Abstract: Images are displayed in an album mode in which an image occupying a focus position is separated by bars from adjacent images in the album. The bars serve as a visual separator between the images and signify to a user that the images can be vertically scrolled. If the focus image occupies less than the full height of the screen, then part of the adjacent images are shown above and below the focus image. If the focus image occupies the full height of the screen, then the image is reduced in size to occupy less than the full height, causing the adjacent images to also be displayed. If the user scrolls the image, the image reduction decreases linearly with the scrolling until the image is shown at full height. Continued scrolling causes the image to move off the screen and the previous or next image to be displayed.

Abstract: An image and the maximum number of tokens for a to-be-created image caption are received in a computing system. Font size of graphical image of the token is calculated from the maximum number of tokens and the dimension of desired input image for prediction-style image classification technique. Desired input image is divided into first and second portions.

Next token of the image caption is predicted by classifying the 2-D symbol using the prediction-style image classification technique. 2-D symbol is modified by appending the graphical image of just-predicted token to the existing image caption in the second portion, if termination condition for image caption creation is false. Next token is repeatedly predicted until termination condition becomes true.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described for generating a textual narrative based on a set of input images. In one scenario, the end user captures the set of input images while visiting one or more locations. The generated narrative describes the user's travel experience at those locations in a cohesive manner.

The technique can therefore be said to reuse common elements in the travel narratives of others in describing the user's own set of input images.

Abstract: Fluid design keyframes are markers used to illustrate and control design changes across the potentially infinite number of screen, device, and window sizes available in digital space. Currently, designers struggle to anticipate how their designs will function across these various sizes, which then causes them to inadequately build for all potential digital presentation possibilities. Through using fluid design keyframes, designers can present their designs with greater precision across these size variations. This invention will provide designers with a space to move through all the sizes in which a design might exist, as well as allowing them to see where aspects of their designs change as presentation sizes change and to exert control over those changes. Thusly, fluid design keyframes create a new and novel way for designers to interact with and present their work.

Abstract: Images are displayed in an album mode in which an image occupying a focus position is separated by bars from adjacent images in the album. The bars serve as a visual separator between the images and signify to a user that the images can be vertically scrolled.
