Abstract: A system and method for modifying images has an ability to assign color intensity values to pixels exposed during image manipulation operations. The system and method for modifying images comprises means for using the color intensity values of remaining pixels in the original image, and for assigning color values to the exposed pixels that are similar to those of the surrounding pixels so that the exposed regions blends smoothly with the surrounding region. The means for assigning color values assigns the value of color intensity based on the color intensity value function determined at a location of a pixel. The color intensity value function used to assign values to exposed pixels is determined by fitting a function to the known color intensity values of pixels in the boundary regions of the exposed surrounding pixels. The color intensity value function is approximated using energy minimization along with boundary conditions.

Abstract: Searching online catalog databases by shoppers is improved by performing similarity searching on searches performed by the shopper, in conjunction with adjusting the similarity metric used during the search to interactively improve the relevance of the resulting search results to the shopper. This involves using relevance feedback and/or product redefinition to learn the “implied concept” of the shopper's stated product requirements; that is, the quality of the search results is enhanced through understanding the concept implied by the shopper's queries by, for example, learning from the product results marked as “relevant” or “irrelevant” by the shopper. This approach is in contrast with attempts to enhance search results using, for example, the shopper's past orders or previous actions, or the past orders or previous actions of other shoppers who may have a purchase history similar to that of the current shopper.

Abstract translation: 通过对购物者执行的搜索执行相似性搜索，结合调整搜索期间使用的相似性度量来交互地提高所得到的搜索结果与购物者的相关性，从而改善了购物者对在线目录数据库的搜索。 这涉及使用相关性反馈和/或产品重新定义来了解购物者声明的产品要求的“隐含概念”; 也就是说，通过了解购物者查询所隐含的概念，例如从购物者标识为“相关”或“无关”的产品结果中学习，可以提高搜索结果的质量。 这种方法与使用例如购物者的过去订单或先前操作或其他可能具有与当前购物者的购买历史相似的购买历史的其他购物者的过去订单或之前的动作来增强搜索结果形成对比。

Abstract: A user at a client machine can customize components of a database search performed at a server. The user does this by sending executable code to the database server. Software code runs as middleware on the database server machine to communicate between the database server and the client and performs the functions of supplying the client with vital information required for generating code which will be used for customizing various processes of the database retrieval session. Typically, the server comprises a set of database servers and the middleware runs on each database server machine to communicate between the database servers and the client. The middleware provides a virtual machine on which the user-supplied code written in a virtual machine language is executed, giving a uniform interface across the set of database servers on which the same user-supplied code will be executed ensuring that the user-supplied code executes under database server specified access privileges.

Abstract: A methodology of highly interactive intra-object relevance feedback is used to retrieve multimedia data from a database. The query object could consist of one or more images, images derived from video, a video sequence, or an audio clip. The query is adjusted using the information fed-back by the user about the relevance of previously extracted part(s) from the object itself, such that the adjusted query is a better approximation to the user's perception. The information fed-back by the user during intra-query modification is used for intra-object learning of the user's perception. The refined query is subsequently used for inter-object relevance feedback where data is retrieved from the database based on parameters learnt by intra-query object feedback mechanism, and the user provides feedback by ranking the retrieved objects in order of their relevance to him or her. In the system according to the invention, inter-object learning of user's perception is expedited by utilizing the learnt parameters in the intra-object relevance feedback. Furthermore, the methodology of the invention allows for building refined queries based on part(s) or sub-sequence(s) of the query object rather than the entire object itself, thereby reducing the number of irrelevant objects, retrieved from the database. The methodology allows synthesis and modification of the input query object itself in the event a query object is not directly available, and, also to learn the user's perception.
