Abstract
Description
STATE OF THE ART Various applications attempt to foster collaboration between different parties by presenting scenes, objects, files, and the like within a shared interaction environment. This environment can receive an initial input file from a primary data source, which may include converted or modified versions of a range of different file types, and present a representation of that file to a number of users within the environment. The scenes or objects represented within the interaction environment can be linked to other file sources and associated files, which may have different file types or capabilities compared to the primary file source.Due to the different capabilities between the files, attempts to merge or otherwise mirror changes between the files can be done manually, which is prone to errors and delays.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The invention is defined by the claims. To illustrate the invention, aspects and embodiments that may or may not be within the scope of the claims are described herein. This paper discloses approaches that provide systems and procedures including bidirectional connectors for transferring information between different address locations associated with different data sources. One or more features can have associated values corresponding to one or more parameters of the feature. These features can be stored in several different data sources, which may have different properties or functionality. A bidirectional connector can be established to link the respective address locations for common features, enabling changes to one data source to be detected, evaluated, and implemented in the other connected data sources. The following description details various embodiments. For explanatory purposes, specific configurations and details are presented to provide a thorough understanding of these embodiments. However, a person skilled in the art will also recognize that the embodiments can be implemented practically without these specific details. Furthermore, well-known features may be omitted or simplified to avoid complicating the understanding of the described embodiments. The systems and procedures described herein may be used by, among others, non-autonomous vehicles or machines, semi-autonomous vehicles or machines (e.g., in a cabin infotainment or digital or virtual driver assistance application), autonomous vehicles or machines, guided and unguided robots or robotic platforms, warehouse vehicles, all-terrain vehicles, vehicles coupled to one or more trailers, flying vehicles, boats, shuttle vehicles, emergency vehicles, motorcycles, electric or motorized bicycles, aircraft, construction vehicles, trains, underwater vehicles, remotely controlled vehicles such as drones, and / or other types of vehicles.Furthermore, the systems and methods described herein can be used for a number of purposes, for example, but not limited to, machine control, machine locomotion, machine propulsion, synthetic data generation, model training or updating, perception, augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, robotics, security and monitoring, simulation and digital twinning, autonomous or semi-autonomous machine applications, deep learning, environmental simulation, object or actuator simulation and / or digital twinning, data center processing, conversational artificial intelligence (AI), generative AI with large language models (LLMs) and / or vision language models (VLMs), light transport simulation (e.g., ray tracing, path tracing, etc.), collaborative content creation for 3D assets, cloud computing, and / or other suitable applications. Disclosed embodiments may be included in a range of different systems, such as automotive systems (e.g., a control system for an autonomous or semi-autonomous machine, a perception system for an autonomous or semi-autonomous machine), systems implemented using a robot, antenna systems, media systems, boat systems, intelligent area monitoring systems, systems for performing deep learning operations, systems for performing simulation operations, systems for performing digital twinning operations, systems implemented using an edge device, systems involving one or more virtual machines (VMs), systems for performing synthetic data generation operations, systems implemented at least partially in a data center, and systems for performing conversational AI operations.Systems for performing generative AI operations using LLMs and / or VLMs, systems for performing light transport simulation, systems for performing collaborative content creation for 3D assets, systems that are implemented at least partially using cloud computing resources, and / or other types of systems. Approaches in accordance with various embodiments relate to establishing a bidirectional connector between a distributed content creation environment (such as an interactive three-dimensional rendering environment (3D rendering environment)) and one or more data sources. Various embodiments refer to a bidirectional connection that has a specific, targeted scope of responsibility for one or more features or components within the distributed content creation environment. As a result, the bidirectional connector can be tailored or specifically configured to monitor a certain component or feature without attempting to parse or synchronize an entire scene or data source. The bidirectional connector can be used to provide listeners at different address locations that are representative of specifically selected components or features.Addresses can be defined at either end of the connector (e.g., one for the scene description environment and a second for the data source), and changes to one or the other can then trigger a notification or a workflow to synchronize the associated change with the other address. This allows a specific feature to be modified or tracked independently of other components within the scene or other data within the data source. Approaches in accordance with various implementations can be used to enable collaboration between two or more different data sources, which may be represented within an interaction environment. For example, the interaction environment may provide a geometric / graphical representation of one or more objects or a scene, such as a 3D representation of a part and various sub-parts that comprise the part. A non-geometric data source may include specific information relating to an appearance of one or more sub-parts, such as the part's color, size, etc. However, because the data sources may be in different configurations or formats, changes in one may not be reflected in another without manual tracking and input.As a non-limiting example, a content creation program (CCP) can include various computer-aided drafting (CAD) programs that generate 3D representations of different objects. The objects can include sub-parts, which are also individually tracked and represented within the CAD file, or they can be linked to another CAD file in an array, among other options. The 3D representation can also be tracked or monitored in non-geometric data sources, such as database files, spreadsheets, and the like. For example, a part corresponding to a coffee cup array might include a body, a handle, and a lid. An associated CAD file might contain representative information about these parts, such as dimensions, color, finish material, and / or the like.The information from the CAD file can be processed in the interaction environment to provide a representation within that environment. Simultaneously, a parts list for the coffee cup can be generated, listing each component along with certain attributes, such as different colors or materials. If the CAD file is updated to change the color of the body, the associated spreadsheet must also be manually updated to reflect this change. Embodiments of the present disclosure address and overcome this problem by providing listeners for a bidirectional connector that can determine that a change has been made to one or more elements of the CAD file or the spreadsheet at a given address, and then perform the corresponding update at the other address.Returning to the example of changing the body's color in the interaction environment, the bidirectional connector can detect this change and then pass it to an associated spreadsheet linked to the color, updating the value in a given cell. In this way, changes within one or more data sources for a connected geometric data source can be updated and reflected within the interaction environment. Systems and methods can be used to establish a connected, collaborative environment using a set of data sources. Various embodiments involve one or more bidirectional connectors that "listen" at a specified address with respect to one or more features associated with the set of data sources. The bidirectional connectors can be used to: identify a change to a specified or connected component in a first data source, determine the value of the change, identify the corresponding address for the component in a connected second data source, and then modify the corresponding address in the connected second data source in accordance with the change in the first data source.In this way, one or more specific components or objects can be selected and updated for connection, instead of either manually updating related components or attempting to track and update an entire scene. Various other such functions may also be used within the scope of the different embodiments, as an average person skilled in the art will recognize in view of the teachings and recommendations contained herein.

The disclosure extends to processes and / or devices and / or systems as described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. Aspects and embodiments of the disclosure will now be described exclusively by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 illustrates an exemplary environment 100 that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, the environment 100 includes an interaction environment 102, which can be a distributed platform capable of receiving data from one or more data sources 104A-104N, extracting information from the one or more data sources 104A-104N, and then generating a representation 106 associated with the one or more data sources 104A-104N for display. The interaction environment 102 can be a distributed platform that allows multiple users to view and interact with the representation 106, which in this example includes a 3D representation of a car. The car can be an arrangement of a number of different components and / or subcomponents, such as tires 108, taillights 110, seats 112, and / or the like. The one or more data sources 104A-104N can correspond to a different "type" or format of data source. As a non-restrictive example, data source 104A can correspond to a CCP used for modeling, such as a CAD program. The information provided by data source 104A can include feature information for various parts of the representation 106, such as geometric information that allows the interaction environment 102 to render the representation 106 of the car. Additional data sources 104B, 104C can provide other types of information, such as background information or scene information for other objects (not shown) that may be included in the environment.For example, the representation 106 can be positioned within an environment, such as a road, which includes other objects to provide more detail for the scene, such as road markings, signs, trees, other cars, pedestrians, buildings, and / or the like. Additionally, in at least one embodiment, one of the data sources 104A-104N can be associated with geometric information but can include data corresponding to one or more features associated with the representation 106. For example, a spreadsheet or database file can store information relating to a physical appearance of the representation 106, an orientation of the representation 106, and / or the like. Furthermore, the spreadsheet or database can be used to track and adjust a number of objects within the scene.For example, a spreadsheet or database file might have a value that specifies a number of trees to position within a field, such as five, so that if the data source is provided to the interaction environment as 102, five trees will be rendered. The systems and methods of this disclosure can include one or more bidirectional connectors between the different data sources 104A-104N and the interaction environment 102, such that connected values between data sources 104A-104N are automatically updated in response to an update to a specific data source and / or the interaction environment 102. For example, if data source 104N includes information associated with the taillight 110, such as a shape, and the value in data source 104N is changed from "rectangle" to "circle", the associated component part in data source 104A is updated to change the geometry of the taillight 110, and the change would further be represented within the interaction environment 102.Accordingly, changes and modifications can be made between connected areas of different data sources 104A-104N and automatically distributed to data sources 104A-104N via the interaction environment 102. In certain embodiments, one or more data sources 104A-104N can be associated with one or more CCPs and / or one or more repository locations for files generated by the one or more CCPs. Different CCPs may have different suites or tools and features for content generation, and as a result, linking information between other types of data sources may not be possible. For example, one CCP may lack the capabilities of another, such as a 2D CAD program that is unable to render 3D representations of objects. Systems and methods of the present disclosure can be used to identify features represented between different data sources 104A-104N and then link these specific features and their associated values without attempting to link entire files or all of the features, which could lead to errors.Instead, specific bidirectional connections can be established for a subset of possible features, where the subset can be selected by a user or chosen based on compatibility, among various other options. In at least one embodiment, the interaction environment can convert different input information or otherwise align it to a common format, such as Universal Scene Description (USD). Various embodiments identify one or more elements or features that can be linked between different data sources 104A-104N and provide a bidirectional connector to update values indicating these linked features. In certain embodiments, the one or more elements can be predefined. For example, a specific CCP can be evaluated, and a chart or table can include one or more elements or features and their associated compatibility with various other potential data sources, such as other CCPs, database programs, spreadsheets, and the like.Accordingly, systems and procedures can be used to generate a collaborative multi-data-source system, whereby individual updates made to a data source or the interaction environment without directly modifying the data sources can be used to propagate changes via the connected values associated with one or more bidirectional connectors. Fig. 2A illustrates an exemplary environment 200 that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, the interaction environment 102 includes the representation 106 of the car from Fig. 1, the car including various features such as the tires 108, the taillights 110, and the seats 112. Additionally, the data sources 104A and 104B are illustrated. As mentioned herein, there may be more data sources 104, as shown in Fig. 1, but for the sake of simplicity and clarity, only two data sources are discussed in this example. The illustrated data sources 104A and 104B each include feature lists 202, which represent a certain element within the representation 106. For example, the feature lists 202 may include specific part numbers, specific components, specific textures or colors, and / or the like. Additionally, it should be clear that feature lists 202 may also include metadata and other descriptive information, which may constitute a large portion of the information associated with the representation 106. That is, while the output of the various data sources 104A–104N may provide a graphical representation in 3D, most of the information is not geometric but rather in the form of metadata. As shown, there is an identifier 204 and a value 206 for each feature. The value 206 may correspond to a single number or multiple numbers. Additionally, the value 206 may be a binary value (e.g., yes / no, on / off, etc.).) for a given feature, such as a toggled checkbox. In at least one embodiment, the value 206 can be a series of numbers, such as dimensional values corresponding to positions within the environment and / or relative to other features. Additionally, the value can refer to the size or appearance of an object, with a certain value corresponding to a color or texture, or with different values making objects smaller or larger. Furthermore, the value can also specify a number of features that repeat within a scene, such as a pattern of bolt holes, which can include a value of "4" to represent four bolt holes. The illustrated feature lists 202 include different identifiers 204 in this example because the associated data sources 104A and 104B can have different capabilities for the respective feature lists 202A and 202B. For example, if data source 104A is a 3D CAD program and data source 104B is a spreadsheet, the 3D CAD program can include various features that do not correspond to or are not correlated with the spreadsheet, such as scene lighting information, among others. Data source 204A includes feature list 202A, which contains features with respective identifiers 204. Similarly, data source 204B includes feature list 202B, which contains features with respective identifiers 204. Each of these identifiers 204 also includes a value 206.In this example, "Feature A", "Feature K", and "Feature N" are included in both Feature List 202A and Feature List 202B. However, "Feature B" is not shown in Feature List 202B, and "Feature C" is not shown in Feature List 202A. Therefore, there can be no bidirectional connectors between these features, as discussed herein. Systems and methods can be used to connect specific value addresses for specific features within given feature lists. For example, a user may not want a full restore and / or a full update for a given file and instead want to restrict changes to specific elements of interest in order to increase speed and reduce complexity in both use and implementation. Furthermore, a user may want to block or otherwise prevent changes to specific features and remove connectors to restrict access to or modification of values associated with different features. Accordingly, various embodiments of the present disclosure can include specific, targeted bidirectional connectors 208 to connect specific features between different data sources 104.Various embodiments may include connecting via the interaction environment 102, but it should be clear that other embodiments can provide connections between data sources 104A-104N without using the interaction environment 102 as an intermediary. In this example, a first bidirectional connector 208A is used to connect feature A between the first data source 104A and the second data source 104B. Likewise, a second bidirectional connector 208B is used to connect feature N between the first data source 104A and the second data source 104B. However, as discussed herein, not every compatible feature may include a bidirectional connector, and for example, feature K is listed in both feature lists 202A and 202B, but there is no bidirectional connector 208A.This can be a deliberate decision by a user and / or one or more rules implemented with the Interaction Environment 102. For example, feature K may correspond to an element that is connected to a number of other elements, and a change to feature K may trigger a domino effect across various components. As a result, it may be desirable to delay updating connected data sources for this feature until it can be verified that the change has no adverse effects on other components. As another example, feature K may correspond to a component or element that is computationally intensive to modify and can therefore be "locked" for modification to provide a faster, lower-latency experience in the Interaction Environment 102.Additionally, in various embodiments, the quantity of data between the different feature lists 202A, 202B can be high, and therefore certain data can be prioritized to reduce the number of bidirectional connectors used, and as a result, information that can be connected is not necessarily connected. Fig. 2B illustrates an exemplary environment 220 that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, the functionality of the bidirectional connector 208A between a first state 222 and a second state 224 is illustrated. For example, in the first state 222, feature A corresponds to the taillight 110 and includes respective values 206 associated with the first feature list 202A and the second feature list 202B, which, as discussed herein, are each associated with different data sources 104A and 104B. In the first feature list 202A, feature A has a value of XX and is connected to feature A in the second feature list 202B via the bidirectional connector 208A. In this example, a change to the associated value 206 for feature A in the second feature list 202B is made by changing from XX to DD.In at least one embodiment, a listener is connected to the bidirectional connector 208A and can listen at the associated addresses with respect to the value 206 in the first and second data sources 104A and 104B and determine whether a change has occurred. A change can be compared with one or more thresholds or other parameters to determine whether the change is significant enough to update associated data sources 104. In this example, a change can be detected and it can be determined that it exceeds a threshold. Additionally, it can be determined that the change is "important" or relevant to the given scene. For example, with the representation 106 being a car, a change to the taillights, when only the rear view is considered, might only become relevant when a different camera view of the car is presented.In this example, the change occurs to an element within the camera's field of view associated with representation 106, and it may be considered important enough to apply the update to the other connected data sources 104. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, a delay or duration may be incorporated to determine whether the change to value 206 is intended and / or will be sustained. For example, a user might mistakenly update a value and then quickly revert the change. To avoid unnecessary updates and traffic, a delay may be imposed after a change before applying the change to other connected data sources 104. Additionally, changes may be evaluated to determine their validity.For example, if a value for a given feature corresponded to a numeric value and a user changed the value to a letter, this change may be considered invalid, as implementing the change might cause an error. In the illustrated embodiment, the change applied to feature A may be considered significant, exceed a threshold, be intentional, and / or exceed a threshold duration after application. Accordingly, various embodiments of the present disclosure can use the bidirectional connector 208A to automatically apply the change to the second data source 104A, which is associated with the first feature list 202A, and then render an updated representation 106 that incorporates the change. In this example, changing the value of feature A from XX to DD changes the taillights 110 from a rectangular shape to an elliptical shape. Accordingly, systems and methods can allow collaborators to select which data source is used to make modifications and then automatically apply these changes to other data sources using the bidirectional connector 208. Figure 3A illustrates an exemplary environment 300 that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. The environment 300 can be integrated into and / or communicate with one or more distributed computing environments, such as an interaction environment, allowing one or more users to collaborate and / or view objects and / or scenes. A bidirectional connector engine 302 can be used as one or more tools or features within the interaction environment, which can be provided as a service by a distributor of the interaction environment and / or be accessible by one or more additional providers. Furthermore, various features can be described as independent tools or modules, but the tools and the features executed by the tools can be integrated into a common tool or workflow.Additionally, each of the tools or modules can be supported by underlying hardware, such as graphics processing units (GPUs) and / or memory, that executes stored software instructions in response to one or more commands. The commands can be provided as input, such as from a user performing operations on one or more devices, and / or as part of an automated workflow, where the command can be received by one or more devices without direct user interaction. For example, a user might choose to load a software program that can initiate a workflow to grant permissions to the interaction environment, select an object to view, and execute one or more features of the 302 bidirectional connector engine. In this example, an input 304 is provided to data source(s) 104A-104N, which may be connected to or otherwise associated with another data source(s) 104A-104N to render or present one or more objects within the interaction environment 102. The data sources 104A-104N receiving the input 304 may include one or more data files or models, such as a model representative of an object or scene, which may be in 2D or 3D. The object may be an image or a volumetric model, and it may also be extracted from one or more video feeds, such as by selecting one or more frames from the video. In at least one embodiment, the input 304 corresponds to a specific file type, which may be unique to a CCP used to generate the input 304 or unique to an associated data source.For example, if input 304 was a volumetric model from NX, the file could be in the form of a ".prt" file, among various other options such as ".sim", ".afm", ".udf", ".igs", ".asm", ".stp", ".model", and / or the like. Additionally, information associated with the different file types can include metadata, not just geometric information associated with the input. Furthermore, data sources 104A-104N can be non-geometric data sources, such as spreadsheets, database files, and the like. In this example, a manager 306 can determine that the input 304 has been provided to the different data sources 104A-104N. For example, the manager 306 can be associated with one or more bidirectional connectors 208 (e.g., connectors) that can link certain features between the respective data sources 104A-104N, as discussed herein. In at least one embodiment, the one or more bidirectional connectors 208 can be generated by a user and / or can be generated automatically based on various properties of the data sources 104A-104N and / or the output of the data sources 104A-104N. For example, different bidirectional connectors 208 can be created if the output is a 3D representation of an object as opposed to a 2D representation. Additionally, different bidirectional connectors 208 can be formed if there are multiple objects within a scene.Systems and procedures can allow any geometry and associated non-geometric features, such as metadata, to be introduced into the interaction environment from one or more compatible sources, and then allow associated values for different components in a data source to be edited, and allow this change to be propagated to another connected data source using one or more bidirectional connectors 208. The various bidirectional connectors 208 can connect a pair of data sources 104A-104N or can connect multiple data sources 104A-104N. In at least one embodiment, the connected data sources 104A-104N can connect individual features based on their respective address locations. That is, entire arrays or feature lists may not be connected, and specific elements can be selected to reduce latency when attempting to render or otherwise process an entire file as opposed to a subset. Additionally, the various bidirectional connectors 208 may be limited based on the capabilities of the associated data sources 104A-104N, and therefore computational resources may be wasted when attempting to update components that are not connected between data sources 104A-104N due to these limitations.As a non-restrictive example, a spreadsheet cannot include values associated with scene lighting. As another example, a 2D rendering program cannot include volumetric information for an object. Systems and procedures provide the bidirectional connectors 208 to allow rapid modifications of specifically selected features in data sources 104A-104N and to automatically update changes made in one data source in other connected data sources. A listener 308 can be used to determine whether a value has been changed and / or modified. For example, the listener 308 can be associated with different address locations at each "end" of a bidirectional connector 208. Ends can refer to locations within the data sources and / or the interaction environment. It should be understood that the bidirectional connectors described herein may not be limited to connecting pairs of data sources 104A-104N and may include connections between three or more different data sources. As a result, the "ends" can refer to address locations within a given data source that includes a value connected to one or more additional data sources.In various embodiments, the bidirectional connectors 208 can use the interaction environment 102 as an intermediary, such that one end can be formed at the representation within the interaction environment for a connection to a first data source, and then this end, or another end, can be formed at the representation within the interaction environment with a second data source. During operation, the listener 308 can be used to determine whether a connected value has been modified. The listener 308 can be executed at intervals (e.g., every X seconds) or continuously. In at least one embodiment, the listener 308 can use one or more rules to delay notification of a change, such as by waiting to determine whether a change was intentional or an error, or by waiting for a certain period of time before providing an indication that a change has occurred.Listener 308 can also execute rules to determine that modifications are valid and will not cause rendering or operational errors if used to modify other connected locations. Additionally, Listener 308 can identify changes between an initial data file and a modified data file. For example, a user might interact with an object within the interaction environment and request an update or re-render by uploading a different version of one or more of the data files 104A-104N associated with the rendering. Accordingly, Listener 308 can be used to identify changes in some or all connections when it is determined that an updated file has been provided to the interaction environment. In another embodiment, the receiver 308 can receive a command or notification when a user interacts with a bidirectional connector, for example, by modifying one or more values associated with the bidirectional connector. In certain embodiments, the receiver 308 can also delay different inputs or otherwise impose an order on them. For example, if two different users interact with the same value of an attribute, the receiver 308 can provide an indication that the value has been modified by multiple users, provide an instruction to perform an update according to the order in which the commands were received, disregard the first command in favor of the second command, disregard the second command in favor of the first command, or various combinations thereof.For example, different inputs received within a threshold time period can be evaluated, and then one or more rules can be applied, such as ignoring the first command because the probability that the second command will be rendered before the result of the first command is seen might be greater than a threshold. Additionally, in various implementations, a messenger service can be provided to notify users of rapid changes to different attributes, which can be used to moderate or otherwise encourage communication between users working in the same interaction environment. In at least one embodiment, a subset of features or attributes can be selected from the various bidirectional connectors. The selected features can be based on user preferences, data source properties, and / or combinations thereof. In at least one embodiment, an identifier service 310 can be used to evaluate input data sources 104A-104N to determine which features might be connected using one or more bidirectional connectors 208. For example, the identifier service 310 can scan associated entries regarding geometric and / or non-geometric features in each of the data sources 104A-104N and determine which features are the same in two or more of the input data sources 104A-104N.In certain embodiments, a feature data store 312 can be used during evaluation to restrict or otherwise target specific features or information. For example, a user can use one subset of information for a particular set of inputs and another subset for a different set of inputs, thereby targeting and matching how many bidirectional connectors to create for different types of input options. Systems and procedures can also use one or more trained machine learning systems associated with the identifier service 310 to evaluate and identify different features for creating bidirectional connectors. For example, the machine learning systems can parse data and metadata for each of the data sources 104A-104N and determine a match across different data sources 104A-104N. Additionally, the machine learning systems can incorporate information from the feature data store 312 to target or search for different types of features.Different sets of features can be configured for different types of input, as mentioned herein. As a result, the machine learning systems can scan the input files, determine that the output will be a 3D scene with a variety of different objects, and then, based on this determination, identify a certain number of features to generate the bidirectional connectors. Different parameters can also be used to limit or control the number of bidirectional connectors used, such as having a threshold maximum to reduce latency, or similar considerations. Systems and procedures can incorporate an evaluation service 314, which uses one or more rules stored in a rule data store 316, together with or in addition to the identifier service 310, to select different features for a connection using one or more bidirectional connectors 208. The rules can be based on file type, user preferences, resource capabilities, and / or the like. For example, if it is determined that the user is working with hardware that has limited processing capabilities, the rules can specify a maximum number of bidirectional connectors or restrict the bidirectional connectors to features that would not use significant processing capabilities. On the other hand, a user with excessive processing capabilities can be provided with additional bidirectional connectors or additional options. As a non-restrictive example of the operation of the 302 bidirectional connector engine, a user can use an initial CCP to generate an object. This object can be imported into an interaction environment and integrated into a scene generated by a different CCP. Furthermore, it can be associated with two different spreadsheets that track information for both the object and the scene. For example, the object might be a part positioned within a warehouse, and its associated spreadsheet might control the part's size, orientation, quantity, and so on. Additionally, the scene might include geometric features of the warehouse with associated position tracking, size, orientation, quantities, and so forth.An input can be provided to the spreadsheet associated with the object to rotate it and position it within a given location in the scene. The listener can specify that a change be made to one or more connected values associated with the object's position and orientation, and this information can be used to adjust the object's location within the scene in the interaction environment. These changes can then cause additional changes to the scene. For example, if the object is moved to a new location, the appearance of certain objects in the scene may change; for instance, a tile on the floor may no longer be displayed, or a shadow may be cast over a different region.Another listener can then detect these changes in the rendering within the interaction environment and trigger updates to the spreadsheet associated with the scene to track revised values for different connected features. In this way, using the various bidirectional connectors, modifications to one data source can be automatically tracked and represented in another. Various embodiments can generate bidirectional connectors and / or execute the listener, among other features, according to different workflows associated with certain data source types. Different workflows can be created based on the types of received input files, the types of data sources, and / or the like. For example, a workflow can be created to identify and generate bidirectional connectors upon detection of a file type. In at least one embodiment, the workflow can be based, at least partially, on compatibilities between features within dissimilar data sources. For example, workflows can be used to identify different types of features that are incompatible between two different data sources and then stop or block attempts to generate bidirectional connectors between these incompatible features. Fig. 3B illustrates an exemplary environment 350 that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, a bidirectional connector manager 352 is illustrated, which can be a subset of the bidirectional connector engine 302, for example, as part of the manager 306. In at least one embodiment, the bidirectional connector manager 352 can be used to identify and establish different address locations for desired connections and to execute changes based on identified modifications to different values at connected addresses. For example, an address locator 354 can evaluate different features identified as desired for a connection and determine their address or location, such as within a feature list, associated with metadata and / or the like.The address locator 354 can also store different addresses and their associated feature identifiers within a connection data store 356, which can be used to track various bidirectional connectors 208 used with a given application. The address locator 354 can work with the listener 308 to identify changes at a connected address location. When a change is detected, an execution service 358 can be used to determine whether the change satisfies one or more rules stored within a rule data store 360. For example, a change might need to exceed a threshold quantity, such as being a percentage greater than a given value, or the like.As another example, a rule can be created to determine if a certain time elapsed after a change exceeds a threshold, thus reducing instances where a user mistakenly makes a change and then quickly reverts once the error is identified. The execution service 358 can interact with the bidirectional connector 208 to identify the associated address location linked to the value and then perform the update. As a result, bidirectional connectors can be established, monitored, and used to quickly and automatically update information across different data sources. Fig. 4A illustrates an exemplary flowchart for an exemplary process 400 for updating feature values using a bidirectional connector, which can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be understood that, within the scope of the various embodiments, unless specifically stated otherwise, there may be additional, fewer, or alternative operations for this and other processes presented herein, which are performed in a similar or alternative sequence or at least partially in parallel. In this example, a notification is received that a modification to a first feature value has been performed at a first selected address location 402. The selected address location may correspond to an address within a data storage that is associated with an appearance or property of a feature.In at least one embodiment, the first feature value is a geometric value. In another embodiment, the first feature value is a non-geometric value. In at least one embodiment, the information is received after a bidirectional connection has been established between two heterogeneous content creation applications. As used herein, the bidirectional connection can be established for one or more feature values corresponding to an object in a virtual scene of synthetically generated graphical data maintained in a distributed content creation platform. Accordingly, in at least one embodiment, the information can be received via the bidirectional connection, and the first feature value can be one of the one or more feature values. It can be determined that a modification to the first feature value exceeds a threshold 404. For example, changes that are smaller than a certain percentage or below a minimum specified value can be considered non-errors or insignificant with respect to rendering or modifying a different source. Additionally, the threshold can also correspond to a duration associated with the change, such as a time period after the change has been made. A second selected address location associated with the first feature value can be identified 406. The second selected address location can be at a different end of the bidirectional connector and can be associated with a different data source than the first selected address location. In at least one embodiment, a second feature value at the second address location can be updated based on the modification 408.Accordingly, changes made at the first address can be automatically made at the second address. Fig. 4B illustrates an exemplary flowchart for an exemplary process 420 for updating feature values using a bidirectional connector that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, a first address corresponding to a selected feature in a first data source is identified 422. The first address may be associated with a value that modifies one or more properties of the selected feature. As discussed herein, in at least one embodiment, the selected feature may correspond to an object in a virtual scene of synthetically generated graphical data maintained in a distributed content creation platform. A second address corresponding to the selected feature in a second data source may be identified 424.In at least one embodiment, a bidirectional connection can be generated between the first address and the second address 426. The bidirectional connection can include a listener that monitors the respective addresses for changes. In at least one embodiment, the first address can correspond to a first content creation application and the second address can correspond to a second content creation application. The first and second content creation applications can be heterogeneous applications. It can be determined that a modification to a first value for at least one of the first address or the second address has been made 428. Based on the modification, a second value for the other of the first address or the second address can be modified 430. For example, the second value can be modified to be the same as the first value.Accordingly, changes to one address can be transferred to another address. Fig. 5 illustrates an exemplary flowchart of an exemplary process 500 for updating feature values using a bidirectional connector that can be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In this example, a bidirectional connector 502 is monitored. The bidirectional connector can be associated with a first address location at a first data source and a second address location at a second data source. As described herein, the first and second data sources can be different data sources, such as a CAD file and a spreadsheet, among various other options. It can be determined that a modification has been made to a value at either the first or the second address location 504.For example, a listener can evaluate the address location(s) to determine whether a change has occurred in a value associated with one or more features in the content. A determination can be made as to whether the modification exceeds a threshold (506). The threshold can be associated with the amount of the change in the value (e.g., a fixed amount, a percentage, a minimum / maximum value, etc.), a time period after the change was made, and the like. If not, the modification is ignored (508). If the modification exceeds the threshold, the value can then be updated at the other address location, either the first or the second, to match a modified value that corresponds to the value after the modification (510). In other words, the values at the first address location and the second address location are the same.Subsequently, a rendering corresponding to one or more features associated with the first address location and the second address location can be updated. 512 Accordingly, modifications between different data sources can be synchronized and the results of these modifications can be rendered for viewing. As discussed, aspects of various approaches presented herein may be light enough to be executed in real time on a device such as a client device, like a personal computer or a game console. Such processing may be performed on or for content generated by or received from the client device, or received from an external source, such as streaming data or other content received over at least one network. In some cases, the processing and / or determination of this content may be performed by one of these other devices, systems, or entities, which then makes it available to the client device (or such receiver) for presentation or other such use. As an example, Fig. 6 illustrates an exemplary network configuration 600 that can be used to provide, generate, modify, encode, process, and / or transmit image data or other such content. In at least one embodiment, a client device 602 can generate or receive data for a session using components of a control application 604 on the client device 602 and data stored locally on that client device. In at least one embodiment, a content application 624 running on a server 620 (e.g., a cloud server or edge server) can initiate a session associated with at least one client device 602, using a session manager and user data stored in a user database 636, and can cause content, such as one or more digital assets (e.g., images, videos, etc.), to be transmitted to the client device 602.Object representations) from an asset repository 634 are determined by a content manager 626. A content manager 626 can work with an image synthesis module 628 to generate or synthesize new objects, digital assets, or other such content for presentation via the client device 602. In at least one embodiment, this image synthesis module 628 can use one or more neural networks, or machine learning models, which can be trained or updated using a training module 632 or system located on or communicating with the server 620.This may include training and / or using a diffusion model 630 to generate content tiles that can be used by an image synthesis module 628 to, for example, apply a non-repeating texture to a region of an environment for which image or video data is presented via a client device 602. At least some of the generated content can be transmitted to the client device 602 using a suitable transmission manager 622 for sending via download, streaming, or another such transmission channel. An encoder may be used to encode and / or compress at least some of this data before it is transmitted to the client device 602.In at least one embodiment, the client device 602, which receives such content, can provide this content to a corresponding control application 604, which may also or alternatively include a graphical user interface 610, a content manager 612, and an image synthesis or diffusion module 614 for use in providing, synthesizing, modifying, or using content for presentation (or other purposes) on or by the client device 602. A decoder can also be used to decode data received over the network(s) 640 for presentation via the client device 602, such as image or video content through a display 606 and audio, such as sounds and music, through at least one audio playback device 608, such as a loudspeaker or headphones.In at least one embodiment, at least part of this content may already be stored, rendered, or accessible on the client device 602, so that transmission over the network 640 is not necessary for at least this part of the content, for example, if this content may have previously been downloaded or stored locally on a hard disk or optical disc. In at least one embodiment, a transmission mechanism, such as data streaming, may be used to transfer this content from the server 620 or the user database 636 to the client device 602. In at least one embodiment, part of this content may be obtained, enhanced, and / or streamed from another source, such as a third-party service 660 or another client device 650, which may also include a content application 662 for generating, enhancing, or providing content.In at least one embodiment, parts of this functionality can be performed using multiple computing devices, or multiple processors within one or more computing devices, which may, for example, include a combination of CPUs and GPUs. In this example, these client devices can include any suitable computing devices, such as a desktop computer, a laptop, a set-top box, a streaming device, a game console, a smartphone, a tablet, a VR headset, AR glasses, a wearable computer, or a smart TV. Each client device can send a request over at least one wired or wireless network, which can include, for example, the internet, Ethernet, a local area network (LAN), or a cellular network, among other such options. In this example, these requests can be sent to an address associated with a cloud provider, which can operate or control one or more electronic resources in a cloud provider environment, such as a data center or server farm.In at least one embodiment, the request can be received or processed by at least one edge server located at a network edge and outside of at least one security layer associated with the cloud provider environment. This reduces latency by allowing client devices to interact with servers located in close proximity, while simultaneously improving the security of resources within the cloud provider environment. In at least one embodiment, such a system can be used to perform graphic rendering operations. In other embodiments, such a system can be used for other purposes, such as providing image or video content for testing or validating autonomous machine applications or for performing deep learning operations. In at least one embodiment, such a system can be implemented using an edge device or involve one or more virtual machines (VMs). In at least one embodiment, such a system can be implemented at least partially in a data center or at least partially using cloud computing resources.

In at least one embodiment, instead of copying data and moving it to different locations in memory (e.g., a read / write operation), the same data can be used at the same memory location for any number of processing tasks (e.g., at the same time, at different times, etc.).In at least one embodiment, when data is used to generate new data as a result of processing, this information can be stored in a new location and shared between different applications. In at least one embodiment, the location of data and a location of updated or modified data can be part of a definition of how a payload is understood within containers. In at least one embodiment, AI services 1418 can be used to perform inference services for executing machine learning models associated with applications (e.g., those tasked with performing one or more processing tasks of an application).

In at least one embodiment, when selecting applications for use in deployment pipelines, a user can also select machine learning models to be used for specific applications. In at least one embodiment, a user may not have a model to use, so a user can select a pre-trained model for use with an application.

In at least one embodiment, a user can use annotation tools within a user interface (a graphical user interface (GUI)) on a computing device. In at least one embodiment, the user 1510 can interact with a GUI via the computing device 1508 to edit or fine-tune (auto)annotations. In at least one embodiment, a polygon editing feature can be used to move the vertices of a polygon to more accurate or fine-tuned locations. In at least one embodiment, once the customer dataset 1506 contains associated ground-truth data, ground-truth data (e.g., from AI-assisted annotation, manual labeling, etc.) can be used during model training to generate a refined model 1512. In at least one embodiment, the customer dataset 1506 can be applied to the initial model 1504 any number of times, and ground-truth data can be used to update parameters of the initial model 1504 until acceptable accuracy is achieved for the refined model 1512.

Figure 15B is an exemplary illustration of a client-server architecture 1532 for enhancing annotation tools with pre-trained annotation models according to at least one embodiment. In at least one embodiment, the AI-supported annotation tool 1536 can be instantiated based on a client-server architecture 1532. In at least one embodiment, the AI-supported annotation tool 1536 can assist radiologists in imaging applications, for example, in identifying organs and irregularities. In at least one embodiment, imaging applications can include software tools that help the user 1510, as a non-limiting example, to identify a few extreme points on a particular organ of interest in raw images 1534 (e.g., in a 3D MRI or CT scan) and automatically receive annotated results for all 2D sections of a particular organ.In at least one embodiment, results can be stored in a data store as training data 1538 and used (for example, and without limitation) as ground-truth data for training. In at least one embodiment, a deep learning model can, for example, when the computing device 1508 sends extreme points for AI-assisted annotation, receive this data as input and return inference results for a segmented organ or segmented irregularity. In at least one embodiment, pre-instantiated annotation tools, such as the AI-assisted annotation tool 1536 in Fig. 15B, can be enhanced by making API calls (e.g., API call 1544) to a server, such as an annotation assistant server 1540, which may include a set of pre-trained models 1542 stored, for example, in an annotation model register.In at least one embodiment, an annotation model registry can store pre-trained models (e.g., machine learning models, such as deep learning models) that are pre-trained to perform AI-assisted annotation on a specific organ or irregularity.

Other variations are consistent with the nature of the present disclosure. Therefore, while the disclosed techniques are receptive to various modifications and alternative constructions, certain illustrated embodiments are shown in the drawings and have been described in detail above. It should be understood, however, that there is no intention to limit the disclosure to any specific form or forms that are disclosed; on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents that are consistent with the nature and scope of the disclosure as defined in the appended claims. The use of the terms "a," "an," "the," and "a," and reference terms in the context of describing the disclosed embodiments (particularly in the context of the following claims) is to be interpreted as covering both singular and plural forms, unless otherwise specified herein or clearly contrary to the context, and not as a definition of a term. The terms "comprising," "having," "including," and "containing" are to be interpreted as open terms (meaning "including but not limited to") unless otherwise noted. The term "connected," unless modified and referring to physical connections, is to be interpreted as partially or wholly contained within, attached to, or joined with, even if something is in between.The mention of values herein is intended as a quick method of individual reference to each separate value falling within the scope, unless otherwise specified herein, and each separate value is incorporated into the patent specification as if it were individually named herein. The use of the term "sentence" (e.g., "a set of things") or "substance," unless otherwise noted or contradicted by context, is to be interpreted as a non-empty collection comprising one or more elements. Furthermore, unless otherwise noted or contradicted by context, the term "substance" of a corresponding sentence does not necessarily denote a proper substance of the corresponding sentence; however, the substance and the corresponding sentence may be the same. A conjunctive expression, such as phrases of the form "at least one of A, B, and C" or "at least one of A, B, and C," unless specifically stated otherwise or otherwise clearly contradicted by the context, is to be understood otherwise in the context as it is generally used to present that a thing, concept, etc., can be either A or B or C, or a non-empty clause of the sentence of A, B, and C. For example, in an illustrative example of a sentence containing three elements, the conjunctive expressions "at least one of A, B, and C" and "at least one of A, B, and C" refer to any one of the following sentences: {A}, {B}, {C}, {A, B}, {A, C}, {B, C}, {A, B, C}. Such a conjunctive expression therefore generally does not intend to imply that certain embodiments require that at least one of A, at least one of B and at least one of C be present.Furthermore, unless otherwise noted or contradicted by the context, the term "plurality" indicates that a state is plural (e.g., "a multitude of things" indicates multiple things). A multitude is at least two things, but may be more if this is either explicitly stated or indicated by the context. Additionally, unless otherwise stated or clear from the context, the phrase "based on" means "at least partly based on" and not "exclusively based on". The operations of processes described herein may be performed in any suitable order unless otherwise specified herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by the context. In at least one embodiment, a process such as those described herein (or variants and / or combinations thereof) is carried out under the control of one or more computer systems configured with executable instructions and implemented as code (e.g., executable instructions, one or more computer programs, or one or more applications), executed together on one or more processors, by hardware, or combinations thereof. In at least one embodiment, code is stored on a computer-readable storage medium, for example, in the form of a computer program comprising a plurality of instructions executable by one or more processors.In at least one embodiment, a computer-readable storage medium is a non-transient computer-readable storage medium that excludes transitory signals (e.g., a propagating transient electrical or electromagnetic transmission) but includes a non-transient data storage circuit (e.g., buffers, cache, and queues) within transceivers of transitory signals. In at least one embodiment, code (e.g., executable code or source code) is stored on a set of one or more non-transient computer-readable storage media that have executable instructions stored thereon (or on other memory to store executable instructions) which, when executed by one or more processors of a computer system (i.e., as a result of execution), cause the computer system to perform the operations described herein.In at least one embodiment, a set of non-transient machine-readable storage media comprises multiple non-transient machine-readable storage media. One or more individual non-transient storage media within a set of multiple non-transient machine-readable storage media lack all code, while multiple non-transient machine-readable storage media together store all code. In at least one embodiment, executable instructions are executed such that different instructions are executed by different processors—for example, a non-transient machine-readable storage medium stores instructions, and a central processing unit (CPU) executes some instructions, while a graphics processing unit (GPU) executes other instructions.In at least one embodiment, different components of a computer system have separate processors, and different processors execute different subsets of instructions. Accordingly, in at least one embodiment, computer systems are configured to implement one or more services that, alone or together, perform operations of the processes described herein, and such computer systems are configured with applicable hardware and / or software that enables the performance of operations. Furthermore, a computer system implementing at least one embodiment of the present disclosure is a single device, and in another embodiment, it is a distributed computer system comprising several devices that operate differently, such that distributed computer systems perform the operations described herein and such that a single device does not perform all operations. The use of an example and all examples or exemplary phrasing (e.g., "such as"), as provided herein, is intended solely to make embodiments of the disclosure more readily understandable and does not constitute a limitation of the scope of the disclosure, unless otherwise claimed. No expression in the patent specification shall be construed as implying that an unclaimed element is essential for the exercise of the disclosure. All references, including publications, patent applications, and patents mentioned herein, are hereby incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each reference had been individually and specifically incorporated by reference and set forth herein in its entirety. In the description and claims, the terms "coupled" and "connected," along with their derivatives, may be used. It is understood that these terms may not be intended as synonyms. Rather, in specific examples, "connected" or "coupled" may be used to indicate that two or more elements are in direct or indirect physical or electrical contact with each other. "Coupled" may also mean that two or more elements are not in direct contact with each other but nevertheless work together or interact. Unless specifically stated otherwise, it may be apparent throughout the patent specification that terms such as "processing", "calculating", "calculating", "determining" or the like refer to operations and / or processes of a computer or computing system, or a similar electronic computing device, which manipulate data represented as physical quantities, such as electronic quantities, within the registers and / or memory of the computing system and / or transform them into other data represented likewise as physical quantities within the memory, registers or other such information storage, transmission or display devices of the computing system. Similarly, the term "processor" can refer to a device or part of a device that processes electronic data from registers and / or memories and transforms that electronic data into other electronic data that can be stored in registers and / or memories. As non-restrictive examples, the "processor" can be a CPU or a GPU. A "computing platform" can include one or more processors. As used herein, "software" processes can include, for example, software and / or hardware entities that perform work over time, such as tasks, threads, and intelligent agents. Furthermore, each process can refer to multiple processes for executing instructions sequentially or in parallel, continuously or intermittently.The terms “system” and “procedure” are used synonymously here insofar as the system may contain one or more procedures and procedures may be considered as a system. This document may refer to obtaining, acquiring, receiving, or inputting analog or digital data into a subsystem, computer system, or computer-implemented machine. Obtaining, acquiring, receiving, or inputting analog and digital data can be implemented in various ways, such as receiving data as parameters of a function call or an application programming interface (API) call. In some implementations, the process of obtaining, acquiring, receiving, or inputting analog and digital data can be implemented by transferring data over a serial or parallel interface. In another implementation, the process of obtaining, acquiring, receiving, or inputting analog and digital data can be implemented by transferring data over a computer network from a providing entity to a receiving entity.References can also be made to providing, outputting, transmitting, sending, or presenting analog or digital data. In various examples, the process for providing, outputting, transmitting, sending, or presenting analog or digital data can be implemented by transferring data as input or output parameters of a function call, a parameter of an application programming interface, or an inter-process communication mechanism.
