“…Many research works have been conducted to develop game-related ontologies, e.g. developing game content ontology to describe games characteristics, properties and design process (Leino 2010;Teixeira et al 2008;Dubin and Jett 2015), using ontological framework as the guide to develop and employ game-based training (Anthony et al 2009), using an ontology and a set of rules to represent game logics (BinSubaih et al 2005), using ontologies as a solution to enable transfer of meaningful game information between different video games (Parkkila et al 2015), using defined learning game ontology as evaluation methodology of serious games for teachers/trainers to choose and retrieve learning games (Ghannem 2014).…”

Designing and creating complex and interactive animation is still a challenge in the field of virtual reality, which has to handle various aspects of functional requirements (e.g. graphics, physics, AI, multimodal inputs and outputs, and massive data assets management). In this paper, a semantic framework is proposed to model the construction of interactive animation and promote animation assets reuse in a systematic and standardized way. As its ontological implementation, two domainspecific ontologies for the hand-gesture-based interaction and animation data repository have been developed in the context of Chinese traditional shadow play art. Finally, prototype of interactive Chinese shadow play performance system using deep motion sensor device is presented as the usage example.

Abstract. In recent years, one of the most noticeable issues of current animation production is the challenge from the exponential growth of animation data known as an increasingly data-intensive process. There are obvious gaps between the animation production needs and research development, which call for novel design and new technology to tackle the emerging challenge of handling huge amounts of data. "iMCA" is designed to develop intelligent data management solution with the capability to handle massive and hyper type animation asset and analyze/summarize information for reuse of data to facilitate human creativity providing innovative interaction to allow the manipulation of massive animation data.

“…For example, a game ontology that is developed based on game theories to facilitate interactions in multi-agent system [30]; game content ontology [31]; using ontology to describe games characteristics, properties and design process [32][33]; using ontological framework as the guide to develop and employ game-based training [34]; using ontology and a set of rules to represent game logics [35]; ontologies as a solution to enable transfer of meaningful game information between different video games [36]; using defined learning game ontology as the evaluation methodology of serious games for teachers/trainers to choose and retrieve learning games [37]. In Semantic Class Library designed for semantic 3D game virtual environment [38], 3D model can be classified to provide additional semantic information, such as physical attributes, functional information besides 3D representations.…”

Abstract-Interactive animation generation is an attractive area of research for current animation developers in the field of virtual reality. As an essential tool for solving problems in many research areas, using standardised and structured terminologies, an ontological analysis could concisely describe the core logic of complex systems at a high level and facilitate system design.We propose a semantic framework using ontological methods to model the construction of interactive animation and promote integration process in a systematic and standardised way. A usage example is presented to provide guidance in generating animation of hand gesture based interactive Chinese shadow puppetry play for the heritage preservation of the traditional art. Domain-specific ontologies for the Chinese traditional shadow play and hand-gesture-based interaction are developed as the ontological implementation of the framework. Finally, an animation of hand-gesture-based interactive shadow play is generated.
