Abstract:
Systems, methods, devices, and non-transitory computer-readable media for depth-based image tag generation are described. The disclosed technology may access images stored in an image repository. The images may comprise a first image. Using image processing techniques, a first object and a second object in the first image may be detected. Using machine-learning models, a first tag associated with the first object and a second tag associated with the second object may be identified. Using the machine-learning models, a first depth value associated with the first object and a second depth value associated with the second object may be determined. Based on the first depth value and the second depth value, a spatial relationship between the first object and the second object may be determined. Metadata associated with the first image may be generated. The metadata may indicate the spatial relationship between the first object and the second object.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method and system for identifying locations in photographs using topographic techniques is disclosed. The method comprises receiving an image; in response to receiving the image, generating a depth map of the image; removing non-geographic features from the depth map; generating a topographic map based on the depth map; modifying the topographic map to represent each pixel by height differential; and comparing the modified topographic map to a modified global topographic map to determine a location of the image.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method and system for near field communication authentication sharing techniques is disclosed. The method comprises providing user credentials to access an application on a first device; sending a request to share the authentication with a second device; in response to the request, receiving an authentication code; and transmitting the authentication code to the second device, wherein sharing enables the second device to access the application on the second device without providing user credentials.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method and apparatus for just-in-time transcoding. The method comprises receiving at a media server, video content, wherein the video content comprises a plurality of key frames and delta frames; generating, in response to receiving the video content, metadata, wherein the metadata is a lookup table of the plurality of key frames; storing the video content and the metadata; receiving a first request to view video content; generating a playlist for the video content; receiving a second request to view a video segment of the video content; and transcoding the video segment; and transmitting the transcoded video segment.
Abstract:
A server for providing a generic actor system container application comprising: status and control graphical user interfaces, a listener service, a cluster manager, an actor registry and discovery service, a system configurator, a plurality of handles, a plurality of listeners, and a plurality of generic actors, wherein the generic actor system container application is configured to: receive information associated with a plurality of customized domain specific actors; receive a plurality of domain specific connection information; generate the plurality of domain specific actors based on the information associated with the plurality of customized domain specific actors; register the plurality of domain specific actors; and execute and monitor a domain specific actor system using the domain specific actors based on the domain specific connection information.
Abstract:
A method of capturing photographs or videos and associated metadata. The method includes capturing a photograph or video using a mobile camera device at a shooting location and encompassing a shooting area, identifying a shooting area using positional and orientational detectors of the mobile camera device and known camera properties and recording a definition of the shooting area, and sending the captured photograph or video to a server system. Either at the mobile camera device or at the server system, the presence of peer mobile devices within the shooting area is identified using positional information reported by those peer mobile devices, and the captured photograph or video is tagged with identities associated with those peer mobile devices.
Abstract:
A method for the reorganization of messages in queuing systems is disclosed. The method comprising receiving a statement to reorganize one or more messages within an ordered data structure; translating the statement into a first set of instructions for identifying one or more messages on which to perform one or more operations, a second set of instructions for performing the one or more operations on the identified one or more messages, and a third set of instructions for storing, in a memory, the identified one or more messages after the one or more operations have been performed; executing the first set of instructions, the second set of instructions, and the third set of instructions on each message in the ordered data structure; and transmitting the operated upon messages.
Abstract:
Network analysis including dynamic smoothing, isolating non-optimally performing systems and downstream aware transactional workflows is described herein. Each of the implementations, separately or together, is able to improve network functionality.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to generating and delivering data elements out of the context of an application installation. Each data element generated by an application is transmitted to a collection server after a networked computing device has connected back to a network, and even after the application has been removed from the networked computing device. Each data element is associated with a globally unique transaction identifier. Each data element and its corresponding transaction identifier are packaged together for transmission to the collection server via one or more of a plurality of transmission pathways, including a messaging pathway. The collection server uses the transaction identifier to check whether a corresponding data element is already stored by the collection server. The data element is stored by the collection server, if not already stored.
Abstract:
A client device is coupled with a server. The client device prompts a user to enter a number associated with a mobile device, which can be the client device, and generates data including a code. The code is typically hidden from the user when the code is generated and is saved on the client device. The client device transmits the number entered by the user and the code generated by the client device to the server, which sends a message, including the code, to the mobile device associated with the number. The client device prompts the user to enter the code included in the message. Validity of the number is based on one or more factors, including the accuracy of the code entered by the user. In addition, validity of the number can also be based on whether the second user input was entered within a predetermined time limit.
