Title: Distributed computing system with a synthetic data as a service frameset assembly engine

Description:
BACKGROUND 
     Users rely on different types of technological systems to accomplish tasks. Technological systems may be improved based on machine-learning that uses statistical techniques to give computers the ability progressively improve performance of a specific task with data, without being explicitly programmed. For example, machine learning can be used for data security, personal security, fraud detection, healthcare, natural language processing, online searching and recommendations, financial trading and smart cars. For each of these fields or domains, machine learning models are trained with training datasets that are example sets of data used to create the framework for matching learning tasks and machine learning applications. For example, facial recognition systems can be trained to compare the unique features of a person&#39;s face to a set of known features of faces to properly identify the person. With the ever-increasing use of machine learning in different fields, and the importance of properly training machine learning models, improvements to computing operations of a machine learning training system would provide more efficient performance of machine learning tasks and applications and improve user navigation of graphical user interfaces of machine learning training systems. 
     SUMMARY 
     Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing a distributed computing system that supports synthetic data as a service. By way of background, distributed computing systems may operate based on service-oriented architecture, where services are provided using different service models. At a high level, a service model may offer abstraction from underlying operations associated with providing the corresponding service. Examples of service models include Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, Software as a Service, and Function as a Service. With any of these models, customers develop, run, manage, aspects of the service without having to maintain or develop operational features that are abstracted using the service-oriented architecture. 
     Turning to machine learning and training datasets, machine-learning uses statistical techniques to give computers the ability progressively improve performance of a specific task with data, without being explicitly programmed. Training datasets are an integral part of the field of machine learning. High-quality datasets can help improve machine learning algorithms and computing operations associated with machine learning hardware and software. Creating a high-quality training dataset may take a significant amount of effort. For example, labeling data for a training dataset can be particularly tedious which often leads inaccuracies in the labeling process. 
     Conventional methods for finding training datasets fall significantly short when it comes to democratizing or making training datasets universally available for use across several different domains. Moreover, theoretical solutions for developing machine-learning training datasets simply have not been fully defined or described because the infrastructure for implementing such solutions is inaccessible or far too expensive to undertake to realize alternatives to current techniques for developing training datasets. Overall, comprehensive functionality around developing machine-learning training datasets is limited in conventional machine-learning training services.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Distributed computing systems can be leveraged to provide different types of service-oriented models. By way of background, a service model may offer abstraction from underlying operations associated with providing the corresponding service. Examples of service models include Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, Software as a Service, and Function as a Service. With any of these models, customers develop, run, manage, aspects of the service without having to maintain or develop operational features that are abstracted using the service-oriented architecture. 
     Machine-learning that uses statistical techniques to give computers the ability progressively improve performance of a specific task with data, without being explicitly programmed. For example, machine learning can be used for data security, personal security, fraud detection, healthcare, natural language processing, online searching and recommendations, financial trading and smart cars. For each of these fields or domains, machine learning models are trained with training datasets that are example sets of data used to create the framework for matching learning tasks and machine learning applications. Training datasets are an integral part of the field of machine learning. High-quality datasets can help improve machine learning algorithms and computing operations associated with machine learning hardware and software. Machine learning platforms operate based on training datasets that support supervised and semi-supervised machine learning algorithms; however high-quality training datasets are usually difficult and expensive to produce because the large amount of time needed to label the data. Machine learning models depend on high-quality labeled training dataset for supervised learning such that the model can provide reliable results in predictions, classification, and analysis of different types of phenomena. Without the right type of training dataset, developing a reliable machine learning model may be impossible. A training dataset includes labeled, tagged and annotated entries to train the machine-learning algorithm effectively. 
     Conventional methods for finding training datasets fall significantly short when it comes to democratizing or making training datasets universally available for use across several different domains. Currently such limited solutions include outsourcing the labeling functions, repurposing existing training data and labels, harvesting your own training data and labels from free sources, relying on third-party models that have been pre-trained on labeled data, and leveraging crowdsourcing labeling services. Most of these solutions are either time consuming, expensive, inappropriate for sensitive projects, or plainly not robust enough to tackle large scale machine-learning projects. Moreover, theoretical solutions for developing machine-learning training datasets simply have not been fully defined or described because the infrastructure for implementing such solutions is inaccessible or far too expensive to undertake to realize alternatives to current techniques for developing training datasets. Overall, comprehensive functionality around developing machine-learning training datasets is limited in conventional machine-learning training services. 
     Embodiments described herein provide simple and efficient methods and systems for implementing a distributed computing system that provides synthetic data as service (“SDaaS”). SDaaS may refer to a distributed (cloud) computing system service that is implemented using a service-oriented architecture to provide machine-learning training services while abstracting underlying operations that are managed via the SDaaS service. For example, the SDaaS provides a machine-learning training system that allows customers to configure, generate, access, manage and process synthetic data training datasets for machine-learning. In particular, the SDaaS operates without the complexity typically associated with manual development of training datasets. SDaaS can be delivered in a number ways based on SDaaS engines, managers, modules or components, which include asset assembly engine, scene assembly engine, frameset assembly engine, frameset package generator, frameset package store, feedback loop engine, and crowdsourcing engine. The observable effect of implementing the SDaaS on a distributed computing system is the mass production and availability of synthetic data assets that support generating training datasets based on intrinsic-parameter variation and extrinsic-parameter variation, where intrinsic-parameter variation and extrinsic-parameter variation provide programmable machine-learning data representations of assets and scenes. Additional specific functionality is provided using components of the SDaaS as described in more detail below. 
     It is contemplated herein that a source asset may include several different parameters that may be computationally determined based on known techniques in the art. By way of example, a source asset may refer to a three-dimensional representation of geometric data. The source asset may be expressed as a mesh made of triangles, where the smoother the triangles and the more detailed the surface of the model is, the bigger the size of the source. In this regard, a source asset can be represented across a spectrum from a high polygon model with lots of detail to a low polygon model with less detail. The process of representing a source asset in varying levels of detail may be referred to as decimation. A low polygon model can be used in different types of processes that would otherwise be computationally expensive for a high model. As such, an automated decimation process may be implemented to store a source asset in different levels of detail. Other types of programmable parameters may be determined and associated with a source asset that is stored as a synthetic asset. 
     Embodiments of the present invention operate on a two-tier programmable parameter system where a machine-learning training service may automatically or based on manual intervention train a model based on accessing and determining first-tier (e.g., asset parameter) and/or a second tier (e.g., scene or frameset parameter) parameters that are needed to improve a training dataset and by extension model training. A machine-learning training service may support deep learning and a deep learning network and other types of machine learning algorithms and networks. The machine-learning training service may also implement a generative adversarial network as a type of unsupervised machine learning. The SDaaS may leverage these underlying tiered parameters in different ways. For example, how much to charge for framesets, how to develop different types of framesets for specific devices knowing the device parameters and being able to manipulate the parameters in developing training datasets. 
     Example Operating Environment and Schematic Illustrations 
     With reference to  FIG. 1A  and  FIG. 1B , the components of the distributed computing system  100  may operate together to provide functionality for the SDaaS described herein. The distributed computing system  100  supports processing synthetic data assets for generating and processing training datasets for machine-learning. At a high level, the distributed computing supports a distributed framework for mass production of training datasets. In particular, a distributed computing architecture built on features include file compression, GPU enabled hardware at scale, unstructured storage, a distributed backbone network, inherently support the capacity to provide the SDaaS functionality in a distributed manner such that a plurality of user (e.g., artists or data admins) may simultaneously access an operate on synthetic data assets.

The first source asset and the second source asset may be ingested where ingesting a source asset comprises automatically computing values for asset-variation parameters of the source asset. For example,  FIG. 2A  includes source asset  210  ingested into an asset store (i.e., asset  220 ). The asset-variation parameters are programmable for machine-learning. The asset assembly engine may generate a first synthetic data asset comprising a first set of values for the asset-variation parameters and may generate a second synthetic data asset comprising a second set of values for the asset-variation parameters. The first synthetic data asset and the second synthetic data asset are stored synthetic data asset store. 
     The distributed SDaaS upload interface (e.g., interface  128 A or  128 B) is associated with an SDaaS integrated development environment (IDE). The SDaaS IDE supports identifying additional values for asset-variation parameters for source assets. The values are associated with generating training datasets based on intrinsic-parameter variation and extrinsic-parameter variation, where intrinsic-parameter variation and extrinsic-parameter variation provide programmable machine-learning data representations of assets and scenes. Ingesting source assets is based on a machine-learning synthetic data standard comprising a file format and a dataset-training architecture. File format may refer to hard standards while the dataset-training architecture may refer to soft standards, for example, automated or manual human intervention.

     The scene assembly engine  112  may be configured to receive a selection of a first synthetic data asset and a selection of a second synthetic data asset from a distributed synthetic data as a service (SDaaS) integrated development environment (IDE). For example, with reference to  FIG. 4 , assets and parameters  410  at a first tier may be used to generate a scene and parameters  420  at a second tier and further used to define framesets  430 . The synthetic data asset is associated with asset-variation parameters and scene-variation parameters. The asset-variation parameters and scene-variation parameters are programmable for machine-learning. The scene assembly engine may receive values for generating a synthetic data scene, where the values correspond to asset-variation parameters or scene-variation parameters. Based on the values, generate the synthetic data scene using the first synthetic data asset and the second synthetic data asset. 
     A scene assembly engine client (e.g., client device  130 B) may be configured to receive a query for a synthetic data asset, wherein the query is received via the SDaaS IDE and generate a query result synthetic data asset; and cause display of the synthetic data scene generated based on the query result synthetic data. Generating the synthetic data scene may be based on values for scene generation received from at least two scene assembly engine clients.

     The frameset assembly engine  114  may be configured to access a synthetic data scene and determine a first set of values for scene-variation parameters, wherein the first set of values are automatically determined for generating a synthetic data scene frameset. The frameset assembly engine may also generate the synthetic data scene frameset based on the first set of values, where the synthetic data scene frameset comprises at least a first frame in the frameset comprising the synthetic data scene updated based on a value for a scene-variation parameter; and store the synthetic data scene frameset. A second set of values for scene-variation parameters are manually selected for generating the synthetic data scene frameset. The second set of values are manually selected using a synthetic data as a service (SDaaS) integrated development environment (IDE) that supports a machine-learning synthetic data standard comprising a file format and a dataset-training architecture. Generating the synthetic data scene frameset comprises iteratively generating frames for the synthetic data scene frameset based on updating the synthetic data scene based on the first set of values. 
     A frameset package generator  116  may be configured to access a frameset package generator profile, where the frameset package generator profile is associated with a first image generation device, where the frameset package generator profile comprises known device-variability parameters associated with the first image generation device. A frameset package is based on the frameset package generator profile, where the frameset package generator profiles comprises values for the known device-variability parameters; and store the frameset package. The frameset package comprises a category that is based on the least two synthetic data scenes. Generating a frameset package is based on an anticipated machine learning algorithm that will be trained with the frameset package, where the anticipated machine learning algorithm is identified in the frameset package generator profile. The frameset package comprises assigning a value quantifier to the frameset package. The frameset package is generated based on synthetic data scene comprising a synthetic data asset. 
     The frameset package store  118  may be configured to receive, from an frameset package query interface, a query for a frameset package, where the frameset query interface comprises a plurality of frameset package categories, identify a query result frameset package based on a frameset package profile; and communicate the query result frameset package. At least a portion of the query triggers an automatically suggested frameset package, where the automatically suggested frameset is associated with synthetic data scene of the frameset, the synthetic data scene having a synthetic data asset.

For example, as described above, many of the elements described herein may be implemented as discrete or distributed components or in conjunction with other components, and in any suitable combination and location. Other arrangements and elements (e.g., machines, interfaces, functions, orders, and groupings of functions, etc.) can be used in addition to or instead of those shown. 
     Data centers can support distributed computing environment  1300  that includes cloud computing platform  1310 , rack  1320 , and node  1330  (e.g., computing devices, processing units, or blades) in rack  1320 . The system can be implemented with cloud computing platform  1310  that runs cloud services across different data centers and geographic regions. Cloud computing platform  1310  can implement fabric controller  1340  component for provisioning and managing resource allocation, deployment, upgrade, and management of cloud services. Typically, cloud computing platform  1310  acts to store data or run service applications in a distributed manner. Cloud computing infrastructure  1310  in a data center can be configured to host and support operation of endpoints of a particular service application. Cloud computing infrastructure  1310  may be a public cloud, a private cloud, or a dedicated cloud. 
     Node  1330  can be provisioned with host  1350  (e.g., operating system or runtime environment) running a defined software stack on node  1330 . Node  1330  can also be configured to perform specialized functionality (e.g., compute nodes or storage nodes) within cloud computing platform  1310 . Node  1330  is allocated to run one or more portions of a service application of a tenant. A tenant can refer to a customer utilizing resources of cloud computing platform  1310 . Service application components of cloud computing platform  1310  that support a particular tenant can be referred to as a tenant infrastructure or tenancy. The terms service application, application, or service are used interchangeably herein and broadly refer to any software, or portions of software, that run on top of, or access storage and compute device locations within, a datacenter. 
     When more than one separate service application is being supported by nodes  1330 , nodes  1330  may be partitioned into virtual machines (e.g., virtual machine  1352  and virtual machine  1354 ). Physical machines can also concurrently run separate service applications. The virtual machines or physical machines can be configured as individualized computing environments that are supported by resources  1360  (e.g., hardware resources and software resources) in cloud computing platform  1310 . It is contemplated that resources can be configured for specific service applications. Further, each service application may be divided into functional portions such that each functional portion is able to run on a separate virtual machine. In cloud computing platform  1310 , multiple servers may be used to run service applications and perform data storage operations in a cluster. In particular, the servers may perform data operations independently but exposed as a single device referred to as a cluster. Each server in the cluster can be implemented as a node. 
     Client device  1380  may be linked to a service application in cloud computing platform  1310 . Client device  1380  may be any type of computing device, which may correspond to computing device  1300  described with reference to  FIG. 13 , for example. Client device  1380  can be configured to issue commands to cloud computing platform  1310 . In embodiments, client device  1380  may communicate with service applications through a virtual Internet Protocol (IP) and load balancer or other means that direct communication requests to designated endpoints in cloud computing platform  1310 . The components of cloud computing platform  1310  may communicate with each other over a network (not shown), which may include, without limitation, one or more local area networks (LANs) and/or wide area networks (WANs).

The various blocks of  FIG. 14  are shown with lines for the sake of conceptual clarity, and other arrangements of the described components and/or component functionality are also contemplated. For example, one may consider a presentation component such as a display device to be an I/O component. Also, processors have memory. We recognize that such is the nature of the art, and reiterate that the diagram of  FIG. 14  is merely illustrative of an exemplary computing device that can be used in connection with one or more embodiments of the present invention. Distinction is not made between such categories as “workstation,” “server,” “laptop,” “hand-held device,” etc., as all are contemplated within the scope of  FIG. 14  and reference to “computing device.” 
     Computing device  1400  typically includes a variety of computer-readable media. Computer-readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by computing device  1400  and includes both volatile and nonvolatile media, removable and non-removable media. By way of example, and not limitation, computer-readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. 
     Computer storage media include volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data.

     With reference to the distributed computing system synthetic data as a service, distributed computing system synthetic data as a service components refer to integrated components for providing a synthetic data as a service. The integrated components refer to the hardware architecture and software framework that support functionality within the system. The hardware architecture refers to physical components and interrelationships thereof and the software framework refers to software providing functionality that can be implemented with hardware embodied on a device. 
     The end-to-end software-based system can operate within the system components to operate computer hardware to provide system functionality. At a low level, hardware processors execute instructions selected from a machine language (also referred to as machine code or native) instruction set for a given processor. The processor recognizes the native instructions and performs corresponding low level functions relating, for example, to logic, control and memory operations. Low level software written in machine code can provide more complex functionality to higher levels of software. As used herein, computer-executable instructions includes any software, including low level software written in machine code, higher level software such as application software and any combination thereof. In this regard, the system components can manage resources and provide services for system functionality. Any other variations and combinations thereof are contemplated with embodiments of the present invention. 
     By way of example, the distributed computing system synthetic data as a service can include an API library that includes specifications for routines, data structures, object classes, and variables may support the interaction between the hardware architecture of the device and the software framework of distributed computing system synthetic data as a service. These APIs include configuration specifications for the distributed computing system synthetic data as a service such that the different components therein can communicate with each other in the distributed computing system synthetic data as a service, as described herein. 
     Having identified various components utilized herein, it should be understood that any number of components and arrangements may be employed to achieve the desired functionality within the scope of the present disclosure. For example, the components in the embodiments depicted in the figures are shown with lines for the sake of conceptual clarity. Other arrangements of these and other components may also be implemented. For example, although some components are depicted as single components, many of the elements described herein may be implemented as discrete or distributed components or in conjunction with other components, and in any suitable combination and location. Some elements may be omitted altogether. Moreover, various functions described herein as being performed by one or more entities may be carried out by hardware, firmware, and/or software, as described below. For instance, various functions may be carried out by a processor executing instructions stored in memory. As such, other arrangements and elements (e.g., machines, interfaces, functions, orders, and groupings of functions, etc.) can be used in addition to or instead of those shown. 
     Embodiments described in the paragraphs below may be combined with one or more of the specifically described alternatives. In particular, an embodiment that is claimed may contain a reference, in the alternative, to more than one other embodiment. The embodiment that is claimed may specify a further limitation of the subject matter claimed. 
     The subject matter of embodiments of the invention is described with specificity herein to meet statutory requirements. However, the description itself is not intended to limit the scope of this patent. Rather, the inventors have contemplated that the claimed subject matter might also be embodied in other ways, to include different steps or combinations of steps similar to the ones described in this document, in conjunction with other present or future technologies. Moreover, although the terms “step” and/or “block” may be used herein to connote different elements of methods employed, the terms should not be interpreted as implying any particular order among or between various steps herein disclosed unless and except when the order of individual steps is explicitly described. 
     For purposes of this disclosure, the word “including” has the same broad meaning as the word “comprising,” and the word “accessing” comprises “receiving,” “referencing,” or “retrieving.” Further the word “communicating” has the same broad meaning as the word “receiving,” or “transmitting” facilitated by software or hardware-based buses, receivers, or transmitters using communication media described herein. In addition, words such as “a” and “an,” unless otherwise indicated to the contrary, include the plural as well as the singular. Thus, for example, the constraint of “a feature” is satisfied where one or more features are present. Also, the term “or” includes the conjunctive, the disjunctive, and both (a or b thus includes either a or b, as well as a and b). 
     For purposes of a detailed discussion above, embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to a distributed computing environment; however the distributed computing environment depicted herein is merely exemplary. Components can be configured for performing novel aspects of embodiments, where the term “configured for” can refer to “programmed to” perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types using code.
