    摘要: One embodiment of the invention includes a method for managing a streaming media service. The method includes receiving a request for a streaming media service from a client and the streaming media service includes a media service component. A service location manager is selected to which to provide the request from a plurality of service location managers. Additionally, a service provider is selected to which to assign the media service component from a plurality of service providers of a network. Furthermore, the service provider is informed of the assignment to perform the media service component. The service provider is caused to prepare to perform the streaming media service on streaming media. Moreover, information is used to determine whether to initiate a handoff of the streaming media service from the service provider to another service provider. If it is determined to initiate the handoff, the handoff is initiated.

    摘要: The invention provides a method and apparatus for detecting a scene transition in digitized video data. The method includes determining if a gradual transition is detected in the video data that ends with a current frame based at least on the current frame and one or more previous frames in the digitized video data. The gradual transition has a length. The method includes comparing the gradual transition to a synthetically produced gradual transition spanning a same length and generated from starting and ending frames associated with the detected gradual transition and marking the detected gradual transition only if the detected gradual transition is sufficiently similar to the synthetically produced gradual transition.

    摘要: Methods and systems for utilizing a parallel conversational thread during a remote collaboration are described. In one embodiment, a managing entity is utilized to establish a first communications path for a remote collaboration of at least two parties. Then, a request for a parallel conversation is received from at least one of the at least two parties during the remote collaboration. The managing entity then establishes a second communications path for the parallel conversation between the at least two parties. Wherein, the enabling of the parallel conversation on the second communications path is performed without inhibiting the first communications path, such that a portion of a first party can have a parallel conversation with a portion of a second party on the second communications path while the first communications path for the remote collaboration remains active.

    摘要: A set of reference videos is indexed to a reference index in order to facilitate matching of video content. An indexing module receives a set of reference fingerprints representing a set of reference videos and identifies keys contained in the reference fingerprints. Reference identifiers for the reference videos are stored in bins of the reference index associated with the identified keys. The bins in the reference index are sub-sampled to limit the number of reference identifiers stored in a given bin.

    摘要: Conditioned data is generated from multi-dimensional data populations. The multi-dimensional data populations include time-based media data, such as video data, or data associated with time-based media. The conditioned data is scaled such that dimensions of greater distinguishability are emphasized. To generate the conditioned data, a data conditioner receives populations of multi-dimensional data that have the same dimensions in the data. Data of a dimension is scaled based on a distinguishability factor calculated for the dimension. The distinguishability factor is calculated based on distributions in the dimension for the data populations. The data conditioning approach is scalable to any number of data populations and any number of data dimensions.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for ranking images are disclosed. An image search subsystem generates an adjustment factor representative of a quality measure of an image relative to a search query. The quality represents a relevance of the image to the query. The adjustment factor can be computed based on relevance data for the image to the query and image similarity data representing a relative similarity between the image and other images relevant to the query. The relevance data can be based on user actions in response to the image being included in search results for the query. The adjustment factor can be scaled based on whether the relevance data and the image similarity data both indicate that the image is relevant to the search query. A relevance score is computed based on the adjustment factor (e.g., a product of the adjustment factor and relevance score).
