 rs:Empathy\, Motion and Emotion by David FreedbergA Dual-Source Approach f
 or 3D Pose Estimation from a Single Image by\nby Hashim Yasin\, Umar Iqbal
 \, Björn Krüger\, Andreas Weber and Juergen GallExplaining scene composi
 tion using kinematic chains of humans by Nuno Pinho da Silva \; Manuel Mar
 ques \; Gustavo Carneiro \; João P. CosteiraAbstract:\nThe history of art
  has hitherto largely escaped large-scale computational analysis\, owing t
 o an absence of obvious symbolic encodings. I propose a new computational 
 study of Western art through the study of human pose\, drawing on the art-
 theoretical writings of Warburg and Freedberg. I attempt to draw lessons f
 rom the only computational study of pose in art\, and suggest technical im
 provements from the field of 3D pose estimation. Finally\, I conclude with
  some concrete research directions.
