Developing serious games for cultural heritage: a state-of-the-art review
Although the widespread use of gaming for leisure purposes has been well documented, the use of games to support cultural heritage purposes, such as historical teaching and learning, or for enhancing museum visits, has been less well considered. The state-of-the-art in serious game technology is identical to that of the state-of-the-art in entertainment games technology. As a result, the field of serious heritage games concerns itself with recent advances in computer games, real-time computer graphics, virtual and augmented reality and artificial intelligence. On the other hand, the main strengths of serious gaming applications may be generalised as being in the areas of communication, visual expression of information, collaboration mechanisms, interactivity and entertainment. In this report, we will focus on the state-of-the-art with respect to the theories, methods and technologies used in serious heritage games. We provide an overview of existing literature of relevance to the domain, discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the described methods and point out unsolved problems and challenges. In addition, several case studies illustrating the application of methods and technologies used in cultural heritage are presented

Survey on Vision-based Path Prediction
Path prediction is a fundamental task for estimating how pedestrians or
vehicles are going to move in a scene. Because path prediction as a task of
computer vision uses video as input, various information used for prediction,
such as the environment surrounding the target and the internal state of the
target, need to be estimated from the video in addition to predicting paths.
Many prediction approaches that include understanding the environment and the
internal state have been proposed. In this survey, we systematically summarize
methods of path prediction that take video as input and and extract features
from the video. Moreover, we introduce datasets used to evaluate path
prediction methods quantitatively.Comment: DAPI 201
