  abstract = "In this paper we propose a simple model for the coupling
              behavior of the human spine for an inverse kinematics
              framework. Our spine model exhibits anatomically
              correct motions of the vertebrae of virtual mannequins
              by coupling standard swing and revolute joint
              models. The adjustement of the joints is made with
              several simple (in)equality constraints, resulting in a
              reduction of the solution space dimensionality for the
              inverse kinematics solver. By reducing the solution
              space dimensionality to feasible spine shapes, we prevent
              the inverse kinematics algorithm from providing
              infeasible postures for the spine. In this paper, we
              exploit how to apply these simple constraints to the
              human spine by a strict decoupling of the swing and
              torsion motion of the vertebrae. We demonstrate the
              validity of our approach on various experiments."
