Abstract: When a user creates a new video exchange session via an online system, the user specifies an activity for the video exchange session. The activity may specify a name for the video exchange session, as well as other thematic content (e.g., visual effects, backgrounds) displayed via the video exchange session. The online system trains a machine learned model that predicts a likelihood that other users will accept an invitation to join the video exchange session if a certain activity is specified for the video exchange session. The online system may then use these likelihoods to rank and sort the activities for the user or to highlight activities with threshold likelihoods.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for configurable group-based media stream transmission allow media configurations to define how media (e.g., video data, audio data) is transmitted among different participant groups for an online communication session. In some embodiments, meeting participants may be assigned into either a presenter group or an audience group. The online communication session may be configured such that both video and audio data captured at the device of a presenter is shared with both the other presenters and the audience, while audio and/or video data captured at the devices of the audience is shared with only the presenters, but not the other members of the audience. As a result, the audience members are able to communicate with the presenters during the presentation but cannot communicate with the other members of the audience.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for generating meeting insights based on media data and device input data. For example, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed system utilizes analyzes media data including audio data or video data and inputs to client devices associated with a meeting to determine a portion of the meeting (e.g., a portion of the media data) that is relevant for a user. In response to determining a relevant portion of the meeting, the system generates an electronic message including content related to the relevant portion of the meeting. The system then provides the electronic message to a client device of the user. For instance, in one or more embodiments, the system generates a meeting summary, meeting highlights, or action items related to the media data to provide to the client device of the user.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software to provide intelligent detection and automatic correction of erroneous audio settings in a video conference. Electronic conferences can often be the source of frustration and wasted resources as participants may be forced to contend with extraneous sounds, such as background/ambient noises, or conversations not intended for the conference, provided by an endpoint that should be muted. Similarly, participants may speak with the intention of providing their speech to the conference while their associated endpoint is muted. As a result, the conference may be awkward and lack a productive flow while endpoints are erroneously muted or non-muted. By intelligently processing at least the video portion of a video conference, endpoints/participants may be prompted to mute/unmute or automatically muted/unmuted.

A fragmentation score of the target meeting location may represent less fragmentation than fragmentation scores for other candidate meeting locations.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is presented for profiling an unknown speaker. A DNN-based frame selection allows the system to select the relevant frames necessary to provide a reliable speaker characteristic estimation. A frame selection module selects those frames that contain relevant information for estimating a given speaker characteristic and thereby contributes to the accuracy and the low latency of the system. Real-time speaker characteristics estimation allows the system to estimate the speaker characteristics from a speech segment of accumulated selected frames at any given time. The frame level processing contributes to the low latency as it is not necessary to wait for the whole speech utterance to predict a speaker characteristic but rather a speaker characteristic is estimated from only a few reliable frames. Different stopping criteria also contribute to the accuracy and the low latency of the system.

Abstract: In various examples, when a local user initiates an instance of a video conference application, the user may be provided with a user interface (UI) that displays an icon corresponding to the user as well as several other icons corresponding to participants in the instance of the video conference application. As the users converse, the local user may find that a particular participant is speaking loudly compared to the other remote users. The local user may then select an icon corresponding to the particular participant and move the icon away from the local user's icon in the UI. Based on moving the remote user's icon away from the local user's icon, the system may reduce the output volume of the audio data for the participant. Further, if the local user moves the participant icon closer to the local user's icon, the volume for the participant may be increased.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for configurable group-based media streams during communication session. Group-based media streams allow a meeting administrator to define how media (e.g., video data, audio data) is shared among meeting participants by assigning the meeting participants to different participant groups. In some embodiments, meeting participants may be assigned into either a presenter group or an audience group. The meeting may be configured such that both video and audio data captured at the device of a presenter is shared with both the other presenters and the audience, while audio and/or video data captured at the devices of the audience is shared with only the presenters, but not the other members of the audience. As a result, the audience members are able to communicate with the presenters during the presentation but cannot communicate with the other members of the audience.
