摘要:
A computer may identify an individual according to one or more biometrics based on various physiological aspects of the individual, such as metrics of various features of the face, gait, fingerprint, or voice of the individual. However, biometrics are often computationally intensive to compute, inaccurate, and unable to scale to identify an individual among a large set of known individuals. Therefore, the biometric identification of an individual may be supplemented by identifying one or more devices associated with the individual (e.g., a mobile phone, a vehicle driven by the individual, or an implanted medical device). When an individual is registered for identification, various device identifiers of devices associated with the individual may be stored along with the biometrics of the individual. Individuals may then be identified using both biometrics and detected device identifiers, thereby improving the efficiency, speed, accuracy, and scalability of the identification.

A system may recognize faces within an image by using wireless identifiers captured at the time the image was taken to determine a list of candidates for facial recognition. A database may contain people associated with one or more wireless identifiers, which may be identifiers associated with various protocols, such as Bluetooth, cellular telephones, WiFi, or other protocols. In some cases, the list of candidates may be expanded by using candidate's social networks. The recognized faces may be tagged in the image as metadata, then used in various scenarios. In one scenario, an album of images from an event may be created by matching people who were tagged in images. In another scenario, people may exchange business contact information or social network contacts by taking images of each other.

Systems and methods are described herein for finding and sharing digital images of a user, such as digital photographs of the user, that are located in collections of digital images belonging to others. In accordance with at least one implementation, a face model of a first user is built using a first user computer, wherein the face model is built based on digital images of the first user stored on or accessible to the first user computer. The face model of the first user is then made accessible to a second user computer for use by the second user computer in finding digital images of the first user stored on or accessible to the second user computer. The digital images found by the second user computer are then made accessible to the first user computer.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for training a Support Vector Machine (SVM) on a subset of features (d′) of a feature set having (d) features of a plurality of training instances to obtain a weight per instance, approximating a quality for the d features of the feature set using the weight per instance, ranking the d features of the feature set based on the approximated quality, and selecting a subset (q) of the features of the feature set based on the ranked approximated quality. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
A receiver estimates a channel parameter from a received signal. The channel parameter may a DC signal level, a carrier to interference ratio, a noise spectrum, or the like. The receiver performs channel equalization and produces estimated symbols. The estimated symbols are remodulated and the channel parameter is re-estimated. An initial estimation error is calculated as the difference between the two estimates. The estimated symbols are weighted using the initial estimation error, and channel decoding is performed. Estimated symbol weights may be reduced when the initial estimation error is above a threshold, and may be increased when the initial estimation error is below a threshold.

Briefly, a method an apparatus and a wireless communication device are provided. The wireless communication device includes a receiver to receive complex sequences of symbols. The receiver includes an estimator to estimate one or more channel taps. The estimator includes a memory to store at least a portion of one or more calculated values of an estimation matrix and is capable to estimate the one or more channel taps based on a stored portion of calculated values of the estimation matrix.
摘要:
A user's collection of images may be analyzed to identify people's faces within the images, then create clusters of similar faces, where each of the clusters may represent a person. The clusters may be ranked in order of size to determine a relative importance of the associated person to the user. The ranking may be used in many social networking applications to filter and present content that may be of interest to the user. In one use scenario, the clusters may be used to identify images from a second user's image collection, where the identified images may be pertinent or interesting to the first user. The ranking may also be a function of user interactions with the images, as well as other input not related to the images. The ranking may be incrementally updated when new images are added to the user's collection.

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for search query extension are disclosed. A particular method retrieves a set of queries related to a search query from a query repository. The search query includes one or more search words and at least one search word is included in each query in the set of queries. A set of context words based on one or more computer-readable files accessible to a computer is generated and an intersection is calculated. The intersection is based on the set of queries and the set of context words. An extended search query is generated based on the calculated intersection and the search query.
