In a three-dimensional virtual environment, aspects such as narrative and interaction largely depend on the placement and animation of the virtual camera. Therefore, virtual camera control plays a critical role in player experience and, thereby, in the overall quality of a computer game. Both game industry and game AI research focus on the development of increasingly sophisticated systems to automate the control of the virtual camera integrating artificial intelligence algorithms within physical simulations. However, in both industry and academia little research has been carried out on the relationship between virtual camera, game-play and player behaviour. We run a game user experiment to shed some light on this relationship and identify relevant differences between camera behaviours through different game sessions, playing behaviours and player gaze patterns. Results show that users can be efficiently profiled in dissimilar clusters according to camera control as part of their gameplay behaviour.
A semantic model difference identification (MDI) solution can be defined as an MDI solution that identifies and represents the differences between two compared models in terms of meaningful engineering information. Semantic representation of the differences between 3D CAD models is especially challenging due to the variety of modeling solutions used across industries, the non-uniqueness of modeling sequences and the use of low-level information, e.g. B-rep STEP files, in engineering communications. This work proposes an MDI method that represents the differences between 3D CAD models based on engineering semantics through features. Brake-and hydro-formed aerospace sheet metal parts are used as the application domain in which to propose and illustrate the proposed method. This method consists mainly of a pose registration stage and a difference identification stage. The pose registration method considers that all the features of a part serve specific functions, some of which are fundamental to the part's essential functionality, and that they are intertwined with the design intent of the part, which is particularly true for aerospace sheet metal parts. This provides the opportunity to semantically register feature-based 3D CAD models according to the unique purpose of the features in this specific domain of application. Difference identification is approached by primarily identifying and segregating the commonality between the compared 3D CAD models and then identifying the differences. The differences between 3D CAD models are classified as added, removed or differed features. Differed features are those features that are of the same type, but whose definition varies. As an outcome, the proposed method describes a way to fully pose-register 3D CAD models and identify their differences semantically based solely on their features, and, by extension, their design intent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
