Abstract

A device may provide, to user devices, a set of objects that are to be used by the user devices as part of a collaborative virtual environment. The collaborative virtual environment may support a virtual workshop. The set of objects may include objects capable of being used to solve a problem that is presented to users within the virtual workshop. The device may receive data describing a set of solutions. The device may curate the data describing the set of solutions using one or more natural language processing techniques. The device may rank the set of solutions that has been curated using a ranking technique or a machine learning technique. The device may provide data identifying a highest ranked solution or data identifying the set of solutions for display within the virtual workshop or to additional user devices that are accessible outside of the virtual workshop.
