output a plurality of facial motion parameters and head pose parameters that depict facial action movements and head pose gestures detected, all in real time, for animation and rendering of an avatar. The facial action movements and head pose gestures may be detected through inter-frame differences for a mouth and an eye, or the head, based on pixel sampling of the image frames. The facial action movements may include opening or closing of a mouth, and blinking of an eye. The head pose gestures may include head rotation such as pitch, yaw, roll, and head movement along horizontal and vertical direction, and the head comes closer or goes farther from the camera. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
