Automatic Construction of a Minimum Size Motion Graph Liming Zhao, Aline Normoyle, Sanjeev Khanna and Alla Safonova. The performance of a motion graph relies heavily on selecting a good set of motions to build the graph. This motion set needs to contain enough motions to achieve good connectivity and smooth transitions. At the same time, the motion set needs to be small for fast motion synthesis. Therefore we propose an automatic approach to select a good motion set. We cast the motion selection problem as a search for a minimum size sub-graph from a large motion graph and propose an efficient algorithm, called the Iterative Sub-graph Algorithm (ISA), to find a good approximation to the optimal solution. |
