Abstract: Keyword localization digital image search techniques are described. These techniques support an ability to indicate “where” a corresponding keyword is to be expressed with respect to a layout in a respective digital image resulting from a search query. The search query may also include an indication of a size of the keyword as expressed in the digital image, a number of instances of the keyword, and so forth. Additionally, the techniques and systems as described herein support real time search through use of keyword signatures.

Abstract: Object search techniques for digital images are described. In the techniques described herein, semantic features are extracted on a per-object basis form a digital image. This supports location of objects within digital images and is not limited to semantic features of an entirety of the digital image as involved in conventional image similarity search techniques. This may be combined with indications a location of the object globally with respect to the digital image through use of a global segmentation mask, use of a local segmentation mask to capture post and characteristics of the object itself, and so on.

Abstract: In implementations of multi-resolution color-based image search, an image search system determines a color vector for a query image based on a color histogram of the query image by concatenating two color histograms having different resolutions. The image search system can compute distance measures between the color vector of the query image and color vectors of candidate images. The image search system can select one or more of the candidate images to return based on the distance measures utilizing the distance measures as indication of color similarity of the candidate images to the query image.

Abstract: Text-to-visual machine learning embedding techniques are described that overcome the challenges of conventional techniques in a variety of ways. These techniques include use of query-based training data which may expand availability and types of training data usable to train a model. Generation of negative digital image samples is also described that may increase accuracy in training the model using machine learning. A loss function is also described that also supports increased accuracy and computational efficiency by losses separately, e.g., between positive or negative sample embeddings a text embedding.

Abstract: Multi-modal differential search with real-time focus adaptation techniques are described that overcome the challenges of conventional techniques in a variety of ways. In one example, a model is trained to support a visually guided machine-learning embedding space that supports visual intuition as to “what” is represented by text. The visually guided language embedding space supported by the model, once trained, may then be used to support visual intuition as part of a variety of functionality. In one such example, the visually guided language embedding space as implemented by the model may be leveraged as part of a multi-modal differential search to support search of digital images and other digital content with real-time focus adaptation which overcomes the challenges of conventional techniques.

Abstract: Visually guided machine-learning language model and embedding techniques are described that overcome the challenges of conventional techniques in a variety of ways.

Abstract: Content creation suggestion techniques are described. In one or more implementations, techniques are implemented to generate suggestions that are usable to guide creative professionals in the creation of content such as images, video, sound, multimedia, and so forth. A variety of techniques are usable to generate suggestions for the content professionals. In a first such example, suggestions are based on shared characteristics of images obtained by users of a content sharing service, e.g., licensed by the users. In another example, suggestions are generated by the content sharing service based on keywords used to locate the images. In a further example, suggestions are generated based on data described communications performed using social network services. In yet another example, recognition of failure of search is used to generate suggestions. A variety of other examples are also contemplated and described herein.
