Patent number: 11954148Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to select reference sub-fingerprints for comparison to query sub-fingerprints based on a determination that a query sub-fingerprint is a match with a reference sub-fingerprint, generate a count vector that stores total counts of matches between the query sub-fingerprints and different subsets of the reference sub-fingerprints, each of the different subsets being aligned to the query sub-fingerprints at a different offset from a reference point, each of the different offsets being mapped by the count vector to a different total count, calculate a maximum count among the total counts, a median of the total counts, and a difference between the maximum count and the median of the total counts, and classify the reference sub-fingerprints as a match with the query sub-fingerprints based on the difference between the maximum count in the count vector and the median.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Gracenote, Inc.Inventors: Robert Coover, Jeffrey Scott, Konstantinos Antonios Dimitriou

Patent number: 11871075Abstract: The present disclosure provides audio playing and transmitting methods and apparatuses, so as to reduce a playback delay of a control apparatus. An audio playing method provided the embodiment of the present disclosure includes: receiving a first system time data packet transmitted from a smart television, wherein the first system time data packet includes a first system time of the smart television at a sound transmission start time; calculating a difference serving as a first difference between a current second system time of a control apparatus and the first system time; receiving audio data transmitted from the smart television; calculating, according to the first difference, a network delay of transmission of the audio data between the smart television and the control apparatus; and abandoning the audio data when the network delay is greater than a preset threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2021Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Hisense Visual Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ziquan Song, Xiujuan Pang

Patent number: 11816773Abstract: Example methods for generating an animated character in dance poses to music may include generating, by at least one processor, a music input signal based on an acoustic signal associated with the music, and receiving, by the at least one processor, a model output signal from an encoding neural network. A current generated pose data is generated using a decoding neural network, the current generated pose data being based on previous generated pose data of a previous generated pose, the music input signal, and the model output signal. An animated character is generated based on a current generated pose data; and the animated character caused to be displayed by a display device.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Gurunandan Krishnan Gorumkonda, Hsin-Ying Lee, Jie Xu

Patent number: 11704088Abstract: Intelligent control method and device, and electronic device are provided. The method includes transmitting display data and audio data in real time for a projection device through a data channel connected to the projection device; monitoring a state of the data channel and an output state of the audio data on the projection device; and controlling the audio data transmitted in real time to be switched to a playback device for output if the state of the data channel is a connected state and the output state of the audio data on the projection device is an ineffective output state.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2022Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: LENOVO (BEIJING) CO., LTD.Inventors: Jing Li, Liang Zhang
