摘要： Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for propagating labels. The method comprises determining a set of labels to be associated with users of a social network, the labels including one or more designators for specifying areas of interest and areas of disinterest for a user. The method further comprises associating nodes in a graph representing the social network, where the users are represented by user nodes in the graph, and determining that a user is similar or dissimilar to another user in the social network. The method further comprises determining weights for the labels, each weight reflecting a magnitude of a contribution of an associated label to a characterization of the respective node, and propagating labels to other nodes that are related to the respective node by a relationship, including propagating labels in accordance with the determined similarity or dissimilarity.

摘要： Videos are received and indexed based on fingerprints generated for the videos, using lookup keys which correspond to sub portions of the reference fingerprints. Specifically, a set of lookup keys is selected such that the number of reference fingerprints such that the clumping associated with the associated each of the lookup keys is minimized. Clumping occurs when a number of reference identifiers associated with a lookup key exceeds a maximum value.

摘要： A method includes receiving search queries. Images are generated that represent the volume of each search query relative to all search queries over a period of time. The images are processed to generate wavelets for each image. Related queries having similar increases or decreases in volume are identified by comparing at least some of the wavelets corresponding to a first query to wavelets corresponding to other queries.

摘要： An exemplar dictionary is built from example image blocks for determining predictor blocks for encoding and decoding images. The exemplar dictionary comprises a hierarchical organization of example image blocks. The hierarchical organization of image blocks is obtained by clustering a set of example image blocks, for example, based on k-means clustering. Performance of clustering is improved by transforming feature vectors representing the image blocks to fewer dimensions. Principal component analysis is used for determining feature vectors with fewer dimensions. The clustering performed at higher levels of the hierarchy uses fewer dimensions of feature vectors compared to lower levels of hierarchy. Performance of clustering is improved by processing only a sample of the image blocks of a cluster. The clustering performed at higher levels of the hierarchy uses lower sampling rates as compared to lower levels of hierarchy.

摘要： Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products provide social and interactive applications for detecting repeating content in broadcast media. In some implementations, a method includes: generating a database of audio statistics from content; generating a query from the database of audio statistics; running the query against the database of audio statistics to determine a non-identity match; if a non-identity match exists, identifying the content corresponding to the matched query as repeating content.

摘要： Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products provide social and interactive applications for mass media based on real time ambient-audio and/or video identification. In some implementations, a method includes: receiving descriptors identifying ambient audio associated with a media broadcast; comparing the descriptors to one or more reference descriptors; and determining a rating for the media broadcast based at least in part on the results of the comparison.
