• Abstract: Seemingly since the inception of virtual humans, there has been an effort to make their behaviors more natural and human-like. In additions to improving movement's visual quality, there has been considerable research focused on creating more intelligent virtual characters. This paper presents a framework inspired by natural language constructs that aims to author more reasonable virtual human behaviors using structured English input. We focus mainly on object types and properties, quantifiers, determiners, and spatial relations. The framework provides a natural, flexible authoring system for simulating human behaviors.

  This work proposes a hand gesture authoring tool for object specific grab gestures allowing virtual objects to be grabbed as in the real world. The presented solution uses template matching for gesture recognition and requires no technical knowledge to design and create custom tailored hand gestures. The study showed that gestures created with the proposed approach are perceived by users as a more natural input modality than the others.

  We present Dynamic and Autonomous Simulated Human (DASH), an embodied virtual human that, given natural language commands, performs grasp-and-stack tasks in a physically-simulated cluttered environment. By factoring the DASH system into a vision module, a language module, and manipulation modules of two skill categories, we can mix and match analytical and machine learning techniques for different modules so that DASH is able to not only perform randomly arranged tasks with a high success rate, but also do so under anthropomorphic constraints.
