    摘要: Example methods, apparatuses, or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, to facilitate or support one or more operations or techniques for logo detection for indoor positioning for use in or with a mobile device. Briefly, in accordance with one implementation, a method may include extracting, at a mobile device, visual features from one or more images captured via a camera sensor of the mobile device; and estimating a location of the mobile device based, at least in part, on a match between extracted visual features and one or more brand-specific visual signatures associated with one or more points of interest of one or more known locations. In some instances, an estimated location of a mobile device may be refined based, at least in part, on at least one additional POI of one or more POIs of one or more known locations.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate providing an object-based transport protocol that allows transmission of arbitrarily sized objects over a network protocol layer. The object-based transport protocol can also provide association of metadata with the objects to control communication thereof, and/or communication of response objects. Moreover, the object-based transport protocol can maintain sessions with remote network nodes that can include multiple channels, which can be updated over time to seamlessly provide mobility, increased data rates, and/or the like. In addition, properties can be modified remotely by network nodes receiving objects related to the properties.

    摘要: Methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer-readable media for providing sensation enhanced messaging are presented. According to one or more aspects, a computing device may receive an electronic message, and the electronic message may include sender-specified haptic data that identifies at least one non-vibratory haptic sensation to be provided to a recipient of the electronic message. Subsequently, the computing device may cause haptic feedback to be provided to a user based on the sender-specified haptic data. In at least one arrangement, the at least one non-vibratory haptic sensation may include one or more pressure characteristics, texture characteristics, wetness characteristics, adhesion characteristics, thermal characteristics, and/or movement characteristics.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are provided that may be implemented in a mobile device to determine two or more variations between a baseline probability distribution and two or more probability distributions for signals received from two or more sets of transmitters assigned to two or more regions of a structure. The methods and apparatuses may be further implemented to determine whether the mobile device is located in at least one of the two or more regions based, at least in part, on a comparison of the two or more determined variations.

    摘要: The subject matter disclosed herein relates to systems, methods, apparatuses, devices, articles, and means for updating radio models. For certain example implementations, a method for one or more server devices may comprise receiving at one or more communication interfaces at least one measurement that corresponds to a position of a first mobile device within an indoor environment. At least one radio model that is stored in one or more memories may be updated based, at least in part, on the at least one measurement to produce at least one updated radio model. The at least one radio model and the at least one updated radio model may correspond to the indoor environment. The at least one updated radio model may be transmitted to enable a second mobile device to use the at least one updated radio model for positioning within the indoor environment. Other example implementations are described herein.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for enhanced overlay state maintenance in a peer-to-peer overlay network. A first method includes inferring that a first node is leaving the overlay network, and transmitting a decrement message to decrement a size counter value. A second method includes identifying a set of nodes associated with a first node of an overlay network, obtaining a segment length associated with each node of the set of nodes, and determining a size of the overlay network by dividing the total number of nodes in the set of nodes by the sum of the segment lengths. A third method includes identifying a set of nodes associated with a first node of an overlay network, obtaining a size estimate associated with the first node and with each node of the set of nodes, and determining a size of the overlay network by averaging the size estimates.
