Combining Intelligent Agents and Animation

چکیده
This paper reviews FreeWill and other AI architectures that have contributed to the ideas, which underlie it. “FreeWill” proposes and implements a cognitive architecture designed for easy creation of animated scenes with many autonomous agents interacting in various ways. The generation of animated human figures especially in crowd scenes has many applications in such domains as the special effects industry, computer games or for the simulation of the evacuation from crowded areas. Currently such scenes have to be created by human animators using dedicated software packages. This is both expensive and time-consuming. FreeWill combines and extends two existing architectures – Funge’s cognitive architecture and the recent SAC concept. Additionally it puts emphasis on strong design and provides easy co-operation of different software packages.

User-based Vehicle Route Guidance in Urban Networks Based on Intelligent Multi Agents Systems and the ANT-Q Algorithm
Guiding vehicles to their destination under dynamic traffic conditions is an important topic in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Nowadays, many complex systems can be controlled by using multi agent systems. Adaptation with the current condition is an important feature of the agents. In this research, formulation of dynamic guidance for vehicles has been investigated based...
متن کاملDevelopment of a computational cognitive architecture for intelligent virtual character
A development of a computational cognitive architecture for the simulation of intelligent virtual characters is described in this paper. By specializing and adapting from an existing structure for a situated design agent, we propose three process models—reflexive, reactive and reflective—which derive behavioural models that underlie intelligent behaviours for these characters. Various combinati...
متن کاملGeneration of augmented video sequences combining behavioral animation and multi-object tracking
Sometimes, the ability to analyze something also gives us the ability to synthesize it, and vice versa. Baiget et al. work under the assumption that this is true for modeling three-dimensional animated virtual agents (often referred to as avatars). The paper describes an approach to generating augmented video sequences for the interaction between real agents (that is, human beings) and virtual ...
متن کاملIJCAI ’97 Workshop in Intelligent Animated Agents
Intelligent agents are beginning to appear that incorporate animated user interfaces. This paper derives 10 requirements on the interfaces to such agents in the light of the role the agent takes with respect to the user, the mental model the user is expected to develop of the agent, and the aspects of processes which are captured by animation. It is concluded that the main role of the animated ...
متن کاملREVIEW: Generation of augmented video sequences combining behavioral animation and multi–object tracking
In this paper we present a novel approach to on–line generate augmented video sequences involving interactions between virtual and real agents in real scenarios. On the one hand, real agent motion is estimated by means of a multi–object tracking algorithm, which determines real objects’ position over the scenario for each time step. On the other hand, virtual agents are provided with behavior m...
متن کاملNew Goal Selection Scheme for Behavioral Animation of Intelligent Virtual Agents
One of the most challenging tasks in computer graphics and cyberworlds is the realistic animation of the behavior of virtual agents emulating human beings and evolving within virtual 3D worlds. In a previous paper, the authors presented a new, sophisticated behavioral system that allows the agents to take intelligent decisions by themselves [8]. A central issue of this process is the adequate c...
