Abstract :
The study shows a human motion retrieval system, HUMOR. The system provides high-level multi-modal query interfaces so that users can choose a convenient modality, including text, stickman, images, and motion clip, to specify their queries. Besides, we propose a novel search method based on a well-structured index mechanism to retrieve human motion efficiently. The usability of the multi-modal user interface and the effectiveness of the proposed system has been demonstrated.
