Applying Lightweight Deep Learning-Based Virtual Vision Sensing Technology to Realize and Develop New Media Interactive Art Installation

The work intends to optimize the situation that interactive art devices and remote control based on traditional technology cannot meet people’s actual needs to a certain extent. With the assistance of Lightweight Deep Learning (LDL) models, Interactive Artistic Installation (IAI) shows excellent creative potential in terms of dimension, space, and sense. Virtual Vision Sensing Technology (VST) explores the emotional semantics in the human-machine environment with the help of interactive art, finds the emotional interaction elements between human and machine, and promotes Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). From the perspective of the media elements of interactive art, this paper reviews the virtual VST that subverts the expression of interactive art. Then, from the perspective of artistic creation, the impact of virtual VST on IAI thinking, methods, and artistic experience is analyzed. Thereupon, a scene construction method is designed where the physical equipment is premodeled. The model is loaded in real time with visual information. The proposed method does not require complex vision and laser scanning equipment or high-configured computer systems. The proposed new media IAI model realizes the real-time loading of the scene model. According to the physical equipment dynamic information obtained by the visual data acquisition system, the proposed method can keep the virtual scene and physical models in motion synchronization. Finally, experiment results corroborate that the environment will significantly interfere with the experimental results. The training data set with boundary occlusion will be more suitable for model training and better test results (about 97% accuracy). Hence, the research content can make the Virtual Reality works have better performance, especially the sense of experience from the perspective of aesthetics. Meanwhile, it also enriches the research theory in the field of new media art installation technology.

Trustworthy AI: Closing the gap between development and integration of AI systems in ophthalmic practice

An increasing number of artificial intelligence (AI) systems are being proposed in ophthalmology, motivated by the variety and amount of clinical and imaging data, as well as their potential benefits at the different stages of patient care. Despite achieving close or even superior performance to that of experts, there is a critical gap between development and integration of AI systems in ophthalmic practice. This work focuses on the importance of trustworthy AI to close that gap. We identify the main aspects or challenges that need to be considered along the AI design pipeline so as to generate systems that meet the requirements to be deemed trustworthy, including those concerning accuracy, resiliency, reliability, safety, and accountability. We elaborate on mechanisms and considerations to address those aspects or challenges, and define the roles and responsibilities of the different stakeholders involved in AI for ophthalmic care, i.e., AI developers, reading centers, healthcare providers, healthcare institutions, ophthalmological societies and working groups or committees, patients, regulatory bodies, and payers. Generating trustworthy AI is not a responsibility of a sole stakeholder. There is an impending necessity for a collaborative approach where the different stakeholders are represented along the AI design pipeline, from the definition of the intended use to post-market surveillance after regulatory approval. This work contributes to establish such multi-stakeholder interaction and the main action points to be taken so that the potential benefits of AI reach real-world ophthalmic settings.
