Publication number: 20240137613Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for tailoring related episode content within an episode, thereby improving a user's experience. In response to receiving a request for an episode, several factors may be considered when determining how much of the related episode content to provide. These factors may include information such as whether the user has already viewed a previous episode, the elapsed time since viewing the previous episode and a user preference. Related episode content may be modified to remove portions previously viewed by a user, depending on factors such as the elapsed time and a user preference.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Ross Gilson, Michael Sallas, Chris Bastian, Slade Mitchell, Amit Garg, John Leddy

Publication number: 20240127522Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to generating expressive avatars using multi-modal three-dimensional face modeling and tracking. One example includes a computer system comprising a processor coupled to a storage system that stores instructions. Upon execution by the processor, the instructions cause the processor to receive initialization data describing an initial state of a facial model. The instructions further cause the processor to receive a plurality of multi-modal data signals. The instructions further cause the processor to perform a fitting process using the initialization data and the plurality of multi-modal data signals. The instructions further cause the processor to determine a set of parameters based on the fitting process, wherein the determined set of parameters describes an updated state of the facial model.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Harpreet Singh SAWHNEY, Benjamin Eliot LUNDELL, Anshul Bhavesh SHAH, Calin CRISTIAN, Charles Thomas HEWITT, Tadas BALTRUSAITIS, Mladen RADOJEVIC, Kosta GRUJCIC, Ivan STOJILJKOVIC, Paul Malcolm MCILROY, John Ishola OLAFENWA, Jouya JADIDIAN, Kenneth Mitchell JAKUBZAK
