(1888PressRelease) May 22, 2024 - Geneva, Switzerland – MPAI – Moving Picture, Audio and Data Coding by Artificial Intelligence – the international, non-profit, and unaffiliated organisation developing AI-based data coding standards has concluded its 44th General Assembly (MPAI-44) with an unprecedented display of productivity.

Three Calls for Technologies:
- Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE): Six Degrees of Freedom (CAE-6DF) https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cae/6df/v1-0/ to develop an ambitious standard that will enable users to have the spatial experience of a remote audio environment by “walking into it”. Register at https://tinyurl.com/bdhyrxjt for the online presentation on 2024/05/28 16:00 UTC.

- Connected Autonomous Vehicle (MPAI-CAV) – Technologies (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cav/tec/v1-0/) to extend the existing MPAI-CAV – Architecture standard by supporting reference to specific technologies that are the target of the Call. Register at for the online presentation on 2024/06/06 16:00 UTC.

- MPAI Metaverse Model (MPAI-MMM) – Technologies (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-mmm/tec/v1-0/) to extend the existing MPAI-MMM – Architecture standard by supporting reference to specific technologies that are the target of the Call. Register at https://tinyurl.com/bdfvctpw for the online presentation on 2024/05/31 16:00 UTC.

Four new Standards published with a request for Community Comments:
- Object and Scene Description (MPAI-OSD) V1.1 (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-osd/v1-1/) includes a new Use Case for automatic audio-visual analysis of television programs and new functionalities for Visual and Audio-Visual Objects and Scenes.
- Context-based Audio Experience (MPAI-CAE) Use Cases (CAE-USC) V2.2 (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cae/usc/v2-2/) supports new functionalities in Audio Object and Audio Scene Descriptors.

- Multimodal Conversation (MPAI-MMC) V2.2 (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-mmc/v2-2/) introduces new AI Modules and new Data Formats to support the new MPAI-OSD Television Media Analysis Use Case.
- Portable Avatar Format (MPAI-PAF) V1.2 (https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-paf/v1-2/) extends the specification of the Portable Avatar to support new functionality requested by the MPAI-CAV and MPAI-MMM Calls.
One Reference Software Specification:
- Context-based Audio Experience (MPAI-CAE) Use Cases (CAE-USC) V1.1. ( https://tinyurl.com/3s2hmpvv )

MPAI’s scope of activities is quite wide as shown by its 11 already published standards that include 18 Use Cases and some 75 AI Modules, and 65 Data Types shared across different standards. MPAI has succeeded in developing a common layer of technologies supporting a variety of application domains.
MPAI is continuing its work plan that involving the following activities:
1. AI Framework (MPAI-AIF https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-aif/): reference software, conformance testing, and application are-as.
2. AI for Health (MPAI-AIH https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-aih/): reference model and technologies for a system enabling clients to improve models processing health data and federated learning to share the training.
3. Context-based Audio Enhancement (CAE-DC https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cae/): new projects.
4. Connected Autonomous Vehicle (MPAI-CAV https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cav/): Functional Requirements of CAV architecture.
5. Compression and Understanding of Industrial Data (MPAI-CUI https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-cui/): preparation for extension of existing standard.
6. Human and Machine Communication (MPAI-HMC https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-hmc/): model and technologies enabling a human or a machine to communicate with a machine or a human in a different cultural environment.
7. Multimodal Conversation (MPAI-MMC https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-mmc/): reference software, drafting conformance testing, and new areas.
8. MPAI Metaverse Model (MPAI-MMM https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-mmm/): reference software and metaverse technologies requiring standards.
9. Neural Network Watermarking (MPAI-NNW https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-nnw/): reference software for enhanced applications.
10. Portable Avatar Format (MPAI-PAF https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-ara/): reference software, conformance testing and new areas.
11. End-to-End Video Coding (MPAI-EEV https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-eev/): video coding using AI-based End-to-End Video coding.
12. AI-Enhanced Video Coding (MPAI-EVC https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-evc/). video coding with AI tools added to existing tools.
13. Server-based Predictive Multiplayer Gaming (MPAI-SPG https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-spg/): technical report on mitigation of data loss and cheating.
14. XR Venues (MPAI-XRV https://mpai.community/standards/mpai-xrv/): preparation for the development of the standard.
