retargeting
- noun
- /ˌriːˈtɑːrɡɪtɪŋ/
- Specialized
- To enhance lifelike animations, animators often implement retargeting, which adjusts motion data for different character skeletons.
- image retargeting
- retargeting completion
Examples
-
In animation, retargeting allows artists to transfer movements from one character to another, ensuring the new character moves fluidly.
-
The retargeting process in gaming helps create realistic movements by adapting the captured data from a character's actions.
-
In Figure 8, we show how some of our constraints can prevent a building from bending or breaking during the retargeting process.

This one simple algorithm forms the basis for a variety of applications including image retargeting, completion, reshuffling, object detection, digital forgery detection, and video summarization.

Our system provides similar user annotations for lines and other region constraints, but treats all regions in a unified iterative process at interactive rates. Image retargeting.

Moreover, whereas in texture synthesis the texture example is usually a small image, in other applications such as patch-based completion, retargeting, and reshuffling, the input image is typically much larger, making the search problem even more critical.

For example, patch-based techniques can be used for image retargeting, in which an image is resized to a new aspect ratio; the computer automatically produces a good likeness of the original image but with new dimensions.

Our synthesis uses the framework of Simakov et al., which was previously demonstrated on synthesis tasks such as image collages, reshuffling, retargeting, automatic cropping, and the analogues of these in video.

Applications include texture synthesis, image and video completion, summarization and retargeting, image recomposition and editing, image stitching and collages, new view synthesis, morphing, noise removal, super-resolution, and more.

Morphology
retargeting = retarget (semi-transparent) = re + target + ing
Morphologically regular: 'retarget' (re- + target) plus -ing yields a gerund/nominal process.
Etymology
Retargeting comes from the parts re- meaning 'again' and target meaning 'aim', so imagine 'aiming again' a movement at someone new. In animation this means moving motion or actions so they fit a different character, which is why the word means adapting movement for another body.
