Abstract:
A method for controlling a display apparatus being used in conjunction with a tiled display system is provided. The method for controlling a display apparatus includes receiving contents from a host device, and when a reproduction preparation of the received contents has been completed, transmitting a completion message to the host device, and if a command to reproduce the contents is received from the host device, reproducing the contents based on sync information received from the host device.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a server apparatus. The server apparatus comprises: a communication unit for receiving, from an external server, multiple first viewing log data for each of a plurality of first users using a first broadcast receiving apparatus and multiple user information of each of the plurality of first users; and a processor for updating a predictive model for predicting, from the viewing log data, the number of users using the broadcast receiving apparatus and user information of each of the users, on the basis of the received multiple first viewing log data and the received multiple user information, wherein, when second viewing log data is received from a second broadcast receiving apparatus through the communication unit, the processor predicts, using the updated predictive model, the number of users using the second broadcast receiving apparatus and user information of each of the users.
Abstract:
An electronic device comprises: a communicator for receiving population distribution data for at least one item among gender, age, and income from an external server and receiving user information composed of a plurality of items from each of a plurality of other electronic devices; and a processor for predicting unknown information by using a predictive model in which the unknown information is predicted by using a pre-stored variable parameter, for user information having the unknown information on a preset item in the received user information, generating population distribution data for the preset item by using the received user information and the predicted unknown information, comparing the generated population distribution data with the received population distribution data so as to calculate an error of the generated population distribution data, and changing the parameter of the predictive model on the basis of the calculated error so as to modify the predictive model.
Abstract:
A method and system for generating animated art effects while viewing static images, where the appearance of effects depends upon on the content of an image and parameters of accompanying sound is provided. The method of generating animated art effects on static images, based on the static image and accompanying sound feature analysis, includes storing an original static image; detecting areas of interest on the original static image and computing features of the areas of interest; creating visual objects of art effects according to the features detected in the areas of interest; detecting features of an accompanying sound; modifying parameters of visual objects in accordance with the features of the accompanying sound; and generating a frame of an animation including the original static image with superimposed visual objects of art effects.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus of presenting a collection of images in the form of a collage is provided. The method dynamically visualizes the collection of images in the form of a collage. The method includes receiving the image from the collection of the images; adjusting parameters of dynamic visualization; analyzing distribution of colors in local areas of the images and the collage; modifying the image by adding the decorative elements of which the appearance depends on the distribution of colors in the local areas of the images and the local areas of the collage; modifying the collage by changing an appearance of decorative elements in the image; determining a position of the modified image on the modified collage; and generating a sequence of frames showing an occurrence of the modified image in the collage.
