Compared to traditional training methods, immersive virtual reality serious games (IVR SGs) are gradually attracting attention. However, there are few studies currently on the application of this training method to fire emergency plan training for subway staff. Therefore, an IVR SG for subway intern staff fire emergency plan training was designed and developed. Firstly, the prototype development process for this IVR SG was described, then the effectiveness of the developed IVR SG training was validated through being compared with traditional written text training from the perspectives of knowledge acquisition and retention, self-efficacy improvement, and users' virtual reality (VR) experience. The results showed that the developed IVR SG was effective in terms of knowledge acquisition and self-efficacy improvement, and was more effective than the traditional written text training in short-term and long-term training effectiveness. In addition, the VR experience that the developed IVR SG provided to users was also acceptable. The study can provide some insights for the prototype development and validation of effectiveness on IVR SG for the emergency plan training.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50645,"journal":{"name":"Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147315571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address the aforementioned issues, we have developed an innovative system to improve secondary school physics education using computer vision-based interaction with virtual humans and sensors. The proposed system captures experimental data in real time so that student performance can be accurately monitored and assessed. Teachers can effortlessly configure experiments through simple coding, while the system leverages a multimodal macrolanguage model to offer contextual feedback and guidance.

Usability tests indicate that the system significantly improves student engagement and comprehension of complex physics concepts, highlighting its potential to transform traditional science education.

However, the dynamic configuration of PTZ cameras increases the difficulty of coordinating multiple cameras to monitor large-scale scenes. Since coverage control in PTZ camera networks has been proven to be an NP-hard problem, many studies have adopted virtual potential field (VPF) algorithms to efficiently obtain approximate solutions. The VPF methods treat camera viewpoints as charged particles. Through repulsive forces between these particles, PTZ camera networks expand scene coverage and reduce overlap between camera fields of view (FoVs). However, VPF-based methods cannot leverage the scene layout and target priority information, failing to cover pedestrians and other critical areas. In this work, we introduce a unified perception quality measure framework that quantifies surveillance importance for scenes, cameras, and pedestrians. Building on this framework, we design a coverage control scheme using a perceptive quality-based virtual potential field. This scheme models target regions and pedestrian priorities as virtual gravitational and attractive forces. It maximizes coverage of key regions, minimizes camera overlap, and supports high-resolution monitoring and tracking of pedestrians. Extensive experiments show that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving superior scene and pedestrian coverage performance.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50645,"journal":{"name":"Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146162733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, insufficient attention to knowledge visualization in VR learning has resulted in disorganized knowledge structures, comprehension difficulties, and mismatches between user experience and learning achievement. Therefore, we propose a Knowledge Cube (KC)-based visualization method to standardize knowledge encoding in VR learning. During courseware development, the instructor defines discrete knowledge as Events, organizes them into Event Groups, and populates data into a KC model to generate VR courseware. In subsequent VR learning, when learners search for task-relevant knowledge using the provided retrieval method, the KC model presents the corresponding events within interactive scenarios according to its predefined structure. Comparative experiments on different knowledge visualization methods revealed that, in VR learning, the KC method outperforms other VR approaches in both learning performance and efficiency. This method effectively guided learners to focus on the learning content and optimized the knowledge encoding in VR learning. This provides an operational framework for knowledge encoding in VR courseware design and emphasizes the importance of supporting effective learning behaviors over merely pursuing immersion, presenting a new perspective for refining the design approach of VR courseware.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50645,"journal":{"name":"Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146136324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional models such as U-Net and ResNet offer strengths in segmentation and feature extraction, respectively, but face critical limitations. U-Net struggles with retaining fine spatial details in cluttered backgrounds and lacks temporal modeling, while ResNet can lose motion continuity and suffers from vanishing gradient issues in deeper architectures. To overcome these challenges, we propose the holistic sign language interpretation network (HSLIN), a novel deep learning framework tailored for Indian sign language (ISL) recognition. HSLIN incorporates three key innovations: Uniformed frame isolation and augmentation (UFIA) for standardized preprocessing and noise removal, synaptic gesture movement analysis (SGMA) for capturing detailed motion using keypoint detection and optical flow, and a hybrid architecture combining U-Net-based segmentation with an enhanced ResNet-TC50V2 backbone. The novelty lies in fusing spatial precision with deep temporal modeling through bottleneck layers and temporal convolutional layers (TCL), enabling the model to effectively learn gesture patterns over time. Experimental results on the ISL-CSLTR dataset demonstrate that the proposed method achieves an accuracy of 99.9%, a precision of 100%, recall of 99.9%, and an F1-score of 100% across 14 word-level sign classes. Furthermore, an ablation study confirms the critical role of each architectural component in achieving optimal performance. These outcomes clearly establish the robustness, efficiency, and uniqueness of the proposed HSLIN framework, positioning it as a powerful solution for real-world ISL recognition and communication accessibility for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50645,"journal":{"name":"Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146091171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this limitation, we introduce <i>SinMDGan</i>, a hybrid deep learning framework for single-motion synthesis that leverages a Diffusion-GAN model. Our approach integrates the strengths of GANs, which capture global motion characteristics, with diffusion techniques, which refine local details, ensuring both authenticity and diversity in generated movements. Unlike conventional cascaded GANs, our framework employs a single generator-discriminator pair, utilizing different diffusion time steps to synthesize novel and diverse motions from a single short sequence.
