    摘要: The speech synthesizer is personalized to sound like or mimic the speech characteristics of an individual speaker. The individual speaker provides a quantity of enrollment data, which can be extracted from a short quantity of speech, and the system modifies the base synthesis parameters to more closely resemble those of the new speaker. More specifically, the synthesis parameters may be decomposed into speaker dependent parameters, such as context-independent parameters, and speaker independent parameters, such as context dependent parameters. The speaker dependent parameters are adapted using enrollment data from the new speaker. After adaptation, the speaker dependent parameters are combined with the speaker independent parameters to provide a set of personalized synthesis parameters. To adapt the parameters with a small amount of enrollment data, an eigenspace is constructed and used to constrain the position of the new speaker so that context independent parameters not provided by the new speaker may be estimated.

    摘要: An instance-level retrieval method and system are provided. A representation of a query image is embedded in a multi-dimensional space using a learned projection. The projection is learned using category-labeled training data to optimize a classification rate on the training data. The joint learning of the projection and the classifiers improves the computation of similarity/distance between images by embedding them in a subspace where the similarity computation outputs more accurate results. An input query image can thus be used to retrieve similar instances in a database by computing the comparison measure in the embedding space.

    摘要: An input image representation is generated based on an aggregation of local descriptors extracted from an input image, and is adjusted by performing a power normalization, an Lp normalization such as an L2 normalization, or both. In some embodiments the generating comprises modeling the extracted local descriptors using a probabilistic model to generate the input image representation comprising probabilistic model component values for a set of probabilistic model components. In some such embodiments the probabilistic model comprises a Gaussian mixture model and the probabilistic model components comprise Gaussian components of the Gaussian mixture model. The generating may include partitioning the input image into a plurality of image partitions using a spatial pyramids partitioning model, extracting local descriptors, such as Fisher vectors, from the image partitions, and concatenating the local descriptors extracted from the image partitions.

    摘要: A method and system to help photographers to take better quality pictures of landmarks and scenes are disclosed. A user is guided with examples of existing quality images, which are extracted from a database, of the same or similar landmarks or scenes. The method includes taking a query photograph that may include an image associated with a GPS location and other metadata, and using information extracted from the image to retrieve existing, similar images. The images retrieved may be ordered according to different criteria. When a user selects one as a model image, the user is provided with assistance for taking a target photograph of similar quality.

    摘要: A system and method for comparing a query object and one or more of a set of database objects are provided. The method includes providing quantized representations of database objects. The database objects have each been transformed with a quantized embedding function which is the composition of a real-valued embedding function and a quantization function. The query object is transformed to a representation of the query object in a real-valued embedding space using the real-valued embedding function. Query-dependent estimated distance values are computed for the query object, based on the transformed query object and stored. A comparison (e.g., distance or similarity) measure between the query object and each of the quantized database object representations is computed based on the stored query-dependent estimated distance values. Data is output based on the comparison computation.
