Background Papers:
Empathy, Motion and Emotion by David Freedberg
A Dual-Source Approach for 3D Pose Estimation from a Single Image by
by Hashim Yasin, Umar Iqbal, Björn Krüger, Andreas Weber and Juergen Gall
Explaining scene composition using kinematic chains of humans by Nuno Pinho da Silva ; Manuel Marques ; Gustavo Carneiro ; João P. Costeira
Abstract:
The history of art has hitherto largely escaped large-scale computational analysis, owing to 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 from the only computational study of pose in art, and suggest technical improvements from the field of 3D pose estimation. Finally, I conclude with some concrete research directions.
