My PhD was a collaboration between the computer science laboratory LIRIS: SAARA Team and an Artificial Intelligence Company SpirOps based in Paris.
And it focuses on real-time procedural characters animation, more precisely AI-driven characters animation in real-time systems.
My main thesis objective is to generate all animations in real-time without any Motion Capture data.
