A novel method for reconstructing 3D motion of human avatar from real-time orthogonal images by using artificial neural network techniques was proposed. The input vector to the network was constructed by using the extracted coordinates of the feature points, while the output one indicated the 3D coordinates of the representative points and joints of the real human. The fitting process of the neural network was based on some proper neural network learning techniques with a set of sample data pairs that were obtained by using a motion capture sys...
