Abstract:
Some embodiments include a method of operating a computing device to learn user preferences of how to process digital images. The computing device can record a user image selection, associated with a user account, of at least one of digital image versions of a base digital image. The computing device can determine a context attribute to associate with the user image selection. The computing device can compute an image processing rule associated with the user account by applying machine learning or statistical analysis on multiple user image selections associated with the context attribute, the multiple user image selections including the user image selection.
Abstract:
Some embodiments include a method of operating a computing device to learn user preferences of how to process digital images. The method can include: aggregating a user image selection and a context attribute associated therewith into a preference training database for a user, wherein the user image selection represents a record of the user's preference over at least one of adjusted versions of a base image when the adjusted versions are separately processed by different visual effects; determining a visual effect preference associated based on machine learning or statistical analysis of user image selections in the preference training database, the user image selections representing experimental records corresponding to the visual effects; updating a photo preference profile with the visual effect preference; and providing the photo preference profile to an image processor to adjust subsequently captured photographs provided to the image processor.

Abstract:
A portable electronic device has a display, a device positioning module, and a wireless communication module. Using a first application, the device: determines whether predetermined locator timing criteria are satisfied; if the predetermined locator timing criteria are satisfied, searches for wireless signals transmitted from wireless signaling devices; if wireless signals, transmitted from the wireless signaling devices, are identified from the searching, determines whether the identified wireless signals satisfy predetermined locator wireless signal criteria. If the identified wireless signals satisfy the predetermined locator wireless signal criteria, the device identifies an identifier of a respective wireless signaling device of the wireless signaling devices; identifies a geographic location of the portable electronic device; and sends to a remote server system the identifier of the respective wireless signaling device and the geographic location of the portable electronic device.
