T he observation that almost all malignant cancers have telomerase activity has been explained by the assumption that telomerase is crucial for the progression of malignancy. Surprisingly, cells from mice without a functional telomerase RNA gene and no telomerase activity are indistinguishable from normal cells in different transformation and immortalization assays. However, detailed analysis o...

Digital Immortality applications require a type of believability that differs from that of interactive, conversational agents and other types of virtual humans. We are exploring the creation of digitally immortal, virtual humans whose primary visual interface is based only on original media assets of the persons being digitally immortalized. We describe a software framework that supports script...
