Abstract: Systems and method for requesting audio content that is stored in a cloud network and accessed by many different audio devices where each of the audio devices may have an optimal type of audio encoding, format, and characteristic in addition to being located in different types of listening environment that are considered by a cloud audio server when preparing audio content for transmission to a requesting audio device.

Abstract: This description describes a system for identifying individuals within a digital file. The system accesses a digital file describing the movement of unidentified individuals and detects a face for an unidentified individual at a plurality of locations in the video. The system divides the digital file into a set of segments and detects a face of an unidentified individual by applying a detection algorithm to each segment. For each detected face, the system applies a recognition algorithm to extract feature vectors representative of the identity of the detected faces which are stored in computer memory. The system applies a recognition algorithm to query the extracted feature vectors for target individuals by matching unidentified individuals to target individuals, determining a confidence level describing the likelihood that the match is correct, and generating a report to be presented to a user of the system.
