Abstract: A method, apparatus, computer program product and computer accessible code configured to link or otherwise associate content filters with a multimedia presentation, e.g., a movie. The content filter data includes an identifier value with an aspect ratio identifier or as a function of an aspect ratio for a particular multimedia presentation associated with the filter information. In one implementation, association between a filter set and a multimedia presentation involves a filtering application that searches a particular multimedia presentation to locate aspect ratio information and further searches filter information for a matching aspect ratio identifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods for searching, identifying, scoring, and providing access to companion media assets for a primary media asset are disclosed. In response to a request for companion content, metadata within a predefined time period of a play position when the request was made, is downloaded. A dynamic search template that contains search parameters based on the downloaded metadata is generated. In response to the search conducted using the search template, a plurality of companion media assets are identified and then verified. A trust score for the companion media asset is accessed. The trust score may be analyzed and modified based on its contextual relationship to the play position of the primary media asset. If the trust score is within a rating range, then a link to access the companion media asset, or a specific segment or play position within the companion media asset, is provided.

Abstract: This invention provides a vision system camera, and associated methods of operation, having a multi-core processor, high-speed, high-resolution imager, FOVE, auto-focus lens and imager-connected pre-processor to pre-process image data provides the acquisition and processing speed, as well as the image resolution that are highly desirable in a wide range of applications. This arrangement effectively scans objects that require a wide field of view, vary in size and move relatively quickly with respect to the system field of view. This vision system provides a physical package with a wide variety of physical interconnections to support various options and control functions. The package effectively dissipates internally generated heat by arranging components to optimize heat transfer to the ambient environment and includes dissipating structure (e.g. fins) to facilitate such transfer.

For example, a processing system having at least one processor may obtain a plurality of video clips of a user, determine at least one goal of the user for a production of a video from the plurality of video clips, determine at least one audience preference of an audience, and compose the video comprising at least one video clip of the plurality of video clips of the user in accordance with the at least one goal of the user and the at least one audience preference. The processing system may then upload the video to a network-based publishing platform.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques of editing a video. The techniques described in the present disclosure comprise converting a to-be-edited video comprising a plurality of frames into an image sequence comprising a plurality of images, wherein a resolution of each image in the image sequence is lower than a resolution of a corresponding frame in the to-be-edited video; generating a script of editing the to-be-edited video based at least in part on selecting and editing at least some of the plurality of images in the image sequence; displaying a preview of editing effects based on the script; and sending the script to a server computing device in response to determining the preview satisfies requirements, wherein the to-be-edited video is processed by the server computing device based on the script of editing the to-be edited video.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for advanced video editing techniques using sampling patterns. In one example, a computing device can receive a selection of a clip of a video and a sampling pattern. The computing device can determine a respective number of frames to sample from the clip for each interval of time over a length of time for a new clip. For example, the computing device can determine a function corresponding the pattern that relates time and the number of frames to sample, a histogram corresponding to the pattern, or a definite integral corresponding to the pattern, among other approaches. The computing device can extract these numbers of frames from the clip and generate the new clip from the extracted frames. The computing device can present the new clip as a preview and send the new clip to other computing devices.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a video stream recommendation comprises identifying a plurality of peripheral devices monitoring zones of a physical area, the peripheral devices comprising a plurality of video cameras providing video streams of at least some of the monitored zones. The method further comprises querying a knowledge graph representing the peripheral devices and the monitored zones as ontology entities connected by edges representing physical paths between the monitored zones, and by edges representing which monitored zones the peripheral devices monitor, in order to identify a set of one or more video camera(s) monitoring zones other than a selected monitored zone, as a result of the querying. The method then comprises generating a video stream recommendation based on the result of the querying.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a system and method to increase the speed of a computer determination whether a video contains a particular content. In some embodiments, the quantity of data in the video is first reduced while preserving the searched-for content. Optionally, first, the size of the data is reduced by reducing the resolution, for example resolution may be reduced without searching and/or processing the full data set. Additionally or alternatively, low quality and/or empty data is removed from the dataset. Additionally or alternatively, redundant data may be searched out and/or removed. Optionally, after data reduction, the reduced dataset is analyzed to determine if it contains the searched-for content. Optionally, an estimate is made of the probability of the full dataset containing the searched-for content.
