US Patent 11669726 Methods and systems for interpolation of disparate inputs

Systems and methods are provided for interpolation of disparate inputs. A radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) may be used to interpolate the pose of a digital character. Input parameters to the RBFNN may be separated by data type (e.g. angular vs. linear) and manipulated within the RBFNN by distance functions specific to the data type (e.g. use an angular distance function for the angular input data). A weight may be applied to each distance to compensate for input data representing different variables (e.g. clavicle vs. shoulder). The output parameters of the RBFNN may be a set of independent values, which may be combined into combination values (e.g. representing x, y, z, w angular value in SO(3) space).
