Abstract

This paper presents some our recent research on computational models and algorithms for real-time analysis of full-body human movement. The focus here is on techniques to extract in real-time expressive cues relevant to KANSEI and emotional content in human expressive gesture, e.g., in dance and music performances. Expressive gesture can contribute to new perspectives for the design of interactive systems. The EyesWeb open software platform is a main concrete result from our research work. EyesWeb is used in interactive applications, including music and other artistic productions, museum interactive exhibits, therapy and rehabilitation, based on the paradigm of expressive gesture.
