Me specifically or in general?
Anyway, for a Multimedia Information Retrieval course I chose to do my term project on training a neural network with synthetic data. In particular I modded Minecraft such that when I press a button it saves two screenshots: one regular and one where the game renders a depth map instead. I used this to generate ~1000 samples with perfectly accurate depth maps. Because of the mods, texture pack and world I used the data was somewhat realistic: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Zai51.jpghttps://i.stack.imgur.com/eamMR.png
This data was then used to train a neural network to predict the depth map of unseen images. It was relatively successful, but requires more data and more research, I only had so much time for a term paper.
