MPAI celebrates 30th month of activity publishing Enhanced Audio V2 and Metaverse Functionalities Profiles for Community Comments
MPAI has concluded its 30th General Assembly (MPAI-30) approving publication of
WD0.3 of the MPAI Metaverse Model Functionalities Profiles for Comunity Comments and Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) Technical Specification Version 2.
- (1888PressRelease) March 26, 2023 - Geneva, Switzerland Today the international, non-profit, unaffiliated Moving Picture, Audio and Data Coding by Artificial Intelligence (MPAI) standards developing organisation has concluded its 30th General Assembly (MPAI-30) approving publication of WD0.3 of the MPAI Metaverse Model Functionalities Profiles for Community Comments and the Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) Technical Specification Version 2.
The MPAI Metaverse Model (MPAI-MMM) Functionalities Profiles implements the second step of the MPAI roadmap of interoperability of metaverse implementations. It defines the pro-tocol infrastructure enabling the different elements of a metaverse instance to request other ele-ments of the same or different metaverse instances to execute actions, such as locating and ani-mating an avatar. The document is posted at https://rb.gy/qhwi3j. Anybody can send comments to the MPAI Secre-tariat by the 17th of April 2023. The document will be presented online on the 7th of April 2023 with a view to elicit comments for consideration and possible inclusion in the final version to be approved on 19 April by MPAI-31.

The Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) Technical Specification
(https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cae/) allows a device to describe an audio scene in terms of audio objects and their directions. MPAI uses this Tech-nical Specification to enable human interaction with autonomous vehicles, avatar-based vide-oconference and metaverse applications.
These results are added to 6 Technical, 2 Reference Software, 1 Conformance Testing, and 1 Performance Assessment Specifications and 1Technical Report, 11 excellent reasons to celebrate 30 months of MPAI activity. On the anniversary day 31st of March 2023 MPAI will hold two parallel time-shifted events to cover most potential listeners where the 16 main MPAI activities will be presented. See the event program

MPAI is continuing its work plan comprising the development of the following Technical Speci-fications:
1) AI Framework (MPAI-AIF https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-aif/).
V2 Technical Specification will enable an implementer to establish a secure AIF environment to execute AI Workflows (AIW) composed of AI Modules (AIM).
2) Avatar Representation and Animation (MPAI-ARA https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-ara/ ). V1 Technical Specification will support creation and animation of interoperable human-like avatar models expressing a Personal Status.
3) Multimodal Conversation (MPAI-MMC
https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-mmc/). V2 Technical Specification will generalise the notion of Emotion by adding Cognitive State and Social Attitude and specify a new data type called Standard for Personal Status.
The MPAI work plan also includes exploratory activities, some of which are close to becoming standard or technical report projects:
1) AI Health (MPAI-AIH https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-aih).
Targets an architecture where smartphones store users health data processed using AI and AI Models are updated using Federated Learning.
2) Connected Autonomous Vehicles (MPAI-CAV https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cav). Targets the Human-CAV Interaction En-vironment Sensing, Autonomous Motion, and Motion Actuation subsystems implemented as AI Workflows.
3) End-to-End Video Coding (MPAI-EEV
https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-eev). Extends the video coding frontiers using AI-based End-to-End Video coding.
4) AI-Enhanced Video Coding (MPAI-EVC
https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-evc). Improves existing video coding with AI tools for short-to-medium term applications.
5) Server-based Predictive Multiplayer Gaming (MPAI-SPG https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-spg). Uses AI to train neural net-works that help an online gaming server to compensate data losses and detects false data.
6) XR Venues (MPAI-XRV https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-xrv).
Identifies common AI Modules used across various XR-enabled and AI-enhanced use cases where venues may be both real and virtual.
It is still a good opportunity for legal entities supporting the MPAI mission and able to contribute to the development of standards for the efficient use of data to join MPA (https://mpai.community/how-to-join/join/).
