Human motion modeling and simulation by anatomical approach
To instantly generate desired infinite realistic human motion is still a great challenge in virtual human simulation. In this paper, the novel emotion effected motion classification and anatomical motion classification are presented, as well as motion capture and parameterization methods. The framework for a novel anatomical approach to model human motion in a HTR (Hierarchical Translations and Rotations) file format is also described. This novel anatomical approach in human motion modelling has the potential to generate desired infinite human motion from a compact motion database. An architecture for the real-time generation of new motions is also propose
Role of nucleon resonance excitation in meson photoproduction
The resonance effects are investigated in the meson photoproduction
near threshold through a quark model approach with an effective Lagrangian. The
diffractive contribution is consistently estimated by the {\it t}-channel
Pomeron exchange. Another non-diffractive process, {\it t}-channel
exchange is also included. The numerical result shows that the Pomeron exchange
plays dominant role in the meson photoproduction, while the cross
sections of the non-diffractive processes, i.e. {\it s}- and {\it u}-channel
excitations, and {\it t}-channel exchange, are quite small. In the
polarization observables, we find that large asymmetries are produced in the
backward direction by the interferences from the {\it s}- and {\it u}-channel
resonances, while in the forward direction, only very small asymmetries are
generated. Meanwhile, we find that the effects from the exchange are
generally negligible.Comment: Contribution to "2nd International Conference on Perspectives in

Short-coherence length superconductivity in the Attractive Hubbard Model in three dimensions
We study the normal state and the superconducting transition in the
Attractive Hubbard Model in three dimensions, using self-consistent
diagrammatics. Our results for the self-consistent -matrix approximation are
consistent with 3D-XY power-law critical scaling and finite-size scaling. This
is in contrast to the exponential 2D-XY scaling the method was able to capture
in our previous 2D calculation. We find the 3D transition temperature at
quarter-filling and to be . The 3D critical regime is much
narrower than in 2D and the ratio of the mean-field transition to is
about 5 times smaller than in 2D. We also find that, for the parameters we
consider, the pseudogap regime in 3D (as in 2D) coincides with the critical
scaling regime.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
