Facial Muscle Activations from Motion Capture
- Biomechanically accurate finite element models of facial musculature offer a superior accuracy in reproducing facial expressions, the ability to adapt the simulation model to a particular subject as well as a compact and biophysically meaningful parameterization of expressions in terms of the muscle

Simulating speech with a physics-based facial muscle model
- We present a physically based system for creating animations of novel words and phrases from text and audio input based on the analysis of motion captured speech examples. Leading image based techniques exhibit photo-real quality, yet lack versatility especially with regard to interactions with the

Arbitrary Cutting of Deformable Tetrahedralized Objects Abstract
- We propose a flexible geometric algorithm for placing arbitrary cracks and incisions on tetrahedralized deformable objects. Although techniques based on remeshing can also accommodate arbitrary fracture patterns, this flexibility comes at the risk of creating sliver elements leading to models that a

Robust Object Boundary Determination Using A Locally Adaptive Level Set Algorithm
- This paper introduces a level set methodology for the precise boundary localization of image objects within an indicated region, designed to be particularly robust against weak or spurious edges, triple points or inhomogeneity of object features in the proximity of the actual interface. The proposed

Physical simulation for animation and visual effects: parallelization and characterization for chip multiprocessors
- We explore the emerging application area of physics-based simulation for computer animation and visual special effects. In particular, we examine its parallelization potential and characterize its behavior on a chip multiprocessor (CMP). Applications in this domain model and simulate natural phenome
