• Abstract: Advanced video technologies are driving the development of the futuristic Metaverse, which aims to connect users from anywhere and anytime. As such, the use cases for users will be much more diverse, leading to a mix of 360-degree videos with two types: non-VR and VR 360-degree videos. This paper presents a novel Quality of Service model for heterogeneous 360-degree videos with different requirements for frame rates and cybersickness. We propose a frame-slotted structure and conduct frame-wise optimization using self-designed differentiated deep reinforcement learning algorithms. Specifically, we design two structures, Separate Input Differentiated Output (SIDO) and Merged Input Differentiated Output (MIDO), for this heterogeneous scenario. We also conduct comprehensive experiments to demonstrate their effectiveness.

  360deg videos offer a more complete perspective of our surroundings. Existing video models excel at producing standard videos, but their ability to generate full panoramic videos remains elusive. We develop a high-quality data filtering pipeline to curate pairwise training data and improve the quality of 360deg video generation. Experimental results demonstrate that our model can generate realistic and coherent 360deg videos from in-the-wild perspective video.
