Abstract: A computing system and method to generate an avatar wearing multiple layers of clothing. For each clothing model acquired for the avatar, the system generates a customized clothing model based on transforming the original clothing model for fitting on the avatar based on deforming and physical simulation and a reduced clothing model based on collapsing the customized clothing model on the body of the avatar such that applying the reduced clothing model is simplified as painting the texture of the reduced clothing model onto the avatar model. Wearing the inner layers of the clothing by avatar is computed by applying the texture of the corresponding reduced clothing model on the body of the avatar in a sequence from inside layers to outside layers. The customized clothing model of the outermost layer is combined with the avatar wearing the inner layers to generate the avatar wearing the multiple layers of clothing.

Abstract: A computing system and method to generate an avatar wearing a piece of clothing. Given a generic clothing model acquired for the avatar, the system generates a customized clothing model based on uniformly scaling the generic clothing model according to a size of the avatar, identifies one or more edges or boundaries of the clothing, deforms a clothing mesh of the scaled clothing model at the one or more edges by stretching and/or shrinking the edges, and performs a physical simulation of fitting the deformed clothing model on the avatar to generate a fitted clothing model for the avatar. User interfaces can be optionally provided to interactively adjust the scaling, deforming, and/or physical simulation of the clothing models.

Abstract: Source values are mapped to new user-defined categories. The new user-defined categories are stored in a new user-defined field. In an embodiment, a user-selection of an existing field is received. Based on a data type of the existing field, a specific mapping interface is displayed. The interface guides the user through specification of the new field and categories, and identification of the source values to map to the new categories.
