Publication number: 20150104114Abstract: The present invention relates to photo processing. Disclosed is a method for processing photos from multiple sources and its apparatus. In the present invention, the method of processing photos from multiple sources include: obtaining photo files from at least two sources; for the obtained photo files, merging the photo files originating from the same primitive photo into one photo object for post-processing in the unit of photo objects, each photo object contains pointer(s) to the photo file(s) corresponding with the photo object. In the present invention, while substantial contents of photo files from different sources are identical, the photo files are merged into one photo object, then users can operate in the unit of photo objects, a system automatically processes respective files of the photo objects according to different operation types, and users do not need to care about the detail of the level of the photo files, such as the sources of the photo files etc., which simplifies the user operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2014Publication date: April 16, 2015Inventors: Tian BAI, Yue ZHUGE, Wen-Liang XIAO, Peng QIN, Xiao-Bin ZHANG, Wei-Fan CHEN

Patent number: 8090679Abstract: An approach for systematically and objectively assessing the health of a web site, or other complex system, using two layers of information. A scoring method is used to provide an objective qualitative judgment, together with detailed areas of analysis if desired. A set of metrics is identified, and a health score for each metric is calculated based upon assessment parameters or angles, based upon the actual data and upon the expectations. The overall health score of the system is then calculated as a composite metric based upon the individual metric health scores. A total score, together with a visual representation of the individual metric scores, is presented to the end user. The two layers of information utilized in the general framework include the domain (which determines the set of metrics and assessment parameters, e.g., web site analysis) and the model (or processing desired, e.g., a scoring model or alert model).Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2008Date of Patent: January 3, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Yue Zhuge, Kun Wu

Patent number: 7912637Abstract: Driving directions can be helpful if in addition to spatial information, landmark information is provided. Landmarks assist in adding context to directions as well as allowing for a greater likelihood of success of an operator following directions. There can be employment of physical identification of landmarks as well as processing regarding the utility of a landmark in regards to driving directions. Driving directions can be highly useful if integrated landmarks relate to knowledge possessed by an operator of a vehicle. Landmark based driving direction can be integrated with advertisements that relate to the directions.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2007Date of Patent: March 22, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Eric J. Horvitz, Tanya Lisa Swartz, Jeffrey D. Couckuyt, Eyal Ofek, Yue Zhuge, Zhenyu Qian, Xin Wu, Jin Li, Steve Lombardi, Joseph Schwartz, Alan Paulin
