  • Patent number: 12499363
    Abstract: In various examples, a generative model is used to synthesize datasets for use in training a downstream machine learning model to perform an associated task. The synthesized datasets may be generated by sampling a scene graph from a scene grammar—such as a probabilistic grammar— and applying the scene graph to the generative model to compute updated scene graphs more representative of object attribute distributions of real-world datasets. The downstream machine learning model may be validated against a real-world validation dataset, and the performance of the model on the real-world validation dataset may be used as an additional factor in further training or fine-tuning the generative model for generating the synthesized datasets specific to the task of the downstream machine learning model.

  • Patent number: 12400395
    Abstract: Approaches presented herein provide for the generation of visual content, including different types of content representations from different sources, rendered to include consistent scene illumination for the various representations. A first render pass can produce a first image including only proxies of implicit representations (e.g., NeRF objects) under scene illumination. A second render pass can produce a second image that includes a representation of the explicit scene objects, as well as the proxies of the implicit representations, under the scene illumination, which produces secondary lighting effects. The first and second images are compared to determine irradiance ratio data for the various pixel locations. A third render pass can produce a third image that includes the implicit representations, which can have relighting performed according to the irradiance ratio data to include the secondary lighting effects.

  • Patent number: 12383844
    Abstract: Traditional head-mounted display experiences require a hand controller (e.g. thumbstick, touchpad, gamepad, keyboard, etc.) to manipulate audio controls. The invention is a hands-free, body-based navigation technology that puts the participant's body in direct control of movement through sonic space. Participants lean towards a sound source to make it louder and lean away to make it quieter. In some embodiments, the more a participant leans, the faster the volume changes. Because the interactions were designed to respond to natural bearing and balancing instincts, movement coordination is intuitive and easy to learn.
