ABSTRACT
In this paper, we propose a method to generate hand motion from full-body motion. We assume that hand pose can be estimated from full-body pose. We use a support vector machine (SVM) to choose one of four key hand poses based on the full-body pose. The training model is constructed from a number of full-body motions with manually specified hand-pose keyframes. The output pose is synthesized to include the generated continuous hand motion. Since our method does not require future poses, it is valid for both on-line and off-line animation. Our experimental results show that our model is applicable to a wide range of motions.
