    Description

    Bifrost is a powerful graphical programming environment for creating procedural visual effects simulations, geometry, rigging, and animation. In this session, we'll showcase new, modular, deep-learning workflows in Maya software using Bifrost. We will demonstrate how to use Bifrost for procedurally generating training data for AI systems, as well as how to deploy trained AI models in Bifrost using new Bifrost nodes designed for deep learning. The session will include practical examples of industry problems that are suited to a media and entertainment audience, such as using AI for complex rigging kinematic solvers.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn about fundamental concepts of machine learning and how they apply to challenges in media and entertainment workflows.
    • Learn how to use Bifrost for Maya to procedurally generate training data to train a deep neural network to solve a concrete task.
    • Learn about deploying a trained neural network in Maya using Bifrost.
