The artificial neural network is able to identify motion in the video using the joint semantic vectors generated for the features extracted from the video.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2021Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Xingyu Liu, Hailin Jin, Joonyoung Lee

Patent number: 11805009Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards techniques for adjusting a network connection of an accessory. In some examples, the computing device can determine that the accessory is not connected to a network (e.g., the same network to which the computing device is connected). The network may utilize a first connection type. Using a second type of connection, the computing device may determine an appropriate network for connection with the accessory. The computing device may then transmit instructions to the accessory, using the second type of connection, to adjust its network connection to be connected to the determined network. The determined network may use the first connection type.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2018Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Franco Travostino, Keith W.
