    Abstract: Systems and methods herein describe generating a shared list of media elements. The system detects a selection of an application icon within a chat interface and generates an application interface. The application interface comprises a media library. The system initiates a first user time limit and detects a selection of a media element from the media library. The system adds the media element to a shared list of media elements. Upon expiration of the first user time limit, the system initiates a second user time limit and detects a selection of a second media element from the media library. The system adds the second media element to the shared list of media elements. Upon expiration of the second user time limit, the system stores the shared list of media elements.

    Abstract: A system includes a communication module that receives a request to post content to an event gallery associated with an event. The request in turn includes geo-location data for a device sending the content, and identification data identifying the device or a user of the device. The system further has an event gallery module to perform a first authorization operation that includes determining that the geo-location data corresponds to a geo-location fence associated with an event. The event gallery module also performs a second authorization operation that includes using the identification data to verify an attribute of the user. Finally, based on the first and second authorization operations, the event gallery module may selectively authorize the device to post the content to the event gallery.

    Abstract: A method for AR-guided depth estimation is described. The method includes identifying a virtual object rendered in a first frame that is generated based on a first pose of an augmented reality (AR) device, determining a second pose of the AR device, the second pose following the first pose, identifying an augmentation area in the second frame based on the virtual object rendered in the first frame, and the second pose, determining depth information for the augmentation area in the second frame, and rendering the virtual object in the second frame based on the depth information.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for projecting each of a chronology of images as a sequence of images using a shifting element as part of a near-eye display system are provided for use in virtual reality, augmented reality, or mixed reality systems. In some example embodiments, a chronology of images is received by a peripheral sequencing system. The system divides each image into image portions and generates sequences of image portions to recreate the images based on arrangement data. The system then causes a high-speed display of each sequence of images such that they appear simultaneous to a viewer. In some embodiments, the projection is transmitted to a shifting optical element such as a rotating micromirror that propagates a display to a user. In some embodiments, the system further detects and corrects for image and environmental distortions.

    Abstract: System and methods for compressing image-to-image models. Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have achieved success in generating high-fidelity images. An image compression system and method adds a novel variant to class-dependent parameters (CLADE), referred to as CLADE-Avg, which recovers the image quality without introducing extra computational cost. An extra layer of average smoothing is performed between the parameter and normalization layers. Compared to CLADE, this image compression system and method smooths abrupt boundaries, and introduces more possible values for the scaling and shift. In addition, the kernel size for the average smoothing can be selected as a hyperparameter, such as a 3×3 kernel size. This method does not introduce extra multiplications but only addition, and thus does not introduce much computational overhead, as the division can be absorbed into the parameters after training.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for performing operations for transferring garments in a video from one real-world object to another in real time. The operations comprise receiving a first video that includes a depiction of a first person wearing a first garment in a first pose and obtaining a second video that includes a depiction of a second person wearing a second garment in a second pose. The operations comprise modifying a pose of the second person to match the first pose of the first person depicted in the first video. The operations comprise generating a whole-body segmentation of the second garment which the second person is wearing in the second video and changing an appearance of the first person from wearing the first garment to wearing the second garment based on the whole-body segmentation of the second garment which the second person is wearing in the second video.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering three-dimensional (3D) scenes having improved visual characteristics from a pair of 2D images having different viewpoints. The 3D scene is created by obtaining a first two-dimensional (2D) image of a scene object from a first viewpoint, obtaining a second 2D image of the scene object from a second viewpoint that is different than the first viewpoint, creating a depth map from the first and second 2D images, creating a 3D scene from the depth map and the first and second 2D images, detecting regions of the initial 3D scene with incomplete image information, reconstructing the detected regions of the 3D scene, determining replacement information and modify the reconstructed regions, and rendering the 3D scene with the modified reconstructed regions from a plurality of viewpoints.

    Abstract: The technical problem of adding content that originates from a third party application to an augmented reality component maintained by a messaging server system is addressed by configuring the augmented reality component to modify content captured by a camera according to values of one or more attributes and by permitting delivery of the values, from the third party application to the messaging server system, in the payload of a deep link that references the identification of the augmented reality component.
