    摘要: A regular mesh of rectangular cells (76) of uniform size is defined. The regular mesh is aligned with a non-rectangular layout boundary (18) such that a count of ones of the cells (76) having at least a prescribed fraction of their size contained within the layout boundary (18) is maximized. A layout (34) of frames (36) within the layout boundary (18) is determined based on the locations of the cells (76) with respect to the layout boundary (18), wherein the frames (36) define respective size dimensions and positions of respective views (47) of graphic objects (12) on a page (38). The views (47) of the graphic objects (12) arranged in accordance with the layout (34) of the frames (36) are outputted on the page (38).

    摘要: A mobile device can receive OCR library information associated with a coarse position. The coarse position can be determined by the mobile device, or by a network server configured to communicate with the mobile device. A camera on the mobile device can obtain images of human-readable information in an area near the coarse position. The view finder image can be processed with an OCR engine that is utilizing the OCR library information to determine one or more location string values. A location database can be searched based on the location string values. The position of the mobile device can be estimated and displayed. The position estimated can be adjusted based on the proximity of the mobile device to other features in the image.

    摘要: A method for auto-resizing an original digital image from an original image to a resized image. The method comprises separating the foreground elements from the background elements, determining an original aspect ratio of the foreground elements and creating resized foreground elements by scaling the foreground elements while maintaining the original aspect ratio. The method further comprises creating resized background elements by stretching or shrinking the background elements to fit the dimensions of the resized image and repositioning the resized foreground and background elements on the resized image while maintaining the design intention of the original image.

    摘要: Apparatuses, methods, systems and computer-readable media for using visibility maps of identified points of interest (POIs) to determine a user's location are presented. Users may determine their locations without relying on a global positioning technique, such as GPS or A-GPS. A user may instead rely on POIs identifiable from the user's visual field of view, and determine position based on the common area visible to each identified POI.

    摘要: Person detection and tracking techniques may be used to estimate pedestrian traffic in locations equipped with cameras. Persons detected in video data from the cameras may help determine existing pedestrian traffic data. Future pedestrian traffic estimation may be performed to estimate pedestrian traffic characteristics (such as volume, direction, etc.) Such traffic estimation may be provided to users for route planning/congestion information. A traffic map can be derived based on the number of people at or expected to be at certain locations. The map may be provided to users to provide traffic data and/or estimations.
