This article briefs a PhD project in creative arts in which the practices were shaped by research on Gilles Deleuze articulation of cinematic narrative in the books Cinema1: movement-image (1986) and Cinema2: time-image (1989). The project intends to develop a narrative structure for interactive storytelling that is specific to the properties of Virtual Reality (VR) as a cinematic medium. The research focuses on developing a method for designing and integrating pre-recorded content into an interactive ...

However, the most challenging point in deep learning-based stitching is to obtain pairs of input images with a narrow field of view and ground truth images with a wide field of view captured from real-world scenes. To overcome this difficulty, we develop a weakly-supervised learning mechanism to train the stitching model without requiring genuine ground truth images. In addition, we ...

To this end, this contribution derives a general model of a mixed model assembly line. It then proposes and evaluates an event-driven rescheduling model for JIS deliveries. The results indicate that rework due to missing JIS components can be avoided without compromising performance.
