While fully simula ting human motions with physics is an extreme challenge, we hypothesize th at we can treat this complexity as a black box in a data-driven manner if we focus on the ground contact, and have sufficient observations of physic s and human activities in the real world. To prove our hypothesis, we pres ent GroundLink, a unified dataset comprised of captured ground reaction fo rce (GRF) and center of pressure (CoP) synchronized to the standard kinema tic motion captures. GRF and CoP of GroundLink are not simulated but captu red at high temporal resolution using force platforms embedded in the grou nd for uncompromising measurement accuracy. This dataset contains 368 proc essed motion trials (1.59M recorded frames) with 19 different movements in cluding locomotion and weight-shifting actions such as tennis swings to si gnify the importance of capturing physics paired with kinematics. GroundLi nkNet, our benchmark neural network model trained with GroundLink, support s our hypothesis by predicting GRFs and CoPs accurately and plausibly on u nseen motions from various sources. The dataset, code, and benchmark model s will be made public for further research on various downstream tasks lev eraging the rich physics information.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Acces s, Enhanced Access, Trade Exhibitor, Experience Hall Exhibitor URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_947&sess=sess209 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
