Abstract: A system for identifying the contribution of a given sound source to a composite audio track, the system comprising an audio input unit operable to receive an input composite audio track comprising two or more sound sources, including the given sound source, an audio generation unit operable to generate, using a model of a sound source, an approximation of the contribution of the given sound source to the composite audio track, an audio comparison unit operable to compare the generated audio to at least a portion of the composite audio track to determine whether the generated audio provides an approximation of the composite audio track that meets a threshold degree of similarity, and an audio identification unit operable to identify, when the threshold is met, the generated audio as a suitable representation of the contribution of the sound source to the composite audio track.

Abstract: A method of generating an image includes receiving a video stream, the video stream having a two-dimensional video of a three-dimensional scene captured by a video camera; determining a mapping between locations in the two-dimensional video of the scene and locations in a three-dimensional representation of the scene, the mapping being determined based on a known parameter of the video camera and a known size of a feature in the three-dimensional scene; generating a three-dimensional graphical representation of the scene based on the determined mapping; determining a virtual camera angle from which the three-dimensional graphical representation of the scene is to be viewed; rendering an image corresponding to the graphical representation of the scene viewed from the determined virtual camera angle, and outputting the rendered image for display.

Abstract: A method of obtaining a head-related transfer function for a user is provided. The method comprises generating an audio signal for output by a handheld device and outputting the generated audio signal at a plurality of locations by moving the handheld device to those locations. The audio output by the handheld device is detected at left-ear and right-ear microphones. A pose of the handheld device relative to the user's head is determined for at least some of the locations. One or more personalised HRTF features are then determined based on the detected audio and corresponding determined poses of the handheld device. The one or more personalised HRTF features are then mapped to a higher-quality HRTF for the user, wherein the higher-quality HRTF corresponds to an HRTF measured in an anechoic environment. This mapping may be learned using machine learning, for example. A corresponding system is also provided.

Abstract: A system for adjusting the pose of a camera relative to a subject in a scene is provided. The system comprises a camera operable to capture images of a scene; an identification unit configured to identify an object of interest in images of the scene; a pose processor configured to obtain a pose of the object of interest in the scene relative to the camera; a scene analyser operable to determine, based on at least one of the obtained pose of the object of interest and images captured by the camera, a scene quality associated with images captured by the camera. A controller is configured to cause the pose of the camera to be adjusted based on a determination that the scene quality of an image captured at a current pose is less than a threshold value. A corresponding device is also provided.
