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 determine the location of a microphone with an unknown location, given the location of a number of other microphones by determining a difference in an arrival time between a first audio signal generated by and microphone with a known location and a second audio signal generated by another microphone with an unknown location, wherein the first and second audio signals are a representation of a substantially same sound emitted from an acoustic source with a known location; determining, based on at least the determined difference in arrival time, a distance between the acoustic source with the known location and the microphone with the unknown location; and determining, based on the determined distance between the acoustic source with the known location and the microphone with the unknown location, the location of the unknown microphone.

摘要： A method of classifying images as slide images or non-slide images can be done by capturing a video stream, analyzing an image of the video stream and determining whether the image is a slide image. The analyzing can be based on text height and/or edge region(s) of the image.

摘要： Provides a system for detecting an intersection between more than one panoramic video sequence and detecting the orientation of the sequences forming the intersection. Video images and corresponding location data are received. If required, the images and location data is processed to ensure the images contain location data. An intersection between two paths is then derived from the video images by deriving a rough intersection between two images, determining a neighborhood for the two images, and dividing each image in the neighborhood into strips. An identifying value is derived from each strip to create a row of strip values which are then converted to the frequency domain. A distance measure is taken between strips in the frequency domain, and the intersection is determined from the images having the smallest distance measure between them. The orientation between the two paths may also be determined in the frequency domain by using the phases of signals representing the images in the Fourier domain or performing a circular cross correlation of two vectors representing the images.
