    摘要: Systems and methods are described for image advertising. In one implementation, an image owner registers an image-bearing medium, such as a website, device, email account, messenger account, printing service, etc., including proprietary images, with a service. The service may connect with the image-bearing medium, for example, by using a crawler to find and analyze images and surrounding text on the website or other image-bearing medium. Then a relevancy engine automatically matches each candidate image with one or more relevant advertisements, based on criteria such as visual image content, surrounding text, and textual/thematic description of the image from an automatic content analysis. The matched advertisements are displayed within or near the associated image, whenever the image is displayed or accessed, e.g., on the Internet. The advertisement owner may pay the image owner a monetary compensation, which in one implementation depends on the number of viewers who access the image. The systems and methods may be applied wherever images are displayed, copied, or transferred.

    摘要: Systems and methods for automatically inserting advertisements into source video content playback streams are described. In one aspect, the systems and methods communicate a source video content playback stream to a video player to present source video to a user. During playback of the source video, and in response to receipt of a request from the user to navigate portions of the source video (e.g., a user command to fast forward the source video, rewind the source video, or other action), the systems and methods dynamically define a video advertisement clip insertion point (e.g., and insertion point based on a current playback position). The systems and methods then insert a contextually relevant and/or targeted video advertisement clip into the playback stream for presentation to the user.

    摘要: Attractiveness of an image may be estimated by integrating extracted visual features with contextual cues pertaining to the image. Image attractiveness may be defined by the visual features (e.g., perceptual quality, aesthetic sensitivity, and/or affective tone) of elements contained within the image. Images may be indexed based on the estimated attractiveness, search results may be presented based on image attractiveness, and/or a user may elect, after receiving image search results, to re-rank the image search results by attractiveness.

    摘要: Visual concepts contained within a video clip are classified based upon a set of target concepts. The clip is segmented into shots and a multi-layer multi-instance (MLMI) structured metadata representation of each shot is constructed. A set of pre-generated trained models of the target concepts is validated using a set of training shots. An MLMI kernel is recursively generated which models the MLMI structured metadata representation of each shot by comparing prescribed pairs of shots. The MLMI kernel is subsequently utilized to generate a learned objective decision function which learns a classifier for determining if a particular shot (that is not in the set of training shots) contains instances of the target concepts. A regularization framework can also be utilized in conjunction with the MLMI kernel to generate modified learned objective decision functions. The regularization framework introduces explicit constraints which serve to maximize the precision of the classifier.

    摘要: Techniques for recommending music and advertising to enhance a user's experience while photo browsing are described. In some instances, songs and ads are ranked for relevance to at least one photo from a photo album. The songs, ads and photo(s) from the photo album are then mapped to a style and mood ontology to obtain vector-based representations. The vector-based representations can include real valued terms, each term associated with a human condition defined by the ontology. A re-ranking process generates a relevancy term for each song and each ad indicating relevancy to the photo album. The relevancy terms can be calculated by summing weighted terms from the ranking and the mapping. Recommended music and ads may then be provided to a user, as the user browses a series of photos obtained from the photo album. The ads may be seamlessly embedded into the music in a nonintrusive manner.

    摘要: A hybrid search method may be used to identify information responsive to a query. A search may be performed utilizing a neighborhood graph and a partitioning tree. The partitioning tree may be searched to select one or more pivots that may be used to guide a subsequent search in the neighborhood graph. Once the search in the neighborhood graph is unable to identify nearest neighbors in closer proximity to the query, the search may be switched to the partitioning tree. The partitioning tree may then be searched to select pivots that may be used to guide subsequent searches in the neighborhood graph. The searches performed in the partitioning tree and/or the neighborhood graph may be conducted utilizing an iterative algorithm.

    摘要: Video advertising overlay technique embodiments are presented that generally detect a set of spatio-temporal nonintrusive positions within a series of consecutive video frames in shots of a digital video and then overlay contextually relevant ads on these positions. In one general embodiment, this is accomplished by decomposing the video into a series of shots, and then identifying a video advertisement for each of a selected set of the shots. The identified video advertisement is one that is determined to be the most relevant to the content of the shot. An overlay area is also identified in each of the shots, where the selected overlay area is the least intrusive among a plurality of prescribed areas to a viewer of the video. The video advertisements identified for the shots are then respectively scheduled to be overlaid in the identified overlay area of a shot, whenever the shot is played.

    摘要: Systems and methods for template-based multimedia authoring and sharing are described. In one aspect, media content is selectively applied to a content description template to author media in a content description. The content description template provides a temporal structure for the applied media content. A content representation template is selected and combined with the temporally structured media in the content description to specify rendering criteria and generate a content description and representation for one or more of rendering, sharing, and exporting the temporally structured authored media.
