Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques are presented to generate digital content. In at least one embodiment, one or more neural networks are used to generate video information based at least in part upon voice information and a combination of image features and facial landmarks corresponding to one or more images of a person.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for public speaking guidance is provided. A processor retrieves speaker data regarding a speech made by a user. A processor separates the speaker data into one or more speaker modalities. A processor extracts one or more speaker features from the speaker data for the one or more speaker modalities. A processor generates a performance classification based on the one or more speaker features. A processor sends to the user guidance regarding the speech based on the performance classification.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes running an initial network on a plurality of images to detect actors pictured therein and body joints of the detected actors. The method further includes running fully-connected networks in parallel, one fully-connected network for each of the detected actors, to reconstruct complete three-dimensional poses of the actors. Sequential model fitting is performed on the plurality of images. The sequential model fitting is based on results of running the initial network and the fully-connected networks. The method further includes determining, based on the sequential model fitting, a locational position for a camera in which the camera has a view of a possible point of collision of two or more of the actors. The camera is instructed to be positioned in the locational position.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to generate a video using two or more images comprising objects to be included in the video. In at least one embodiment, objects are identified in two or more images using one or more neural networks, to generate a video to include the objects in the video.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques are presented to synthesize consistent images or video. In at least one embodiment, one or more neural networks are used to generate one or more second images based, at least in part, on one or more point cloud representations of one or more first images.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a photomask. The photomask includes a first integrated circuit (IC) feature formed on a substrate; and a second IC feature formed on the substrate and configured proximate to the first IC feature. The first and second IC features define a dense pattern having a first pattern density. The second IC feature is further extended from the dense pattern, forming an isolated pattern having a second pattern density less than the first pattern density. A transition region is defined from the dense pattern to the isolated pattern. The photomask further includes a sub-resolution rod (SRR) formed on the substrate, disposed in the transition region, and connected with the first IC feature.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel ammonium salt of an organic acid. When the salt is used as a base additive for a chemically amplified resist, the environmental stability of the resist can be enhanced, and the T-top phenomenon can be effectively prevented. In addition, the line width change caused by acid diffusion can be prevented, and the E0 value of the resist can be decreased.
