Motion Patterns: Signal Interpretation towards the Laban Movement Analysis Semantics
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work studies the performance of different signal features regarding the qualitative meaning of Laban Movement Analysis semantics. Motion modeling is becoming a prominent scientific area, with research towards multiple applications. The theoretical representation of movements is a valuable tool when developing such models. One representation growing particular relevance in the community is Laban Movement Analysis (LMA). LMA is a movement descriptive language which was developed with underlying semantics. Divided in components, its qualities are mostly divided in binomial extreme states. One relevant issue to this problem is the interpretation of signal features into Laban semantics. There are multiple signal processing algorithms for feature generation, each providing different characteristics. We implemented some, covering a range of those measure categories. The results for method comparison are provided in terms of class separability of the LMA space state.

Laban Movement Analysis towards Behavior Patterns
This work presents a study about the use of Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) as a robust tool to describe human basic behavior patterns, to be applied in human-machine interaction. LMA is a language used to describe and annotate dancing movements and is divided in components [1]: Body, Space, Shape and Effort. Despite its general framework is widely used in physical and mental therapy [2], it has ...
متن کاملParameterizing Interpersonal Behaviour with Laban Movement Analysis
In this paper we propose a probabilistic model to parameterize human interactive behaviour from human motion. To Support the model taxonomy, we use Laban Movement Analysis (LMA), proposed by Rudolph Laban [11], to characterize human non-verbal communication. In interpersonal communication, body motion carries a lot of meaningful information, useful to analyse group dynamic behaviors in a wide r...

This study examined the relationship between human body movements and emotion based on Laban Movement Analysis (LMA). Ten participants participated in the experiment in which they stayed at a small resting room while hearing pleasant or unpleasant sounds. After the stay at the room, the participants rated their subjective emotional states. Participants’ body movement were also recorded with fou...
متن کاملEmotion Detection from Body Motion of Human Form Robot Based on Laban Movement Analysis
A set of physical feature values, called Laban feature set, is proposed in order to explain observers impression of bodily expression. The design concept of the Laban feature value set is based on Laban Movement Analysis, which is a famous theory in body movement psychology. In this paper, for practial application to Human-Agent Interaction(HAI), we consider adopt Human Form Robot (HFR) as a mo...
