چکیده

MPEG-4 is an ISO/IEC standard developed by MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group). MPEG-4 provides standard and unified ways to: Represent units of audiovisual contents, called “media objects”. Describe the composition of these objects to create compound media objects that form audio visual scenes; Multiplex and synchronize the data associated with media objects, to transport them over network channels, providing appropriate QoS; and Interact with the audiovisual scene on the receiver’s end.

Advanced animation framework for virtual character within the MPEG-4 standard

This paper presents an advanced animation framework for virtual character within the MPEG-4 standard. The Bonebased Animation (BBA) specifications are described and it is shown how they extend the MPEG-4 Face and Body Animation (FBA) specifications. Specifically, the scene graph concept, the BBA nodes related to bone and muscle modeling, the animation parameters and the compression capabilities...

A Conversational Avatar Framework for Digital Interactive StoryTelling

Digital Interactive Storytelling (DIS) is a relatively novel area of computer entertainment which aims at investigating interactive applications capable of generating consistent, emergent and rich stories. To provide new solutions for DIS, we have proposed a novel multi-agent DIS framework, DIEGESIS, which includes agents' coordination and new planning and replanning solutions for DIS. A natura...

Critic review on MPEG-4 face and body animation

The MPEG-4 Face and Body Animation (FBA) specifications aims at standardizing an interchange format for specifying virtual face and body modeling and related animation parameters. The scene graph concept, the FBA nodes, semantics and representation of the animation parameters as well as compression and streaming capabilities are successively addressed. The compatibility between virtual characte...

MPEG-4 facial animation in video analysis and synthesis

MPEG-4 supports the definition, encoding, transmission, and animation of 3-D head and body models. These features can be used for a variety of different applications ranging from low bit-rate video coding to character and avatar animation. In this paper, an entire system for the analysis of facial expressions from image sequences and their synthesis is presented. New methods for the estimation ...

A MAYA Exporting Plug-in for MPEG-4 FBA Human Characters

The aim of this paper is to present a method and a tool to extract the full set of information from an animated character designed in Maya (animatable body only). The Maya plug-in generates the appropriate data as specified in the MPEG-4 FBA standard [2]. The result is composed of three different data sets: the BDP (Body Definition Parameters) describing the character geometry, the BAP (Body An...

Text2Video: Text-Driven Facial Animation using MPEG-4

We present a complete system for the automatic creation of talking head video sequences from text messages. Our system converts the text into MPEG-4 Facial Animation Parameters and synthetic voice. A user selected 3D character will perform lip movements synchronized to the speech data. The 3D models created from a single image vary from realistic people to cartoon characters. A voice selection ...
