摘要： Systems and methods in accordance with the present invention provide freeform annotation techniques designed to make freeform annotations on a digital document more flexible, reliable and presentable on a screen of a computing device. They allow users to markup the document, add comments, and link between annotations, while maintaining the freeform nature of these annotations without constraining the kinds of annotations allowed. These freeform annotations are then unequivocally recognized via a state machine into three groups of annotation marks: anchor, comment, and link, each of which is associated with either part of the digital document or with another annotation mark. In addition, these annotation marks can be repositioned and resized to fit within the display area available on the screen based on the display properties of the screen, thus supporting the natural flow of annotating the document in a freeform manner. This description is not intended to be a complete description of, or limit the scope of, the invention. Other features, aspects, and objects of the invention can be obtained from a review of the specification, the figures, and the claims.

摘要翻译： 根据本发明的系统和方法提供了设计用于使数字文档上的自由形式注释在计算设备的屏幕上更灵活，可靠和可呈现的自由形式注释技术。 它们允许用户在注释之间标记文档，添加注释和链接，同时保持这些注释的自由形式，而不会限制允许的注释种类。 然后，将这些自由形式的注释通过状态机明确地识别为三组注释标记：锚点，注释和链接，每个注释标记与数字文档的任一部分或另一个注释标记相关联。 此外，这些注释标记可以基于屏幕的显示属性重新定位和调整大小以适合屏幕上可用的显示区域，从而以自由形式支持注释文档的自然流动。 本说明书不是对本发明的完整描述或限制本发明的范围。 本发明的其它特征，方面和目的可以通过对说明书，附图和权利要求的评述来获得。

摘要： The present invention includes systems, methods, and computer readable media for locating, sorting, and modifying images for future use. A conversion engine submits search requests to an image search engine and accepts the received results. The conversion engine arranges the search results according to selected visual characteristics of the image. Editing tools can then convert the results of the image search into vector based images which can be easily manipulated and enable users to modify the re-ranked images for future use.

摘要： Blogs (and other information sources) are recommended to a user based history of user's online activities. The system: (1) processes the user's web history, (2) identifies blog posts (and web pages) that link to pages read by the user, (3) generates multiple relevance scores for each identified post/page, and (4) produces multiple rankings of the corresponding source blogs (and web sites) by aggregating individual relevance scores (or combinations of relevance scores), according to users' preferences. The system allows the discovery of information sources that are likely to be interesting to the user and allows sources lost in the “long tail” to be seamlessly discovered.

摘要： Systems and methods for facilitating use of non-electronic whiteboards and other large displays. Images of whiteboard are input to a computer device to provide automatic detection of a collaborative portion of content on the board created during a collaborative session and distribution to relevant collaborators alone while personal content of board is not distributed. Modification history of writings are preserved and displayed as change histograms to assist a user locate content that may have been erased. User finds the content by inspecting regions of board that correspond to user's memory of approximate location and time of modifying the content and are shown on the histogram as having been modified. Persistent reminder notes that clutter board space are detected and stored based on their location on the board and duration of persisting on the board so that they may be erased.

摘要： In embodiments, a user interface provides for manipulating one or more physical devices for use in a conference room setting. The user interface includes a touch screen for presenting a variety of options to a user. The touch screen includes controllers, such as buttons, to enable the user to select any one of the options. Each of the controllers has goals-oriented information, enabling the user to select a goal, while insulating the user from the underlying complex processes required to carry out the goal through the selection of one of the controllers.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention combine the flexibility of the computer in segmenting, indexing, and retrieving data with the strengths of people in analyzing scenes. They provide a mechanism that allows a group of analyzers at distributed locations to collaborate in generating pieces of semantic information of a data stream, integrates these pieces into a summary representation that can be used for subsequent computation, and allows related hypotheses and information requests to be presented back to the analyzers. This description is not intended to be a complete description of, or limit the scope of, the invention. Other features, aspects, and objects of the invention can be obtained from a review of the specification, the figures, and the claims.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention enable an approach to index segments of a media stream containing of visual and textual information, using a combination of visual, textual, auditory and temporal features to combine segments that correspond to topical contexts into logical groups. A visual/temporal/auditory/textual weighting scheme is adopted, which allows segments from elsewhere in the same media stream to affect the index terms associated with the current segment. This description is not intended to be a complete description of, or limit the scope of, the invention. Other features, aspects, and objects of the invention can be obtained from a review of the specification, the figures, and the claims.
