Abstract: Methods and systems for generating and using a semantic index are provided. In some examples, content data is received. The content data includes a plurality of subsets of content data. Each of the plurality of subsets of content data are labelled, based on a semantic context corresponding to the content data. The plurality of subsets of content data and their corresponding labels are stored. The plurality of subsets of content data are grouped, based on their labels, thereby generating one or more groups of subsets of content data. Further, a computing device is adapted to perform an action, based on the one or more groups of subsets of content data.

Abstract: In some examples, systems and methods for generating predicted ink strokes, using text-based semantics, are provided. Ink stroke data may be received, the ink stroke data may be input into a first model, and text data may be received from the first model. The text data may correspond to the ink stroke data. The text data and a semantic context may be input into a second model. A predicted ink stroke may be determined, from the second model. Further, an indication of the predicted ink stroke may be generated.

Abstract: In some examples, systems and methods for formatting ink are provided.

Abstract: A computing system, a method, and a computer-readable storage medium for adjusting eye gaze are described. The method includes capturing a video stream including images of a user, detecting the user's face region within the images, and detecting the user's facial feature regions within the images based on the detected face region. The method includes determining whether the user is completely disengaged from the computing system and, if the user is not completely disengaged, detecting the user's eye region within the images based on the detected facial feature regions. The method also includes computing the user's desired eye gaze direction based on the detected eye region, generating gaze-adjusted images based on the desired eye gaze direction, wherein the gaze-adjusted images include a saccadic eye movement, a micro-saccadic eye movement, and/or a vergence eye movement, and replacing the images within the video stream with the gaze-adjusted images.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to adjusting an illumination of a user depicted in one or more images when using a video conferencing application. In one example, one or more images depicting the user may be received from an image sensor. Further, an illumination of the user depicted in the one or more images may be determined to be unsatisfactory. For example, the user's face may be too bright or too dim. Accordingly, content displayed at a display device may identified and then modified. The modified content may then be rendered to a display device thereby changing the illumination of the user depicted in subsequent images. In examples, the modified content may include a graphical element, such as a ring of a specific color at least partially surrounding content rendered to and displayed at the display device.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for controlling a function of a computing system using gaze detection. In examples, one or more images of a user are received and gaze information may be determined from the received one or more images. Non-gaze information may be received when the gaze information is determined to satisfy a condition. Accordingly, a function may be enabled based on the received non-gaze information. In examples, the gaze information may be determined by extracting a plurality of features from the received one or more images, providing the plurality of features to a neural network, and determining, utilizing the neural network, a location at a display device at which a gaze of the user is directed.

Abstract: The subject application relates to a system(s) and/or methodology that facilitate vision-based projection of any image (still or moving) onto any surface. In particular, a front-projected computer vision-based interactive surface system is provided which uses a new commercially available projection technology to obtain a compact, self-contained form factor. The subject configuration addresses installation, calibration, and portability issues that are primary concerns in most vision-based table systems. The subject application also relates to determining whether an object is touching or hovering over an interactive surface based on an analysis of a shadow image.
