Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide at least one frame of a content item to a saliency prediction model, the saliency prediction model being trained to identify salient points of interest that appear in content items. Information describing at least a first salient point of interest that appears in the at least one frame can be obtained from the saliency prediction model. The first salient point of interest can be predicted to be of interest to users accessing the content item. A view-based projection can be applied to a region corresponding to the first salient point of interest, wherein the view-based projection enhances a quality in which the region is presented.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine that a content item is being presented through a display screen of the computing device. Information describing one or more salient points of interest that appear during presentation of the content item are determined, wherein the salient points of interest are predicted to be of interest to one or more users accessing the content item. The presentation of at least a first salient point of interest is enhanced during presentation of the content item based at least in part on the information.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can obtain a spherical media content item that captures at least one scene from a plurality of different positions. A three-dimensional shape having a plurality of faces is determined, each face being associated with a respective set of original boundaries. A respective set of expanded boundaries for one or more of the plurality of faces is determined. Respective portions of the spherical media content item are mapped to each of the one or more faces, wherein a first portion of the spherical media content item is mapped to a first face having a set of expanded boundaries.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine at least one salient point of interest in a frame of a content item based at least in part on a saliency prediction model, the saliency prediction model being trained to identify salient points of interest that appear in content items; determine a barrel projection representation for the frame; and apply a view-based projection to the barrel projection representation for the frame, wherein the view-based projection enhances a quality in which a region corresponding to the at least one salient point of interest is presented.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can present one or more base segments of a first stream of a content item in a viewport interface, the content item being composed using a set of streams that each capture at least one scene from a particular direction, wherein the viewport interface is provided through a display screen of the computing device. A determination is made that a direction of the viewport interface has changed to a different direction during playback of a first base segment of the first stream. One or more offset segments of a second stream that correspond to the different direction are presented in the viewport interface, the offset segments being offset from the set of base segments of the first stream.
