Abstract: A 3D neural radiance field (NeRF) is used to generate an impulse response (IR) characterization, which can then be input to a convolutional reverberation engine to create an audio experience that reflects the in-game world on a 2.0 stereo speaker system. The NeRF recreates a background geometry and the impulse response of a virtual 3D space generated using NeRF is input to the convolutional reverberation engine to transform game sounds/music to appear as though they are occurring inside the 3D space of the game. The same may be done for the player's real-world space in which the virtual IR and real IR are blended together in real-time, and the real-life player tracked as he moves around the room to create audio as it would sound were the player moving through the virtual space while adjusting for the acoustics of the real space.

The computer system includes a memory for storing a program code and a processor for executing operation in accordance with the program code. The operation includes emitting irradiation light to a dToF sensor in accordance with a predetermined spatial pattern, acquiring a first distance calculated in reference to a time difference between emission of irradiation light and reception of reflected light from the irradiation light reflected by the object by the dToF sensor, and calculating a second distance by comparing a shape of a reflection image formed from the reflected light captured by a vision sensor with the predetermined spatial pattern.

Abstract: A client terminal and a server system having a plurality of processing units processing game applications are connected to each other via a network. In a game system as a cloud computing system, the server system makes the client terminal wait for a start of processing of an application when there is no processing unit assignable to the client terminal. When the processing unit becomes assignable, the client terminal displays a screen inquiring whether to start the processing of the application. When a user does not respond for a predetermined time, the server system takes action.

A second motion control circuit carries out a stabilization control of the lower body of the robot device.

Abstract: There are provided a negative example availability deciding apparatus, a negative example availability deciding method, and a program that enable reuse of training data. A positive example evaluation training section generates a positive example evaluation classifier trained with target data as a positive example. A negative example evaluation training section generates a negative example evaluation classifier trained with target data as a negative example. An availability deciding section determines the classification accuracy of the positive example evaluation classifier and the classification accuracy of the negative example evaluation classifier by using evaluation data. The availability deciding section decides, on the basis of the classification accuracy of the positive example evaluation classifier and the classification accuracy of the negative example evaluation classifier, whether or not to use target data as negative example training data for training another classifier.

Abstract: Machine learning is used to transform screen renders from the viewpoint of the player's character to be from the viewpoint of other non-player characters (NPC) in the room. One or more neural networks are trained using game images captured during a human play session, and then subsequently the neural networks are used to create realistic video from the NPC viewpoints. To avoid rendering multiple viewpoints simultaneously, a single viewpoint is rendered, and neural networks are used to transform it for the viewpoints of other NPCs in the area. A group of NPCs may be treated as a batch and a single viewpoint transformed to multiple viewpoints in a single inference pass. For cloud gaming the game video can be rendered/sent immediately for the player but the actions of the NPCs are delayed for a frame while the neural network generates the behavior.
