A system and method for automatic rigging of three dimensional characters for facial animation provide a rigged mesh for an original three dimensional mesh. A representative mesh is generated from the original mesh. Segments, key points, a bone set, and skinning weights are then determined for the representative mesh. The Skinning weights and bone set are placed in the original mesh to generate the rigged mesh.

Systems and methods for providing a context-based user interface include obtaining one or more contextual factors associated with an electronic device; predicting context information in accordance with the one or more contextual factors; and formatting a user interface on the electronic device in accordance with the predicted context information. In some implementations, formatting the user interface on the electronic device in accordance with the predicted context information includes: selecting, in accordance with the predicted context information, a first set of applications; and formatting for display to the user the first set of applications as part of a user interface of the electronic device; and formatting the user interface includes: selecting, in accordance with the predicted context information, a second set of applications; and forgoing display to the user the second set of applications as part of the user interface of the electronic device.
