Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for generating an augmented reality representation of a real-world environment. An augmented reality (AR) system receives a captured digital image of the real-world environment and generates an initial estimate of a candidate point specifying an estimated location of an annotation point of a virtual object model within the captured digital image of the real-world environment. An accuracy of the initial estimate is calculated based on a function of characteristics of the annotation point and a function of characteristics of the candidate point and, in response to the evaluation of accuracy indicating that the initial estimate is not accurate, an annotation point location refinement operation is performed to generate a refined candidate point for aligning the annotation point with the captured digital image of the real-world environment. An AR representation of the real-world environment is generated based on the refined candidate point.

Each time series sample is divided into at least 2 sub samples having equal time duration. At least one prediction model is pre-trained using the sub samples and a prediction result for each sub sample for each prediction model is obtained by executing the pre-trained prediction models with the time series samples as input.

Highest ranking Shapely value outliers are determined from analysis of the multiple clusters. Highest ranking outlier sub samples corresponding to the highest ranking Shapely value outliers are identified.
