  • Deep Learning of Neuromuscular Control for Biomechanical Human Animation
    Deep Learning of Neuromuscular Control For Biomechanical Human Animation Masaki Nakada? and Demetri Terzopoulos Computer Science Department University of California, Los Angeles Abstract. Increasingly complex physics-based models enhance the real- ism of character animation in computer graphics, but they pose difficult motor control challenges. This is especially the case when controlling a biomechanically simulated virtual human with an anatomically real- istic structure that is actuated in a natural manner by a multitude of contractile muscles. Graphics researchers have pursued machine learn- ing approaches to neuromuscular control, but traditional neural network learning methods suffer limitations when applied to complex biomechan- ical models and their associated high-dimensional training datasets. We demonstrate that \deep learning" is a useful approach to training neu- romuscular controllers for biomechanical character animation. In par- ticular, we propose a deep neural network architecture that can effec- tively and efficiently control (online) a dynamic musculoskeletal model of the human neck-head-face complex after having learned (offline) a high-dimensional map relating head orientation changes to neck muscle activations. To our knowledge, this is the first application of deep learn- ing to biomechanical human animation with a muscle-driven model. 1 Introduction The modeling of graphical characters based on human anatomy is becoming increasingly important in the field of computer animation. Progressive fidelity in biomechanical modeling should, in principle, result in more realistic human animation. Given realistic biomechanical models, however, we must confront a variety of difficult motor control problems due to the complexity of human anatomy. In conjunction with the modeling of skeletal muscle [1,2], existing work in biomechanical human modeling has addressed the hand [3,4,5], torso [6,7,8], face [9,10,11], neck [12], etc.

  • Joseph Henry
    MEMOIR JOSEPH HENRY. SIMON NEWCOMB. BEAD BEFORE THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OP SCIENCES, APRIL 21, 1880. (1) BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF JOSEPH HENRY. In presenting to the Academy the following notice of its late lamented President the writer feels that an apology is due for the imperfect manner in which he has been obliged to perform the duty assigned him. The very richness of the material has been a source of embarrassment. Few have any conception of the breadth of the field occupied by Professor Henry's researches, or of the number of scientific enterprises of which he was either the originator or the effective supporter. What, under the cir- cumstances, could be said within a brief space to show what the world owes to him has already been so well said by others that it would be impracticable to make a really new presentation without writing a volume. The Philosophical Society of this city has issued two notices which together cover almost the whole ground that the writer feels competent to occupy. The one is a personal biography—the affectionate and eloquent tribute of an old and attached friend; the other an exhaustive analysis of his scientific labors by an honored member of the society well known for his philosophic acumen.* The Regents of the Smithsonian Institution made known their indebtedness to his administration in the memorial services held in his honor in the Halls of Congress. Under these circumstances the onl}*- practicable course has seemed to be to give a condensed resume of Professor Henry's life and works, by which any small occasional gaps in previous notices might be filled.

The system consists of two key components – namely, the predic- tion And-Or graph (AOG) model for rec- ognizing and localizing concepts of inter- est in input data, and the XAI model for providing explanations to the user about the AOG’s predictions. In this work, we focus on the XAI model specified to in- Figure 1: Two frames (scenes) of a video: (a) teract with the user in natural language, top-left image (scene1) shows two persons sitting whereas the AOG’s predictions are consid- at the reception and others entering the audito- ered given and represented by the corre- rium and (b) top-right (scene2) image people run- sponding parse graphs (pg’s) of the AOG. ning out of an auditorium.

Key Decisions The ExCom voted to move $100k of operating funds to an endowment for a new award. The ExCom voted that a new name (not Otto Laporte) should be chosen for this award. In the coming year, the Award committee (currently the Fluid Dynamics Prize committee) should establish the award criteria, making sure to distinguish the criteria from those associated with the Batchelor prize. The committee should suggest appropriate wording for the award application and make a recommendation on the naming of the award. The ExCom voted to move Newsletter publication to the first weeks of June and December each year. The ExCom voted to continue the Ad Hoc Committee on Media and Public Relations for two more years (through 2010). The ExCom voted that $15,000 per year in 2009 and 2010 be allocated for Media and Public Relations activities. Most of these funds would be applied toward continuing to use AIP media services in support of news releases and Virtual Pressroom activities related to the annual DFD meeting. Meeting Discussion 1.

We introduce tiny- graphics.js, a new software library for implementing educational WebGL projects in the classroom. To mitigate the difficulty of creating graphics-enabled websites and online games, we furthermore introduce the Encyclopedia of Code|a world wide web framework that encourages visitors to learn graphics, build educational graphical demos and articles, host them online, and organize them by topic. We provide our own examples that include custom educational games and tutorial articles, which are already being successfully employed to ease our undergraduate graphics students into the course material. Some of our modules expose students to new graphics techniques, while others are prototypes for new modes of online learning, collaboration, and computing. These include our \Active Textbooks" (educational 3D demos or games embedded in literate-programming-like articles).

    From the collection of the n z m o PreTinger JJibrary San Francisco, California 2006 / A CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY OF ELECTRICAL DEVELOPMENT FROM 600 B.C. PRICE $2.00 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION 155 EAST 44th STREET NEW YORK 17, N. Y. Copyright 1946 National Electrical Manufacturers Association Printed in U. S. A. Excerpts from this book may be used without permission PREFACE presenting this Electrical Chronology, the National Elec- JNtrical Manufacturers Association, which has undertaken its compilation, has exercised all possible care in obtaining the data included. Basic sources of information have been search- ed; where possible, those in a position to know have been con- sulted; the works of others, who had a part in developments referred to in this Chronology, and who are now deceased, have been examined. There may be some discrepancies as to dates and data because it has been impossible to obtain unchallenged record of the per- son to whom should go the credit. In cases where there are several claimants every effort has been made to list all of them. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association accepts no responsibility as being a party to supporting the claims of any person, persons or organizations who may disagree with any of the dates, data or any other information forming a part of the Chronology, and leaves it to the reader to decide for him- self on those matters which may be controversial. No compilation of this kind is ever entirely complete or final and is always subject to revisions and additions. It should be understood that the Chronology consists only of basic data from which have stemmed many other electrical developments and uses.

  • Joseph Saxton
    MEMOIR OP JOSEPH SAXTON. 1799-1873. BY JOSEPH HENRY. HEAD BEFOEB THB NATIONAL ACADEMY, OCT. 4,1874. 28T BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF JOSEPH SAXTON. MR. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN OF THE ACADEMY :— AT the last session of the National Academy of Sciences I was appointed to prepare an account of the life and labors of our lamented associate, Joseph Saxton, whose death we have been called to mourn. From long acquaintance and friendly relations with the deceased, the discharge of the duty thus devolved upon me has been a labor of love, but had he been personally unknown to me, the preparation of the eulogy would have been none the less a sacred duty, which I was not at liberty on any account to neglect. It is an obligation we owe to the Academy and the world to cherish the memory of our departed associates; their reputation is a precious inheritance to the Academy which exalts its character and extends its usefulness. Man is a sympathetic and imitative being, and through these characteristics of his nature the memories of good men produce an important influence on posterity, and therefore should be cherished and perpetuated. Moreover, the certainty of having a just tribute paid to our memory after our departure is one of the most powerful inducements to purity of life and propriety of deportment. The object of the National Academy is the advancement of science, and no one is considered eligible for membership who has not made positive additions to the sum of human knowledge, or in other words, has not done something to entitle him to the appellation of scientific.
