ABSTRACT
The power of expression such as accent in motion and movement of arms is an indispensable factor in dance performance because there is a large difference in appearance between natural dance and expressive motions. Needless to say, expressive dance motion makes a great impression on viewers. However, creating such a dance motion is challenging because most of the creators have little knowledge about dance performance. Therefore, there is a demand for a system that generates expressive dance motion with ease. Tsuruta et al. [2010] generated expressive dance motion by changing only the speed of input motion or altering joint angles. However, the power of expression was not evaluated with certainty, and the generated motion did not synchronize with music. Therefore, the generated motion did not always satisfy the viewers.

Automatic dance generation system considering sign language information
SIGGRAPH '16: ACM SIGGRAPH 2016 PostersIn recent years, thanks to the development of 3DCG animation editing tools (e.g. MikuMikuDance), a lot of 3D character dance animation movies are created by amateur users. However it is very difficult to create choreography from scratch without any ...
Procedural generation of Cuban dance motion
CGAMES '11: Proceedings of the 2011 16th International Conference on Computer GamesInverse kinematics greatly simplifies the animation of models: positioning the hand alone will position the entire arm. In some dance styles, the position of the feet, together with which foot the weight is on, determines much of the bending and ...
Target Acquisition vs. Expressive Motion: Dynamic Pitch Warping for Intonation Correction
The purpose of pitch correction is to assist a musician in playing notes with accuracy and precision, without preventing expressive pitch variations. This study presents and examines a new method for automatic pitch correction: Dynamic Pitch Warping (...
