  • Publication number: 20240037809
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing augmented reality-based makeup. The program and method provide for receiving a request to present augmented reality content in association with an image captured by a device camera, the image depicting a user's face; accessing an augmented reality content item applying makeup to the face, the augmented reality content configured to generate a mesh for tracking plural regions of the face and to present available makeup products with respect to the plural regions; presenting the augmented reality content item in association with the face depicted in the image; receiving user input selecting a region of the plural regions; determining a set of available makeup products corresponding to the selected region; and updating presentation of the augmented reality content item based on the set of available makeup products.

  • Publication number: 20230043911
    Abstract: Discovering relevant concepts and context for content nodes to determine a user's intent includes identifying one or more concept candidates in a content node based at least in part on one or more statistical measures, and matching concepts in a concept association map against text in the content node. The concept association map represents concepts, concept metadata, and relationships between the concepts. The one or more concept candidates are ranked to create a ranked one or more concept candidates based at least in part on a measure of relevance. The ranked one or more concept candidates is expanded according to one or more cost functions. The expanded set of concepts is stored in association with the content node.

  • Publication number: 20220101416
    Abstract: Augmented reality content item templates may be used to generate augmented reality content items that are executable to display content corresponding to products offered for purchase to users of a client application. The augmented reality content item templates may include regions that may be populated according to information related to individual products. In this way an augmented reality content item template may be used to generate augmented reality content items that are customized based on the information about the individual products. The augmented reality content item templates may be classified according to a classification system such that augmented reality content item templates corresponding to a respective classification may be used to generate augmented reality content items for products that also correspond to the respective classification.

  • Patent number: 9110985
    Abstract: A method for generating a conceptual association graph from structured content includes grouping content nodes into one or more topically biased clusters, the content nodes comprising structured digital content and unstructured digital content, the grouping based at least in part on the connectedness of each content node member to other content node members in the same cluster. The method also includes, responsive to the grouping, tagging the content nodes with one or more descriptive concepts. The method also includes, responsive to the tagging, establishing one or more associations between the one or more concepts, the one or more associations indicating a relevance of the one or more associations, the indicating based at least in part on patterns of co-occurrence of concepts in the tagged content nodes.
