摘要:
Systems and methods for providing next generation television with content shifting and interactive selectability are described. In some examples, image content may be transferred from a television to smaller mobile computing device, and an example-based. visual search may be conducted on a selected portion of the content. Search results may then be provided to the mobile computing, device. In addition, avatar simulation may be undertaken.
摘要:
An apparatus, a method and a system are provided, wherein the system includes an encoding engine to encode and/or compress one or more objects of interest within individual image frames with higher bit densities than the bit density employed to encode and/or compress their background. The system may further include a context engine to identify a region of interest including at least a part of the one or more objects of interest, and scale the region of interest within individual image frames to emphasize the objects of interest.

Methods, apparatuses, and articles associated with face recognition login, social network and video chat are disclosed herein. In various embodiments, an apparatus may include a networking interface, and a face recognition based controller configured to determine whether a user is watching a television, based on image frames of a video signal generated by a camera. The controller may be further configured to transmit a login request, via the network interface, to a server associated with a social network, on determination that the user is watching the television, to log the user into the social network, and enabling video chat. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

Methods, apparatuses, and articles associated with facial tracking and recognition are disclosed. In embodiments, facial images may be detected in video or still images and tracked. After normalization of the facial images, feature data may be extracted from selected regions of the faces to compare to associated feature data in known faces. The selected regions may be determined using a boosting machine learning processes over a set of known images. After extraction, individual two-class comparisons may be performed between corresponding feature data from regions on the tested facial images and from the known facial image. The individual two-class classifications may then be combined to determine a similarity score for the tested face and the known face. If the similarity score exceeds a threshold, an identification of the known face may be output or otherwise used. Additionally, tracking with voting may be performed on faces detected in video. After a threshold of votes is reached, a given tracked face may be associated with a known face.
摘要:
Detection of a facial attribute such as a smile or gender in a human face in an image is performed by embodiments of the present invention in a computationally efficient manner. First, a face in the image is detected to produce a facial image. Facial landmarks are detected in the facial image. The facial image is aligned and normalized based on the detected facial landmarks to produce a normalized facial image. Local features from selected local regions are extracted from the normalized facial image. A facial attribute is predicted in each selected local region by inputting each selected local feature into a weak classifier having a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) structure. Finally, output data is aggregated from each weak classifier component to generate all indication that the facial attribute is detected in the facial image.

A system and method for selecting an advertisement to present to a consumer includes detecting facial regions in the image, identifying one or more consumer characteristics (mood, gender, age, etc.) of said consumer in the image, identifying one or more advertisements to present to the consumer based on a comparison of the consumer characteristics with an advertisement database including a plurality of advertisement profiles, and presenting a selected one of the identified advertisement to the consumer on a media device.
摘要:
Detecting facial landmarks in a face detected in an image may be performed by first cropping a face rectangle region of the detected face in the image and generating an integral image based at least in part on the face rectangle region. Next, a cascade classifier may be executed for each facial landmark of the face rectangle region to produce one response image for each facial landmark based at least in part on the integral image. A plurality of Active Shape Model (ASM) initializations may be set up. ASM searching may be performed for each of the ASM initializations based at least in part on the response images, each ASM search resulting in a search result having a cost. Finally, a search result of the ASM searches having a lowest cost function may be selected, the selected search result indicating locations of the facial landmarks in the image.
