Publication number: 20240144622Abstract: Techniques for aligning object representations for animation include analyzing a source object representation and a target object representation to identify a category of the source object and a category of the target object. Based on the category or categories of the objects, a feature extraction machine learning models is selected. The source object representation and the target object representation are provided as input to the selected feature extraction machine learning model to generate respective semantic descriptors and shape vectors for the source and target objects. Based on the semantic descriptors and the shape vectors for the source and target objects, an alignment machine learning model generates an aligned target object representation that is aligned with the source object representation and usable for animating the target object.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicants: Pixar, Disney Enterprises, Inc.Inventors: Hayko Riemenschneider, Clara Fernandez, Joan Massich, Christopher Richard Schroers, Daniel Teece, Rasmus Tamstorf, Charles Tappan, Mark Meyer, Antoine Milliez

Publication number: 20240133269Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing drilling advisory recommendation using a drilling advisory engine in a material processing system that supports drilling operations. A drilling advisory recommendation identifies prescriptions (e.g., an arrangement of components and settings) in the material processing system to support real time optimization of drilling operations. The drilling advisory engine can be implemented as a real time prescriptive tool for operators (e.g., field personnel) to offer guidance for drilling operations. In operation, input data comprising real time sensor data of drilling operations, historical drilling information, and contextual drilling information associated with a drilling site are accessed. The input data is analyzed using two or more drilling advisory models that support generating drilling advisory recommendations that identify prescriptions for drilling operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2022Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Pedro Alcalá, Jordi Serra Solanich, Alejandro Fernández Álvarez, Carolina Villalta, Diego Lasheras, Daniel López
