Two documented AI connections were found. (1) Sitzmann et al. adapt existing 2D saliency predictors to 360 panoramas by multiplying with a learned equator bias and propose saliency-based cut alignment (static-panorama data, not reproduced). (2) da Silva et al. (SVR 2024, arXiv 2026, CC BY 4.0) chain Grounding DINO and Segment Anything to find the object named in a text script and apply a vignette to it in a 360 tour; their text shows frames from a university video tour, one SAM failure, and a conclusion that 'user experience' improves, but the extract shows no user study or measurement supporting that claim. No source linking generated 360 scenes to viewer-attention outcomes was found in a bounded search.
