• Examples of learned, unexaggerated sequences.
• Examples of tested, exaggerated and unexaggerated sequences.
• Example velocity profiles.
• Example to illustrate the different levels of tempral exaggeration used.

1. Learned, unexaggerated examples

e.g. Actor 1 Actor 2

This example of part of a possible test sequence shows the +1, time varying caricature of Actor 1,followed by the -1 time normalised caricature of Actor 2 and finally an unexaggerated Actor 2.

Results
