Neural Networks for Enhanced Virtual Experiences

Neural Networks for Enhanced Virtual Experiences

Introduction

A study into how neural networks can enhance system processing complex human-centric material, primarily if used in scenarios dealing with pattern or image recognition within virtual environments. Two examples of how this issue can be overcome are provided by improving occlusion robustness and detail processing strategies. Neural systems such as Dynamic Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) process time and alterations between each set of input neural layers to produce output values that attain the set goal. This form of artificial intelligence (AI) is ideal for handling occlusion robustness within virtual environments.

Overcoming Challenges: Occlusion Robustness

Occlusion robustness — a persistent challenge in dynamic scenes — can hinder accurate motion estimation and lead to erroneous readings. Artificial intelligence systems such as  Dynamic Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) address this issue by processing temporal changes between input neural layers, adapting dynamically to achieve the desired goals or data parameters. By incorporating an additional kinematic layer, precision can be enhanced, allowing for more accurate posture estimation even in occluded scenarios.

STRIKING THE BALANCE:
NEURAL NETWORKS AND LEVEL OF DETAIL

Complex virtual environments containing large amounts of data can sometimes create constraints on the level of detail (LOD); using neural networks can help balance fidelity and speed. Several LOD strategies are used in the 3D industry, discrete, continuous, and view-dependent; under the right circumstances, each one can be an effective solution to detail-processing improvement strategies. Strategies that can assist with bridging the gap between a weak data connection or the onset of hardware limitation issues. These minor but real issues can equate into significant loss in the outside world.

REAL-WORLD IMPLICATIONS​

Fidelity becomes critical in scenarios where multiple people interact from various devices with different capabilities, and the material must be accurately presented in real-time. If there isn’t an immersive experience, participation will drop, and these virtual environments fail to provide a beneficial channel for content that is best experienced through virtual reality compared to the computer experience. The application of neural networks within these virtual environments can improve drop-out rates and be a return on investment.
