  • Patent number: 10489688
    Abstract: Techniques and systems are described to determine personalized digital image aesthetics in a digital medium environment. In one example, a personalized offset is generated to adapt a generic model for digital image aesthetics. A generic model, once trained, is used to generate training aesthetics scores from a personal training data set that corresponds to an entity, e.g., a particular user, group of users, and so on. The image aesthetics system then generates residual scores (e.g., offsets) as a difference between the training aesthetics score and the personal aesthetics score for the personal training digital images. The image aesthetics system then employs machine learning to train a personalized model to predict the residual scores as a personalized offset using the residual scores and personal training digital images.

  • Patent number: 10460375
    Abstract: Device and method for implementing a vehicle sharing reward program. The present invention provides for a cost-sharing plan where two or more constituencies share the rental cost associated with a user who rents a shared vehicle in a vehicle sharing program. This results in a reimbursement of the rental cost to the user. When enrolling in the vehicle sharing reward program, the user is given a health prescription to adhere to on any trip taken while using a shared vehicle. On a selected travel route, the user visits a vehicle sharing station, where the sharing station includes a kiosk that the user uses to check-in and upload relevant information such as distance traveled and locations visited. By complying with the health prescription issued to the user, the user can have its total rental cost reimbursed.

  • Publication number: 20190213474
    Abstract: Various embodiments describe frame selection based on training and using a neural network. In an example, the neural network is a convolutional neural network trained with training pairs. Each training pair includes two training frames from a frame collection. The loss function relies on the estimated quality difference between the two training frames. Further, the definition of the loss function varies based on the actual quality difference between these two frames. In a further example, the neural network is trained by incorporating facial heatmaps generated from the training frames and facial quality scores of faces detected in the training frames. In addition, the training involves using a feature mean that represents an average of the features of the training frames belonging to the same frame collection. Once the neural network is trained, a frame collection is input thereto and a frame is selected based on generated quality scores.

  • Publication number: 20190197689
    Abstract: A medical image comparison method is firstly to obtain plural images of the same body at different time points. Then, obtain a first feature point group by detecting feature points in the first image captured at a first time point, and a second feature point group by identifying feature points in the second image captured at a second time point. An overlapping image information is generated by aligning the second image with the first image according to the first and second feature point groups. Then, window areas corresponding to a first matching image and a second matching image of the overlapping image information are extracted one by one by sliding a window mask, and an image difference ratio for each of the window areas is calculated. In addition, a medical image comparison system is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20170364327
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present invention provide for one or more server computers communicatively coupled to a network and configured to: receive a request to execute a computational task, including a transformed input used to execute a computational task. A client computer transforms the original input into the transformed input, using an affine mapping where the transformed input is a one-to-one equivalent to the original input (but which can't be inferred by the server computer), and according to a user selection limiting the computational complexity of the mapping according to resource constraints on the client. The server may then execute the computational task and transmit a result to the client to apply an inverse affine mapping, and receive a response which verifies that the computational task result is complete and valid.

  • Patent number: 9848129
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system that can incorporate information into captured images. The system includes a first encoder that can process image information captured from an image component and a second encoder that can process information collected from a sensor. The system further includes a synthesizer to combine the outputs from both the first encoder and the second encoder. The synthesizer can then generate an output and transmit it to a decoder, which decodes the generated output and then transmits the decoded output to a display. The display then visually presents the decoded output to a user. By this arrangement, the system enables a user to view information collected by the sensor and the captured image at the same time.
