  • Publication number: 20240153303
    Abstract: Some aspects of the technology described herein perform identity identification on faces in a video. Object tracking is performed on detected faces in frames of a video to generate tracklets. Each tracklet comprises a sequence of consecutive frames in which each frame includes a detected face for a person. The tracklets are clustered using face feature vectors for detected faces of each tracklet to generate a plurality of clusters. Information is stored in an identity datastore, including a first identifier for a first identity in association with an indication of frames from tracklets in a first cluster from the plurality of clusters.

  • Publication number: 20240037149
    Abstract: Techniques for recommending hashtags, including trending hashtags, are disclosed. An example method includes accessing a graph. The graph includes video nodes representing videos, historical hashtag nodes representing historical hashtags, and edges indicating associations among the video nodes and the historical hashtag nodes. A trending hashtag is identified. An edge is added to the graph between a historical hashtag node representing a historical hashtag and a trending hashtag node representing the trending hashtag, based on a semantic similarity between the historical hashtag and the trending hashtag. A new video node representing a new video is added to the video nodes of the graph. A graph neural network (GNN) is applied to the graph, and the GNN predicts a new edge between the trending hashtag node and the new video node. The trending hashtag is recommended for the new video based on prediction of the new edge.

  • Publication number: 20230377339
    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for generating temporally consistent manipulated videos. A method of generating temporally consistent manipulated videos comprises receiving a target appearance and an input digital video including a plurality of frames, generating a plurality of target appearance frames from the plurality of frames, training a video prediction network to generate a digital video wherein a subject of the digital video has its appearance modified to match the target appearance, providing the input digital video to the video prediction network, and generating, by the video prediction network, an output digital video wherein the subject of the output digital video has its appearance modified to match the target appearance.

  • Publication number: 20230140369
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for extracting moments of interest (e.g., video frames, video segments) from a video. In an example embodiment, independent and/or orthogonal machine learning models are used to extract different types of features considering different modalities, and each frame in the video is assigned an importance score for each model. The importance scores for each model are combined into an aggregated importance score for each frame in the video. Depending on the embodiment, the aggregated importance scores are used to visualize the score per frame, identify moments of interest, automatically crop down the video into a highlight reel, browse or visualize the moments of interest within the video, and/or search across multiple videos.

  • Publication number: 20220391450
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for enhanced similarity search. In an implementation, a search environment includes one or more computing hardware, software, and/or firmware components in support of enhanced similarity search. The one or more components identify a modality for a similarity search with respect to a query object. The components generate an embedding for the query object based on the modality and based on connections between the query object and neighboring nodes in a graph.
