Publication number: 20200394666Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for matching a buyer and a seller on a market place system and generating calibrated user profiles. In one such system a plurality of subjective estimations of value is received. The subjective estimations of value are a measure between a predetermined minimum value and a predetermined maximum value. A user profile is generated. A plurality of user actions corresponding to the plurality of subjective estimations of value is received. The user profile is calibrated based on the plurality of user actions.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2020Publication date: December 17, 2020Applicant: eBay Inc.Inventors: Elizabeth Churchill, Bryan Kent Ressler, Atish Das Sarma, Michael Gilbert

Patent number: 10251232Abstract: A dynamic light display may include an array of lighting elements behind a translucent material. The array of lighting elements may be controlled by an electronic controller which controls activation and deactivation as well as intensity levels of the individual lighting elements of the array. The electronic controller may generate dynamically moving light shapes which move around on the array. The dynamically moving light shapes are diffused through the translucent material to produce dynamic light display sequences, which may serve a wide range of applications.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2018Date of Patent: April 2, 2019Assignee: COGNICOLOR, LLCInventor: Bryan Kent Ressler

Patent number: 9928412Abstract: A large synthetic 3D human body model dataset using real-world body size distributions is created. The model dataset may follow real-world body parameter distributions. Depth sensors can be integrated into mobile devices such as tablets, cellphones, and wearable devices. Body measurements for a user are extracted from a single frontal-view depth map using joint location information. Estimates of body measurements are combined with local geometry features around joint locations to form a robust multi-dimensional feature vector. A fast nearest-neighbor search is performed using the feature vector for the user and the feature vectors for the synthetic models to identify the closest match. The retrieved model can be used in various applications such as clothes shopping, virtual reality, online gaming, and others.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2015Date of Patent: March 27, 2018Assignee: eBay Inc.Inventors: Qiaosong Wang, Robinson Piramuthu, Vignesh Jagadeesh, Bryan Kent Ressler

Patent number: 8330802Abstract: The stereo movie editing technique described herein combines knowledge of both multi-view stereo algorithms and human depth perception. The technique creates a digital editor, specifically for stereographic cinema. The technique employs an interface that allows intuitive manipulation of the different parameters in a stereo movie setup, such as camera locations and screen position. Using the technique it is possible to reduce or enhance well-known stereo movie effects such as cardboarding and miniaturization. The technique also provides new editing techniques such as directing the user's attention and easier transitions between scenes.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Microsoft Corp.Inventors: Sanjeev J. Koppal, Sing Bing Kang, Charles Lawrence Zitnick, III, Michael F. Cohen, Bryan Kent Ressler
