    Abstract: Systems and methods for local augmented reality (AR) tracking of an AR object are disclosed. In one example embodiment a device captures a series of video image frames. A user input is received at the device associating a first portion of a first image of the video image frames with an AR sticker object and a target. A first target template is generated to track the target across frames of the video image frames. In some embodiments, global tracking based on a determination that the target is outside a boundary area is used. The global tracking comprises using a global tracking template for tracking movement in the video image frames captured following the determination that the target is outside the boundary area. When the global tracking determines that the target is within the boundary area, local tracking is resumed along with presentation of the AR sticker object on an output display of the device.

    Abstract: A computer-implement method comprises: training a classifier with labeled data from a dataset; classifying, by the trained classifier, unlabeled data from the dataset; providing, by the classifier to a policy gradient, a reward signal for each data/query pair; transferring, by the classifier to a ranker, learning; training, by the policy gradient, the ranker; ranking data from the dataset based on a query; and retrieving data from the ranked data in response to the query.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for capturing multiple sequences of views of a three-dimensional object using a plurality of virtual cameras. The systems and methods generate aligned sequences from the multiple sequences based on an arrangement of the plurality of virtual cameras in relation to the three-dimensional object. Using a convolutional network, the systems and methods classify the three-dimensional object based on the aligned sequences and identify the three-dimensional object using the classification.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, media, and instructions for automated image processing and content curation are described. In one embodiment a server computer system receives a content message from a first content source, and analyzes the content message to determine one or more quality scores and one or more content values associated with the content message. The server computer system analyzes the content message with a plurality of content collections of the database to identify a match between at least one of the one or more content values and a topic associated with at least a first content collection of the one or more content collections and automatically adds the content message to the first content collection based at least in part on the match. In various embodiments, different content values, image processing operations, and content selection operations are used to curate content collections.

    Abstract: A compact neural network system can generate multiple individual filters from a compound filter. Each convolutional layer of a convolutional neural network can include a compound filters used to generate individual filters for that layer. The individual filters overlap in the compound filter and can be extracted using a sampling operation. The extracted individual filters can share weights with nearby filters thereby reducing the overall size of the convolutional neural network.
