  • Patent number: 12106590
    Abstract: A computer implemented method, system, and non-transitory computer-readable device that may be used in a remote deposit environment. Upon receiving a user request, based on interactions with the UI, the method implements an electronic deposit of a financial instrument by activating a camera on the client device to generate a live video stream of image data of a field of view of at least one camera, wherein the live video stream includes imagery of at least a portion of each side of the financial instrument. The method continues by extracting data fields based on the formation of image objects of each side of the financial instrument from the live video stream of image data. A flip detection pauses the forming of image objects during the flip. The extracted data fields are communicated to a remote deposit server to complete the remote deposit.

  • Patent number: 12095837
    Abstract: Normalized resolutions are determined for first and second regions of interest of an initial video stream captured by a video capture device located within a physical space. The first region of interest is associated with a first conference participant within the physical space and the second region of interest is associated with a second conference participant within the physical space. Instructions are transmitted to the video capture device to cause the video capture device to capture, at the normalized resolutions, a first video stream associated with the first region of interest and a second video stream associated with the second region of interest. The first and second video streams conform sizes and quality levels of the first and second conference participants within separate user interface tiles of a conferencing software user interface to which the first and second video streams are output.

  • Patent number: 12094204
    Abstract: A system including at least one aerially mounted camera and at least one processor performs a method for selecting a location to place a virtual tripwire onto grid points of a geocoordinate grid. The processor(s) directs a camera to capture a series of images within the camera's field of view. The processor(s) identifies one or more objects of interest within the images and determines movements of the objects through the series of images. The processor(s) identifies directions of travel of the objects of interest. The processor(s) further determines a vector of direction of travel for each object of interest on the grid. The processor(s) then determines at least one candidate location for placement of the virtual tripwire and automatically selects a location for placement of the virtual tripwire based at least on the vector of direction of travel for an object of interest.

  • Patent number: 12067705
    Abstract: A method for detecting data defects and a computing device applying the method obtains a test image for analysis. A field to which the test image relates is determined. Based on the field, a target convolutional layer is determined from a convolutional neural network. The target convolutional layer is used to extract features of the test image. A target score of the test image and a score threshold corresponding to the field are determined. If the target score is less than the score threshold, it is determined that the test image reveals defects, thereby improving an accuracy of defect detection.

  • Patent number: 12033408
    Abstract: A text recognition system receives a prompt and, based on the prompt, causes a trained region encoder to determine a first region of interest of an image file. The system modifies a first image associated with the first region of interest (e.g., parsed out from the first region) to generate a data augmentation entity that includes a modified image. Using a trained instance encoder, the system generates a first set of visual instances corresponding to the first region of interest image and a second set of visual instances corresponding to the data augmentation entity. The system generates the corresponding first and second sequences. By executing a self-supervised contrastive loss function on the first and second sequences, the system automatically updates a continual knowledge distillation model of the trained region encoder. The system provides the first sequence to an instance decoder to generate output text in response to the prompt.

  • Patent number: 12008318
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to the automatic generation of captions for visual media, including photos, photo albums, non-live video, and live video. The visual media may be analyzed to determine contextual information (such as location information, people and objects in the video, time, etc.). A system may integrate this information with information from the user's social network and a personalized language model built using public-facing language from the user. The personalized language model captures the user's way of speaking to make the generated captions more detailed and personalized. The language model may account for the context in which the video was generated. The captions maybe used to simplify and encourage content generation, and may also be used to index visual media, rank the media, and recommend the media to users likely to engage with the media.
